Static suspension ?'s

My second thread. Seems like the more I read the more options I see.

I want to do a static 4/6 drop. That looks the best to me.
68 SWB C10

So I just learned about lowering blocks today. I see the ECE kit with a drop spring. Wouldn't it be better to do a 2" block and then do a 3" or 4" spring than a 6"? Will I still need a trac bar relocated? Do I still need to relocate the shocks? Way2lo and No limits seem to have a 3" spring listed, but not a 4". Should I only look for a 5" drop in the rear?

The front I figure I will use the McGaughey's 2.5 spindle and the 1" spring, but that is not a 4" drop? So all I need there is the disc brake stuff.

Obviously I will need new shocks all the way around.

What else? Any suggestions or options I should consider?
