cutting and rewelding the upper control arm... sounds like it messes up the natural camber swing pretty bad... and a ball joint spacer to space it farther away from the control arm? whoa. sounds sketchy to me.
a drop spindle would leave your suspension exaclty where it is now, ball joints included, but will move your spindle height up. if you went with a 2" drop spindle, then your truck completely layed out would effectively be 2" lower in the front than it is now.
it's certainly not good for a balljoint to be flexed out, but your wheel isn't going to fall off or anything as a result. *knock on wood*
