Air ride kits for a 86 c10

I have decided that this fall I want to put air ride on my 1986 c10. Everything I have read says that AVS is a good company to go with. I found this kit

https://www.avsontheweb.com/73-87-gm...8-fast-valves/

I was wondering if anyone on here has used this kit? Besides shocks and a gauge to put in the dash is there anything else I need? or if you have used a different kit which one would you recommend?

New to air suspension so any help is welcome.

Thanks in advance
Evan

AVS has been around for a long time. this kit looks pretty complete to me. but imo there is always something else you will need while your installing it, like different fittings and more air line. also assuming you already have drop spindles and drop blocks.

switch suspension seems pretty good too

Thanks for the replay. Yes I have drop spindles already. Fittings and more air line isn't bad I just don't want any big surprises.
