Old lowering questions about shocks and control arm stops, can't search, so..

'84 LWB C-10, doing the 2/4 drop with 2" drop springs in the front, shackles and hangers in the rear.

1. Shocks - With a 2/4 drop, do I need to use shocks other than stock shocks? If so, are they readily available at the basic parts places or do I have to order them? Who has them for a good price?

2. Control arm stops/bumpers or what ever they're called - Do they need to be replaced, or maybe shortened for 2" drop springs?

3. Rear sway bar - I don't have a rear sway bar, was thinking of trying to find a used one. But, with hangers and shackles for a 3" or 4" drop (shackles have two holes for 1" or 2") can you still have a rear sway bar?
