Is there a certain amount of drop with springs that you need relocators? Or will I be okay with stock location?

The only way to know 100% is to measure.

Measure a front shock installed w/full vehicle weight on the corners. Pull a front shock & measure the fully compressed + extended dimensions. The math will suggest what you should do.
