Will Stock Shocks work on 69 C10 with Dropped front Spindles

I am installing disc brakes along with 2 1/2 dropped spindles on 69 C10. Truck has stock height coils. Will stock shocks work? Currently has Monroe Gas Matics ( yellow shocks).If not any specific recommendations would be appreciated. new

To add a little to Keith's answer, drop spindles in no way affect the shock absorbers. Only drop springs necessitate using different shocks. Your truck using stock springs will use stock shocks.
