Your ignorance and superstition of welding will cost you an extra $180 for nothing. Cut it, and pay someone $20 to weld it. It will NOT snap.

eerrrmmm, I forgot to mention... cut it at one end and weld the collar back onto the shortened rod. just in case you were thinking of cutting a piece out of the middle of it and welding the rod!! ;o) hehehehe

Coz they a pack o wankers who think they know it all and really have no idea. They tried to tell me that I needed to take my panhard rod (which I bought from them and was supposed to be for a gemi sedan) to a suspension expert and get it fitted because I obviously had 'No idea'. All because I tried to tell them that it wouldn't fit and that they'd given me the rod for a panel van. Friggin idiots!

If any one didn't read between the lines I now have BIG issues with them.

However when I finally got the right one it looked and worked really well. (Probably a fluke on their behalf)
