MII front suspension kit - which kit to buy

So I'm looking to buy a MII front suspension kit for my f100. I'm looking to buy within the next week and was looking at airbagging it. Work will begin in 2 weeks so I need to make up my mind.

I have found a MII with airbag kit and was intending on buying the kit located below (middle of the page): Jim Weimer Rod Garage - Mustang II Hub to Hub Kits - Hot Rod & Street Rod Parts, Mustang II IFS, 32 Ford Rails, Hub to Hub Kits, Model A Frames

Any reason I would NOT want to buy this particular kit?

fyi, comes with 11" rotors and reinforced crossmember


I want to have the pickup sit pretty low, so I was thinking of putting the 2" Drop spindles in the kit. I'm going to be running 18" or 20" rims. To those of you who have done the conversion to a MII kit, Should I stick with standard spindle or get the 2" drop spindles? Anybody know how low I can go with standard spindles?
I don't intend on dropping the truck all the way to the ground, but i want to give it a lower aggressive stance.

Any advice is appreciated as I'd hate to get half way through the build and realize i made the wrong choice.

Looks good to me as we'll. about the same price I paid for mine 4 yrs ago for my sons 51 F1. It is bagged and 2" drop spindles and I can lay the whole truck on the running boards when aired out. Make sure you add the power steering as well.
