New project

I just acquired a 77 stepside in a trade. It has a 4.8 ls th350. Body is fairly straight. It needs exhaust first so I can actually start driving it and working bugs out. I’ve never owned a lowered rig any advise is much appreciated. I have no gauges I think Bluetooth to a phone will be my first step until I decide how much money I want to dump into this. I believe it’s lowered 3” and 6” he said. There are no shocks in front is that normal? Ideas and pointers are welcome. I’m also super new to anything ls swapped if their are red flags to watch for I’d appreciate the advise.

Re: New project

Thank you. I am so illiterate I’m not sure why I can’t figure out how to post pictures without them being on their side or upside down
