890 seems about the best choice for 2.5-3" lift when not carrying lots of weight. Amongst the other 2.5-3" options they seem less likely to fall out.

I bought Tundra TRD coils for the front.

2.5-3.0" lift sounds about right when I had my 890s. I try to use center hub to fender measurements so that it's easier to establish a baseline for lift. With 890s I was consistently at 22.5-22.75" center hub to fender with a couple hundred pounds of cargo gear. With my Toytec superflex (the ones advertised for 3.75" lift) I sit 23-23.25" with the same amount of cargo weight. They handled similarly & was happy with both. I don't think the coil falling out should be an issue if a proper length shock is used.
For my next front set up I'm considering the Tundra TRD/Tundra bilsteins or Tundra 6112.
