Hey Desert, I recommend Western Chassis, Belltech or DJM parts, in no particular order. Although, I have had luck even with AIM products.

As for lowering parts, have you looked in this thread?

Ive bought from all the componies that chris listed. Western chassie makes the best stuff Ive ever seen. Extremly impressed. But they dont offer 3" spindles. I used DJM 3" spindles, and they look ok. Havent installed yet. I have 3" belltech spindles on the 78. They didnt fit quite as well as one would think for $300. DJM's run $186 when I bought em.
For coils, Ive used both suspension techniques [summit brand coils] and eibach progressive rates, both 2" drop. Id use either company again.
