71' K10 modernizing

I have a71’ K10 I plan on modernizing it and making it my daily driver. I want to convert it from a floor shift manual to a column shift automatic, upgrade the suspension, and put I’d like to replace the front hubs with electric locking hubs.

I could use suggestions and ideas on the following, please.

1. Transmission swap from manual to auto, 700r4? TH350? TH400?
2. Suspension upgrade, I’d like to keep it close to stalk ride height and have the smoothest best driver possible.
3. Front hub swop, I’d like to change the manual locking hubs to electric if possible and change the floor shifter to a dash switch as well.

Any ideas would be helpful.

Thanks
