I've fitted Old Man Emu shocks to my Gen4. These are designed to go with their 40mm lift springs, but I had planned to keep the stock springs as I like the ride height as it is.
No problems with installation or function, however the shocks allow about 70mm of additional droop. I'm fitting extended brake lines, so not concerned about those, but at full articulation there's enough room for the stock springs to become loose.
Are there spring clamps/location cones available that would work with the Gen4?

It sounds like you will have the additional extension issue solved. Have you thought about the possible need for extending your bumpstops? If the extended length of the new shock is longer, the compressed length should be longer too.
Just a thought
I started out with nothing & still have most of it left
