Something to be aware of & understand.
Also, for the Panhard bar, extend the frame mount lower vs. changing the bracket on the rear housing. At or slightly below the axle centerline & parallel to the road would be better vs. above the centerline (how they were originally).

Thanks SCOTI
I'm well aware of the shock issue. I may just install the c notch kit for now and worry about the removal of the lowering blocks later. I agree that I should lower the banhard bar bracket on the frame. Are there weld on brackets available or do I have to fabricate one?
Thanks
