Beltech 2/4 kit HELP rear end is wagging

blackout11 · Apr 16, 2013

Ok this happened the other day im driving like 60 down the highway next thing i know rear end starts wagging from side to side. It comes and goes but is quite annoying any one else have this problem if so what do you do to fix it

Wow, did you look underneath to see if anything is disconnected? Track bar maybe?

blackout11 · Apr 16, 2013

Nope everything is fine heard a few others complain about this hoping one of them chimes in might need the adjustable panhard bar

Graygoose · Apr 16, 2013

man this is like the 5th post Ive seen about trucks with that drop getitng 'loose'...why I havent pulled the plug and done it yet.

blackout11 · Apr 16, 2013

Ya i believe they say the adjustable bar fixes it just waiting to see

ramguy11 · Apr 16, 2013

Call belltech and get the relocator bracket. You have to call and request it though.

blackout11 · Apr 16, 2013

Already got that on the truck

Yupp adjustable panhard is supposed to fix that issue

jojo750 · Apr 16, 2013

is this something that is specific to a belltech drop?
ive got the mcg deluxe kit installed (2/4) but havent experienced this yet...

hope it gets figured out.

That's pretty scary. I know with my GF 2/3 drop on my 4x4, my alignement is off slightly. It pulls to the right just a tad. Had it alligned over 4 times. Just the way the truck reacted to the drop. I don't have the adjustable panhard bar either yet.

The relocator bracket might be the problem. This problem seemed to surface just about the time they started including it with their kit. I don't know what their bracket looks like or how it is mounted. Sounds to me that the bracket is pivoting on the mounting bolt or it has some play in it causing the rear to sway.

I have never had this problem before or after the installing adjustable pan hard bar. If it's doing it now, the adjustable bar isn't going to fix it. All the bar does is shift your axle one way or the other.

the reason the bar may fix it as many are saying is probably because when they install the adjustable bar they take off the bracket like tyler mentioned

I have the beltech 2/4 kit and it didnt come with the relocation bracket but i still have that problem.... been wondering if the adj track bar would fix that also....

Hemi Joe · Apr 17, 2013

What bracket is that it links to one you weld on im getting the sphon bar

bump

should i remove the beltec bracket when my panhard bar goes on

TylerB · Apr 18, 2013

Damn I stumped then... I have never had this problem. Maybe it's defective shocks???

If you're getting the adjustable bar I say remove the bracket and see what happens.

blackout11 · Apr 18, 2013

Ya just got new springs today from them 1 was defective was sagging real bad and my bar will be here sat so i guess ill just try different things

If a locator bar with solid end bushings fixes the problem,i'd think it'd be the stock rubber bushings in the factory locator bar that are the principle problem.
They'll compress and let things move side to side,while the solid bushings in a aftermarket bar don't.

If Belltech sends a relocator bracket,i'd use it.
If you look at your bar,Dodge has a certain travel angle,and i'm assuming the Belltech relocator bracket moves the bar back into factory travel specs.

You put the bar on a steep angle,and every time you cycle the suspension,the rear-end is gonna get shoved from side to side
Just my .02
