3-link w/ stock Trailing Arms?

I searched all over the forum and couldn't find a straight answer to this, but its my first post so go easy on me.

I am wondering if its worth it to setup my stock 63 rear suspension with an upper wishbone to make it a 3-link and eliminate the panhard bar. The truck probably won't be bagged but will get a big static drop, 6 inches at least. The wishbone looks like a superior locating device over the panhard bar, is there a ride and handling advantage? Mostly I just think it looks cool and would be fun to make.

It seems to me that I wouldn't have to worry about the pinion angle because the rear axle is already located by the stock trailing arms, just square it up side to side.

Thanks
