Default Suspension Help - Founders Performance Panhard Bar

Hey everyone, already had new Bilstein shocks and 1.2" lowering springs from Strano installed, but looking to continue the work on my '95 Z's suspension. I believe I am going to go with Founders Performance parts as much as I can so I was looking at their panhard bars. After talking with their sales rep, he mentions this one (1982 - 2002 GM F-Body On-Car Adjustable Panhard Bar with Poly Bushings - Founders Performance LLC), is the most popular for ease of adjustment, while another one (On Car Adjustable Panhard Rod Kit Poly/Poly Bushings - Founders Performance LLC) is their strongest design, but due to lack of clearance at the jam nuts, harder to adjust.

Now my question to you guys is what one would you recommend and what are the pros and cons of each? I guess I don't really get the difference between the two and would appreciate your advice. I plan on using my Z for mainly cruising and maybe autocross down the line...

Thanks so much in advance!

You only have to adjust the panhard rod once to center the ear axle after you lowered the rear. So go with the stronger unit.

I bought the more popular one, 31 good reviews compared to 7 helped me deside. I bought all Founders Performance suspension parts for my IROC very happy with them.
