Rear rod was created by Gromit
Excuse my stupidity but what is the rod that sits behind the rear shockers, is it the rear panhard rod or an anti roll bar ???

Weld a length of 1" angle along the panhard rods that will make it stronger.

Tubing is stil stronger than solid.

Only if they have the same mass, then the solid bar would have a much smaller diameter.

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)
