Default front suspension dilemma

Has anyone attempted or owned a dakota that had airbags installed? I'm getting ready to hack mine up to get it to lay out on 20's but the control arms are worrying me. The lower control arm looks as though it will hit the frame before the frame hits the ground and it doesn't look like a good idea to do too much "notching" around that area. The wheels are 20x8's with 255/35 tires. I'm aware of the modifications needed for the upper control arms, no big deal, but the lowers look suspect, too. Would it be possible to flip the lower balljoint around so that it faces up like an S-10 lower balljoint? Do I need to see about just buying a whole set of after market control arms? The truck is a 2002 2wd ext cab with the 4.7L. Thanks for any help guys, normally I get fantastic suggestions from everybody so hopefully that happens this time, too, lol.
