May 6, 2014 at 2:07 comment added Andy Putman @Kevin : The longer a paper is, the harder it is to publish in a decent journal. I think that a good strategy when trying to figure out how to split up results into papers is to try to maximize the $L^{\infty}$ norm of the journals that they will end up in (notice that this is very different from maximizing the number of papers!).
May 5, 2014 at 20:28 comment added darij grinberg I am currently in a similar situation (except worse... 2x60 pages) and have been explicitly advised by several people to not combine them (actually the two papers used to be one and I have been advised to split it in two).
May 5, 2014 at 20:15 comment added Kevin I'm not experienced with publishing papers, but is there a good reason you shouldn't combine them into one paper?

May 5, 2014 at 18:07 comment added Andy Putman This is not a big deal. As long as both preprints are publicly available (preferably on the arXiv), it is totally normal to have logical dependencies between them. Just submit them in the normal fashion. If I were the referee of the second one, I would probably take a look at the first and make sure I believed it before I recommended accepting the second one, but I wouldn't bat an eye about it. Sometimes you can't even control things, e.g. if you have a paper that depends on a theorem of someone else and it takes a long time for them to publish it.

May 5, 2014 at 16:54 comment added darij grinberg "Should I put them up on arxiv" yes, independently of the context. Anyway, academia.stackexchange.com is probably better suited for such questions.
