Solid Axle / Front Leaf Conversion - Anyone Need a Kit So To Speak?

I have a conversion kit for a 97 f-150. Not going to say it is complete, but at least most everything is there. Have a stack of parts that were purchased to do a leaf spring conversion on a 97 front end. I'm not sure what all is required for this conversion, so I'm not sure what all is there or missing. Wondering if someone can tell me what all should be there vs. what all I have and what a kit like this should sell for. Got the truck halfway through a lift project, but the front hadn't been started yet. Lots of fabrication parts, brackets, new leaf springs, shackles, shock mounts, bushings, etc. I plan to take the rear end back to stock as it's been fitted with much larger springs. I'll take some pics and post as quick as I can, but really need to figure out what to do with all this stuff.
