83 C10.....3/5 drop kits?

Hey guys...since its gettin to the "tear down and make it better" part of the season up north here ive been eye balling some lowering kits for my C10 to FINALLY drop it a bit. I was searching around today and found this kit. Can anyone tell me anything about the fit, quality (ride and part), reliability and final look of the truck when done. It also says it does NOT include shocks....whats a great quality and great riding shock i can get for the truck to compliment this drop kit.

I found the DJM 3"/5" Pro Drop Kit...Heres a link to the kit (would also be interested in Belltech and Mcgaughys)

Thanks guys!!

Re: 83 C10.....3/5 drop kits?

If you use drop spindles, you can use stock shocks on the front. I don't have dropped control arms or a flip kit, so I don't have an answer on any of the rest...
