Default Tall ball joints+drop spindles=problem?

I put the 2" drop spindles on my car to lower the front end. After reading about the advantages of the tall ball joints I decided to also install those while I was doing the front end. But now I think I might have issues. The first is if there will be enough adjustment with the stock control arms. The tires are toed way in. The 2nd is that I had to crank the tie rod ends all the way in just to get them installed and I think they still need to go in more. I think I might pull them back off and cut an inch off the end of each one to make sure there is enough adjustment when I get it aligned. But if I need to replace the control arms (upper, lower or both?) I would like to do it all at once. Any opinions? I can get a picture if it helps.
