Welcome to the forum.

To answer your question, yes you will get about 3" with that.

Up front you will want:
OME 927 springs
OME, Bilstein, or ironman front shocks
1/4" top spacer plates
Bumpstops
Al's a-arms(this will be needed at 3+")
If you want a little more height up front you can add a 3/8" Clevis lift

In the rear you will want:
OME 731 rear springs
2 extra rear spring isolators (put them on top)(if you do the 3/8" Clevis get 4 rear isos)
OME, bilstein, or ironman rear shocks
Bumpstops(we use hockey pucks)

I'm sorry I can't help much with the rear shocks. I don't know the lengths well enough. Tom might be better help.

Without the Clevis you'll be right around 3", possibly a little under. With the Clevis lift you'll be up at 3.5"

Ok thanks.

The problem for me is I can't get other set up different a old man emu or tjm. Because I can't buy others brand in my country.

For this reason I need to set up the jeep with ome.

No more 3 inch lift.

Thanks

If you're keeping it at 3" then just 927s, your choice of front shocks, and a 1/4" spacer up front. JBA a-arms will help too. The rear 731s, your choice of shocks, and 1 extra isolator per side should keep you level. Don't forget bumpstops as well.
