keeps an axle centered. try searching "3 link". same thing, 2 links to keep it in one place and the 3rd (panhard bar/trailing arm) to keep it centered up. disadvantage is that it doesnt have as much adjustability as a 4 or more link.

Panhard bar or track bar keeps the axle centered from side to side. One end mounts on the frame and the other on the axle trying to keep it in-line with your steering bar if you have a chassis mounted servo.

On a leaf spring rig it can also help w/ steering in the sense that the frame won't float back and forth over the axle when turning
