Re: lift
Blocks on front are not safe. blocks on rear ok. You will need new steering arm and brake lines for front. Get new lift springs for front-- your old ones probably are shot by now. The ends of the front springs should not be lower than the top of your front axle.

Re: lift
Just buy a kit from someone like superlift, skyjacker, rough country, etc. They are cheap for your type of suspension and all the components are tested to work together.
