Talking Got a F150, lets start modding, please input

Ok, I want some opions. I plan on purchasing the Bell Tech 3/4 drop for my reg cab f150. Is there anything I will need besides the kit and shocks to make things work correctly. I am also planning on some 18in wheels( anyone selling any), so I dont want the tire wearing funny. Anyone installed the kit themselves, I heard that the rivets are the worst thing about the job. I have a 4" angle grinder and probably a torch. Do the new hangers bolt in, and are they easy to locate to new position.
I have found that the 3/4 w/shocks for about 450. Is this a pretty good deal.

Did my first mod tonight, removed those big ugly body molding stripes.

I sent you an e-mail about the lowereing kit
the rear has 4 rivits per hanger and the round smashed top on the rivit can be ground off and then the plug can be nocked out with a punch. I have 17's and the tires wore evenly and fine with no rubing and tracked straight.
