3" - 4" drop where to buy

I am going to finish the cab this weekend and move onto the frame and figured it is time to start buying some parts. Plan to do a 3" - 4" drop using belltech spindles and shackles for the back. The question is where is the best to buy? What type of rubber should I get and from where? Should I use polyeurithane?

Thanks
Chris

Re: 3" - 4" drop where to buy

anyone else have any input? I checked out belltechs website and it is more expensive than my local parts place. kit 3100 for the front is $320 and hanger and shakles kit 6800 for the back is $230 with no shocks or ball joints. Any toher ideas? is this a good price?

ECE seems to be the favorite of most here due to quality customer service.

I have always had great luck with Summit Racing. They are known for name brand products in plain white boxes at a great price.

My personal experience with them has been very good.
