Lift with coilovers

Been reading for months thru suspension threads and build threads trying to figure out how to achieve the lift I want. My goal is to get 2.75-3" of lift in the front and 2" in the back after settling.

My first choice were 888 with 5100 but found out they tend to settle at 2".

Now I am looking at Fox and Icon coilovers. But can I really reach my goal after settling taking in consideration of safe preload? I've looked thru build threads where some people achieve more lift then others with the same coilover set up.

Forgot to add this would be for a DCSB4x4.

 

Gosh, I feel your pain. Months of questions and asking on here- emailed back and forth with Marie at Headstrong Offroad and finally jumped in with Bilsteins- my overall life height is about and inch lower than yours so my task is somewhat cheaper/easier than yours
