Talking Panhard bars

Have any of you used these in your trucks? I am going to put a set in my model A, I have a fairly warm flathead with a C4 going to 9 inch half ton axle, while I have this down to the frame I was wondering if a panhard bar would help any? Your thoughts.

If you are referring to the rods that "brace the back of the bell housing/engine to the frame on 1/2 trucks", yes. I had them on my panel and that was a strong engine..Helps with clutch chatter also on stock units.

What type of suspension are you using? They are generally not needed unless you have a 4 link with coil overs or similar.
