I’ve never heard of coilovers locking up the front axle. But you should be fine going between 2-3 inches. Tons of people are running coilovers in that range
 
You will not lock up the front axle. 2~ of height is generally safe for the cv angle. I would be cautious near 3" as the cv boot ribs would start to touch and possibly rub a hole into the boot.
 
None of the high end (king, fox, icon, etc.) coilovers are designed or should really ever go about 2.5" of front lift. If you need more lift in the front then look at a different spring rather than adding a crap ton of pre-load
