I have dropped spindles but it doesn't depend on that. It only depends on the length of the shocks eye to eye. It's a good idea to get long travel ball joints though. They help out a lot. $50 from Mid america motor works. The shocks aren't mounted so thats why there is such an angle (I couldn't wait to get the brakes on [can you blame me?])
