Lowering Parts, What to Choose??

Hi There all Truckers
As some of you know i am buildinga 79 Chevy Longbed. My brother is going over to SEMA in November and he is going to take home a 40 feet big container with one car and a lot of parts. Im going to send him some money and i wanna buy the following parts:
3" drop spindles
Nitrous Drop Shocks
Four Link, C-notch and some other lowering stuff.
What kind of place has this the cheapest and best stuff ?
I know cheap and best dosent make sense, but you know what i meen
Is there any shops in the California area that have all i need?
Is there any other things i need to get it real low? Yes i am going to buy bagz also.. Any Air Ride sets that are cheap?

A lot of questions, but i really need your help on this

Best regards

Ahhh you don't buy things at SEMA, at least not really. Some vendors will sell for cheap in the few minutes after the 5pm shutdown at the end, but these are usually things like hats, shirts, knick-knacks etc. And theres not really anything for the 73-87's there spacific. Anyways back to your Q-

Teh best lowering stuff is the cheapest. I've used DJM and belltech 3" sprindles. Belltechs were about $300, DJM's were like $175 or less. Both required mods to fit perfect [15" rims] and both had the same looking quality to them.
