'72 GMC Suspension setup and vendors

OK.... so after looking around previous posts and asking a couple of questions myself, I think I know the setup I'm going to go with, but I want to double-check this setup and also get some info on vendors.

I have a '72 GMC w/leafs and I have decided to go with a 2.5/4" drop using the 4" drop leafs, 2.5 drop spindles and I'm guessing from what I have read that I should probably go with the shock relocators for the rear? So that brings up the questions...

1) Does this sound like a good setup to consider?
2) What about front shocks? I am assuming if I use a 2.5" drop spindle I will want shorter shocks? (I don't remember where the top mount is off the top of my head, so maybe this is a non-issue)
3) What vendors would you go with. I was thinking of Early Classic Enterprises since they are pretty close to home, but I've found the springs about $50 cheaper elsewhere. Are there any vendors you guys would avoid?

Thanks for the help guys... I'll get this thing back on the road yet...
