keep the mount height differance within 10% of the panhards bar length. example- 20" bar = 2" max height differance.
A panhard mounted to the right side frame lowers chassis roll while a panhard mounted on the left frame rail raises during chassis roll.

doesn't really matter which side you mount the panhard to the frame. It will just unload and load the rearend depending on which way your turning. It would only really matter if you were only taking right or left turns. Say on a oval track.

If your going bag over axle and not running the triple convolute bags. You should be able to set up the panhard and have some pretty good results.

its pretty easy to just set it on your bench level and swing it through your range of motion and see what it does way before you install it.
