drop , shock and panhard bar ?

[wibilly]

droped the front 2" with spindels doing the rear with blocks 2" to 2 1/2. do I need to shorten panhard bar and relocate shock mounts? it seems to me the shocks are at to much of an angle at stock height what do those of you who know recommend thanks

No you do not need drop shocks or extensions or pan hard bar with 2" drop. Have a look at your rear axel. Is it pulled off to one side noticibly? Either to the drivers side or pass side? That's the only time you need a longer or shorter bar. Using spindles and lowering blocks, your shock mounts have not moved at all from factory. Drop shocks would be a waste of money and time.

Thanks square 78 , that's what I thought, nothing but ride height will change. I just might have to get after that and get that thing leveled out.

Yeah, what square said. Original length shocks are what you need with spindles/blocks. 2" in the rear should not move the rear end off enough to need a different pan hard bar. Although with 40+ year old springs they may have already sagged a bit. I say drop it then measure how far off center you axle is then decide if you need an adjustable bar. I believe most recommend an adjustable pan hard at 4" or 5"+ rear drop. BTW pics are required here
