front suspension
i know i am new here, but my goal is to make my 74 F100 to lay body with a nice new air ride suspension, but i need new i-beams up front, and i have no clue of a good place to find the parts i need for fairly cheap 
, the only i-beams for lowered applications i have found thus far are about $500 for the set 
, so any comments would be greatly appreciated.

+1 to Ltsgarage. I-Beam is strong and durable. Not intended to be adjusted. Ride height changes will jack the geometry. If you go with custom beams you will have to stay at whatever drop / lift they were designed.

I know this about beams. I had JDM beams on my truck. It wasn't low enough for me. That's when I went to Jaguar Xjs independent suspension
