Remember the front bar needs a kink and it is not straight! the axle sits forwards of the chassis mount, this is why some use rose joints as it stresses/streches the bushes.
I use the Jimnybits panhard rods as they have this kink in the bar, and the wall thickness is better than others.

Nope! if you look at how far back the front axle mount is compared to the chassis mount you will see why we want the kink.

And I do use longer castor corrected arms ;)
