Question Help! Low Buck Drop Spindle Install '69 w/ 6 Bolt Discs

alright, I'm ready to "start" the purchasing of all the components I will need to lower the front of my '69 1/2 ton. I have 2" drop springs already installed in the front and 5" drop springs out back. I want the front down a bit more and the only good choice I have is to go with drop spindles.

here's the question. what is the cheapest I can gather the necessary parts for this drop. I know I will need:
1. spindles
2. rotors
3. calipers/shoes
4. bearings
5. brake lines
6. proportioning valve
7. tie rod ends
8. ball joints

has anyone put together a "recipe" for a budget drop. furthermore, do you have p/n's, locations to purchase, etc.

or should I just bite the bullet and purchase a kit for $700-ouch!? help me out guys!!
