Panhard adjust side to side, adjustable lowers would fix it front to back. I'd do adjustable lowers and be done
Thats what someone else said and also to replace the bushings. I might just buy the bmr adjustable lca's and this should fix this problem?

Before you buy anything, find out what the issue it. Throwing parts at it doesn't necessarily fix the issue.

True. I gotta retorque the bolts and see from there. Just frustrating

Also find all the tq specs and some parts require suspension to be loaded when tq. Also get the diff centered too. As you work on it, take some pictures under the vehicle. Post them up maybe someone will see an issue to point out.

Which is why I love this group cause someone might see something I might not. Team work!

Spoke to bmr, they said the wrong grease was used. Ordered new bushings as mine are shot due to the grease.

What type of grease are they recommending? Post pictures of the bushing.

I am sure they told you not to use petroleum based grease. Several years ago, their well-known, former Mustang suspension tech recommended this: Synthetic Polymeric Truck, Chassis and Equipment Grease, NLGI #2 which I have used for years on my poly bushings without issue.
i didnt do the install as i bought it with the lower control arms, but in the photo on the first page, the lower control arm on the driver side has red grease coming out of it.( told BMR this and they said that it for sure is the wrong kind and happens a lot) The one on the right isn't showing anything. (I have a better picture of it but you can see it on the last hole of the relocation bracket) BMR recommended a green grease so i will take apart the LCAs and panhard bar, clean up, regrease and replace. I will get the photos maybe this weekend
They also brought up that switching to a adjustable LCA might benefit the rear more but to try and replace the bushings first.

Mike! Ty for letting me know! Wasn't sure if I should ask you or not. ( some people don't want to be bothered after selling) I think its the traction control causing it
