Adding to a 3.5" spindle??

I have a spring tech 3.5" spindle on a 01 2wd now. with a 3" bl
I can get new UCAs and 3" taller coils for my truck, but with that eat up my ball joints? or anything like that?
And also would i need new, longer shocks? or would the stock ones work?

Thanks.

As long as you get new upper control arms you should be fine with 3" lift coils, I recommend the springtech coils and control arms, thats what I have and I ha picture of my balljoint angles in my gallery on here. And yes you will need new shocks.
