the best way to go is with the extended radius arms I don't believe they make the drop brackets anymore only the extended radius arms

Depends. Have you done any steering corrections? If you have (or will) put on a drop pitman arm you will want to use a track rod drop bracket. If the track bar and the drag link aren't parallel w/ each other it'll cause bump steer. You will also need to drop the radius arm brackets down 2 1/2" (NOT 4") to keep it in alignment.
