Re: Rear Panhard Bar ?

Would the improvement over the 1/2 length bar be enough to justify the work???

Not saying it won't work, but I don't think there is enough room behind the axle with the spring and all there to do as you propose. The bumper brackets are in that area also. If you look at my pictures you will notice that my Panhard Bar is actually in front of the spring.
I don't know if the Model A suspension travel is enough to make a difference either.
Looks like something for your next project...
