If you can get a good deal the cost of switching to softer springs shouldn't be a deal breaker, and depending on the spring pack you may still be able to pull a leaf out and soften things up.
On the axle, you may want to sharpen your pencil and figure out your wheel offsets, sidewall bulge, and adjust for any wall overhang you may be planning for. I thought I had this all worked out pretty well on my build (64 wide, 74-1/2 HF, 10.5 wide AT tires with 1.7 negative offset wheels) but ended up with a little more side clearance than I would have liked. This made it so that the widest readily available fenders would still have to be spaced out from the walls in order to cover the tires.
What I'm trying to say is, if you can check the details out a little better it would be nice to see that you are at least in the ballpark with no conflicts.
