C20 Panhard bar for 4" rear lower

For those of you that have lowered the rear of a C20 with coil springs what did you do about a panhard bar?

For a 4" rear lowering with lowered coil springs did you use a different panhard bar?

If so, where did you get it?

I am attempting to order a 2"/4" lowering springs and shocks for my 1968 C20.

get an adjustable panhard bar so you can center the rear

Any idea where? C10 and C20 have different panhard bars. I can only find adjustable C10 panhard bars. I know there are numerous guys on here who have lowered a C20 on coil springs and I am looking for a proven solution.

I just cut my factory one, sleeved it, and welded to the correct length. You don't really need an "adjustable" bar. It's kind of a set it and forget it thing.
