Need advise on 3/4 drop

[ScottH]

Planning on dropping a 72 c10 soon & will be installing 3/4 drop springs.

My first question is regarding the shocks. If I buy dropped shocks do I need relocator kits as well? Or can I go with stock shocks if I install relocator kits? Or do I need both new shocks + relocate the mounts?

Second question is regarding the panhard bar. Can I use a stock bar or do I need to get an adjustable? Is it possible to cut/weld a stock bar to shorten it if needed?

Any info is appreciated.

Thanks
Scott
