shocks and relocation brackets to realign the correct suspension geometry, and an adj. PHB to center the reat end.

For the PHB and LCA brackets, which company should i go with: LG, Spohn, Umi, BMR, etc..?

That is going to be personal preferance. I went with BMR RB, and Spohn APHR. Pick and choose.

Yea, I have global west APHR, G2 LCA's, BMR relocation brackets and a Random Tech torque arm. Plus strano bars and revalved Bilsteins.

UMI has good LCA relocation brackets.

Please get a shock that is well suited for that spring. The ride will be absolutely horrible with the stock shocks. I know because i JUST swapped the G2 Super Springs out with Hotchkis Springs and threw out the old shocks and went with revalved bilstein. The difference in the ride is incredible!!

Also i don't think anyone has mentioned this. You'll want to get an alignment done after you have lowered the car.

This guy's spot on! If anything is half-*** done, half-*** results will happen. Alignment is one thing that people forget when they upgrade the suspension and the factory settings are many times not appropriate for good combination of handling and optimal tyre wear.

Wheres the best place to get an alignment done? Just your local shop?

ANY place where they know what they're doing and can perform an alignment with non-OE specs if needed. Many businesses screw this up more times than I even care to admit.

Also, on 4th Gen F-bodies it helps if they have the factory style alignment tool since that will make the adjustment much quicker and much more accurate with less frustration. You'll be amazed at how many shops don't have this tool.
