lift questions

I am thinking of geting a 73-80 chevy truck for my first vehicle. I want to put a 6in lift with 35's. I know I will need new springs, shocks, stering arm (pitman arm?), and brake lines. WIll I need to lengthen the drive shafts? I still am not sure on wiether or not I want a long bed or short bed. If I get a short bed could I take a long bed drive shaft and have it shortened to fit? And if I get a long bed could I take a crew cab drive shaft and have it shortend? And are 3/4 ton and 1/2 ton drive shafts the same?
