Panhard bracket: drop or lift?
Which is generally viewed as better dropping the bracket or lifting it. I'm looking at getting so lc rear coils so this would probably be needed.

The only 2 places that offer a 2nd Gen drop bracket are Downey and ProComp.
Downey has a 3" and ProComp has a 4". The Downey one is included in a kit that is around $150. The ProComp I'm told is $36.00, but 4", too long.
What I think you "could" do is drill a hole at 2.5" or 3" on the ProComp bracket.
We could also make you a drop bar, but that is $142.00 plus you ship us your bar for the work sonce we don't have 2nd gen cores.

Thanks
It's very possible, 2nd Gen is more likely than 4th at this point.

We send it back, we re-use what you already own to save on the cost.
Bolts into stock bracketry, the bar drops.
