If you don't want to shred your axels, a full lift is needed.  I have a 3" SJR lift with 07/08 Forester struts and the axels are at more of an angle, but nothing extreme and I have had no issues so far, but it's only been lifted a month.

 

As for placement of the blocks, engine mounts, trans mounts, rear subframe, and any other place where the body attaches to the suspension.  It was at least 17 different places, if not a few more.  Literally every place the body and the suspension meet.

How much did all the actual lifting cost you. I have basically the same care and want to copy you :) hhaha

    Oh, and for the steering extenstion, I just used a steering shaft from an 96/97 outback and it worked great.  It was the perfect length, and I didn't have to weld it :-)
