How much travel do you get in the rear. The pan-hard should be longer and horizontal to the ground at ride height or the suspension will shift to the drivers side on lift, probably binding up. There's more to it than sitting on the ground. Having said that your going to have to finish that bag-bridge, old cars are HEAVY! Its only a matter of miles 'till those mounts bend the fuck up. Looks awesome on the outside though..

 

you talk about this?

 

no abla spanish.

 

la suspencion original es de un galaxi 72, pero ami me gusta manejar mi auto con la parte trasera casi en el suelo y cuando esta en esa posicion la barra esta casi orizontal pero el tamaño se cambio tambien por la diferencia de medidas de el chasis
the original suspencion of a galaxie 72, yes, but I like to drive to the rear of my car almost on the floor, and when this happens the pan-hard is horizontal and the size of the chssis is different on a fairlane and the galaxie.

I commend you on your enginuity, but those type of three links dont work too well with a height ajustable suspension. For starters, the links are much too short as is the pan-hard bar, all adding up to trouble. Pinion-angle, wheel-base, tracking, et.al, are all compromised when your asking the suspension to cycle way beyond its design parameters.
Now, you probably dont want to redo the whole rear, but I think if you extended the pan-hard 4 -6 inches, and redid at least one mount (possibly the frame mount) so the bar was even with the ground at ride height, your car would handle better. Also, the 3rd link (top, by the pumpkin) needs to be ajustable to set the pinion angle (at ride height). This would eliminate any driveline shake you surely must get with this set up. All band-aids, but will work.
I speak from exspirence, as your set up reminds me of one of the first pnuematic systems I did many moons ago. Nothing beats a triangulated 4 link, something you should consider in the future. But for now, get your drag on!!

 

Hey, what ever works for you man.

 

man, may be, but my car is not only a pan-hard bar and 4-6 inches not have me worried
