How much does a "normal" coil over set up bounce/move? (panhard setup)

[MustangMike67fb]

I am trying to figure out my panhard bar mounting points. I understand you want it as parallel as possible from one side to the other.

By positioning my bar to were Id like to mount it (will simulating approx ride height), I am worried when hitting a bump, my rearend with rise approx 3 inches before the panhard mounted on the rear, will hit the bottom of my frame. Will a typical set up move this much?

If this is not enough, I am considering putting an offset bend in the bar so I can mount lower while avoiding the pumpkin.

I also may consider shortening the bar so that the mount on the rear will be closer to the pumpkin allowing it to clear the frame in any clearance issues. Any thoughts? - Thank you

Remember the bar goes up with the rear end so you don't need a bunch of clearance. I think 3" would be plenty

Have you considered a Watts-link ??

2-3" of clearance is plenty both front and rear.

And ideally you want it level but in the real world that is sometimes impossible, and they still work ok. My Son's T bucket panhard is not level because the bracket on the rear would have been real tall and intruded on the gas tank, and it works fine.
