Yes you should be able to use your lift springs. I'm not sure on the drop brackets for the radius arms though, but I'd assume you could manage to get those to work.

With 35" tires, no matter what you have for a motor you should be running at least 4.11 gears. If you have a 5.0 you might want to go with 4.56 gears to keep torque up.
