3" lift question

Hello I have a 3" skyjacker lift and I was wondering if I could Add 6.5" coils while using the same control arms?
Thanks

With a 3" lift you could get away with stock lca but anything above 3" you'll want new lca. $150 gets you adj lca. Or $100 for a set don't remember how high you can go with those.
