Do I need new wheel bearings if I install maxtrac spindles? Or can I just buy regular ranger ones and press them in?

Alright here's what you need to know . don't buy there kits . I got the 99 lift kit with spindles coils shocks and shackles . rear has no problem. the spindles hit my coilbucket and it's destroyed my front end and I am needing to replace my uca tie rod ends and ball joints from the contact . from what I'm told the rangers suspention is limited by the shock leingth and the max Trac shock is to long therefore the spindle when at full droop smashes the coil bucketI currently have Chassis Tech lift spindles on my 2003 Edge 2WD with 31x10.5x15 tires and the turning radius is hideous. The truck is very difficult to maneuver in parking lots making the turns. Thought about notching the control arms and then reinforcing the inside to increase the clearance, but I was a little scared about it.
I've heard of the many issues people have with the Edge/Trailhead trucks using lift spindles of either radius or brake caliper interference issues. Found Maxtrac 4" spindles and wondered what your thoughts are on the pair you have?
Thanks in advance for any advice you can provide.
