No idea - Bill Wykeham is getting it sorted for me.
I would guess it'll come from Mulfab though..?

More than likely. They make the factory ones I believe.

I have used a much simpler approach to control the sideways effect on the rear cart springs which is as effective as a panhard, yet costs next to nothing.
I simply fitted a piece of oak between the spring clamp & the chassis ( On the offside & nearside) using existing Shock absorber bracing hoop fixings, then greased the wood where the spring clamp rubs up & down as the axle moves up & down,this prevents any side movement Ive had this in place since august 2011 ( approx 10k miles) & there is no wear of the wood, there is no noise , no adverse effects & no cost.
I have posed some pics on flickr you should be able to view them at [img]http://www.flickr.com/photos/55174869@N05/[/img] sorry i don't know how to post pictures
