appropriate shocks for lift height??

I have a limited 2000 4runner and have been looking to put OME 3" coils on front and back and replace my rear shocks with I think D558 blistein 3" Lift height shocks. However I don't have $899 to do that with parts from toy tech. so looking into putting Land cruiser 80 series 4WD front 8 wrap coils that will give me a 4.5" lift in back. I want to know #1 where can I find front equally soft front coils at 4.5" or equally soft coils at 2" i can compensate difference with spacers, I don't want a rake. I want soft coils like the land cruisers so stiffness doesn't compromise my off road ability. #2 where can i find shocks to work properly with 4.5" lift height?? can I just use the blistein 3" and expect less response?

I hear stock LC shocks work perfect. like ask for 96 land cruiser shocks and they are 35$ each I think. when I get mine replaced i'm using those.
My front lift is trd tundra springs and a 1.5" spacer. Pretty stiff, but that's what you get when it comes to a lift. Hard to find really soft springs for a lift. I heard Old man emu has a nice one, but not for 4.5". Add a spacer maybe? What tires are you trying to fit? Maybe get a 1" BL?
