Panhard bar / trackbar risers are generally are three kinds based on how it goes on the stock riser.
BHPian Sankar recently shared this with other enthusiasts:
There is some confusion here regarding the same because of the captive nut on the 5 door’s rear axle. All Gen 4 Jimny’s, 3 door and 5, have the same rear axle and the same captive nut to secure the trackbar to the rear axle. All Gen 4 Jimny trackbar relocation brackets fit the 5 door. Even Gen 3 axles have same captive nut on the stock riser. Some risers are made to fit both Gen 3 and Gen 4 axle, the only difference is the location and size of two small holes on the side of the bracket.
Panhard bar / trackbar risers are generally are three kinds based on how it goes on the stock riser.
- Overlaps the stock riser at both front, rear and LHS and has somewhat of an more elaborate fitting. Eg: OME, MF etc.
- The other type overlaps the stock riser at the rear and LHS and the front part goes inside the stock riser. Eg: Taniguchi, Showa garage, Masterpiece, Hardrace etc.
- The type that sits inside the stock riser completely front, rear and LHS. Eg: Xshock dakar, 4xForza (which is inspired by Xshock) etc.
