Default couple questions about alignment and other crap.

Just put on Koni SAs and strano springs and got the car aligned to sam's specs. Just bought a LG single adjustable panhard bar/rod and LG lower control arms. Will I need to re-align the rear end after doing this? I know it's a dumb question but I'm retarded when it comes to this

There's not much to align with the stock rear end. You can center the rear axle using the panhard bar, and you could alter your wheelbase if you used adjustable LCA's

Adding the PHB & non-adjustable LCA's is not changing the ride height so you don't need to re-align. You can now center your lowered rear end with the new PHB, though. Some people use bob weights off the fender edges to measure, some just eyeball how far the outer edge of the tire is away from the fender lip.
