New to site and looking for advice and parts...

Hey guys so I'm new to the site and just looking for a little info/advice/parts. I just got ahold of a 72 c10 swb. Fleetside. It's on coils front and rear. I'm wanting to go for the protouring look w out breaking the bank. It's not going to be a 500+ hp road and track truck just a clean daily driver to punk the teenagers I'n town w lol. But I'm posting a pic of the stance I want or as close as possible just wandering the beat way to get there w the wheel and tire combo I'm wanting to run. I want to swap all the coils to coilovers and will be adding at the very least sway bars and a 4 link (w watts) I will be replacing front inner fender wells as well as bed tubs w my own tubs. I am willing and capable of doin any fav work necessary just haven't messed w one of these trucks and would rather learn from someone wlses mistakes/experience. I an wanting to run a 20x8/9 up front and a 22x10 I'n rear w 30/35 series tires up front and 40 series out back (as wide as possible). I do understand I will lose some turn due to tires tucking I'n fenderwell just wandering how much and what the beat route to get this stance is. Will I have to modify/build a new crossmember. Obviously I need drop spindles but how much. And will I need tubular control arms? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also I am looking for the spindles and control arms if needed and anyone has them or know where to get them the coil over u should run? Sway bars? And I also need a core support and am wanting to either swap my grille to the 68 and leave the 72 hood if anyone has any info on that or find a grille like the one on the truck I'n the pic. Again thanks and hopefully soon I will be able to post some pics of my work I'n progress. http://i1001.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1274501662
