Simple (complex?) lowering question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I want to drop the front 2" and the rear 4" on a 72 LWB.
Can I do this with just springs?
Will I also need -
the adj. panhard bar?
new shocks?
any other adjustments?
Thanks. I get confused easily.

Yes that can be done with just springs,Here a picture of mine 5 inch springs in rear with 3-4 inch springs in the front.No special shocks or panhard bar.Although when I redo it I am going use the drop spindles.
