a few lowering questions

Hey guys , iam new to the forums but i have a few questions about my truck , any help would be great!!!

i currently own a 1981 Blazer 2wd , with a 350ci hot cam small block
i want to lower it a fair amount , but i don't know tons about doing this...

i would like to do it all myself as a project , even if it takes a long time i would rather do it myself and have something to be proud of. ANYWAYS!

my questions are:

i was looking at installing drop spindles and drop coils to lower the front end a decent amount , but don't know much about what i would need to do this , any specific tools that are out of the ordinary , apart from wrenches and what not? could a semi-beginner to automotives even complete this job?
i dont know were i could get them installed , and like i said i would rather do it myself if possible.

my second question is , for the rear end i dont want that dramatic of a drop so i was looking at drop shackles/hangers .. is this my only option? i dont have any cutting tools to do a flip kit , so thats out of the question.

mainly iam looking for any tips on lowering my blazer , any information at all is greatly appreciated! thanks guys!!!!
