for the front id run kingspring kffl-13's theyre legal and cheap.
the rear depends on how you want to do it cheapest and easiest option is lowering blocks,

next option id be looking at is getting the rear springs reset to the requires height and some extra springs added to stiffen up the ride. any suspension shop such as kingsprings or even 4wd shop can do it, just take the springs into them

Why UK? Here in Aus, there's a mob called Pedders who will be able to get you what you need.. honest, no bull.
