Default third link and pan hard bar?

I'm wanting to know is the direction the link is pointing and the direction the pan hard is pointing.
say that the third link is mounted to the chassis on the left side, does the pan hard have to be mounted to the right of the chassis then? or can it be on the same side?
I've searched but nothing specify on that area

I don't think it matters, but having the 3rd link on one side and the panhard bar on the other makes things easier to put into place.

I was a little confused by your question. If you are asking if the drag link and panhard can be mounted to different sides, No they can not. The drag link & panhard must be roughly the same length & angle. That way they can make a similiar arc when the suspension cycles. I've added some pics of my set up hopefully these will help you out.

Here's a pic of my axle truss with 3 link mount and a panhard mount all in one

Nope. My rear setup is on opposite sides, and my front setup is on the same side.
