Default Coil spacers effect.

HI I have a 1999 jeep cherokee with a 3 inch lift, sway bar disconnects, and a temporary t case drop. I’m planning on adding 2inch coil spacers in the front. Im wondering if that’ll effect anything. Like steering or something? I’m planning on getting More suspension upgrades. But I wanna know if I need that before I put the coil spacers in

thats going from a 3" lift to a 5 " lift, of course it will effect many things, like track bar will need to be longer, drag link will be need to be adjusted, brake lines may need to be longer. thats for starters.
