Default Panhard rod question

So I bent my panhard rod last time I was out wheeling. I got a replacement 'adjustable' Terrafirma one.
Question is, how do you set it? The adjustment that is. I get that one end screws in and out, but where am i adjusting it to?

I don't have the answer, but if you call who you purchased it from I'm sure they could tell you. If you purchased from Lucky 8, Rovers North, or Atlantic British they are always helpful with answering these kind of questions.

2 ways, of course, as usual there's a cheap and easy, and the right way.

1st way, with the truck on flat ground and wheels straight, remove the old one, adjust the new one to length and install.

2nd way(better) Install it the 1st way and bring it to an alignment shop that knows how to work on 4x4s. They should be able to adjust it properly to keep the axle straight.

Not sure if this applies to the Rover, but maybe it's a good starting point?
