can I buy stock replacement shocks

If you've got 4 inches of lift then you'll need aftermarket shocks made for that amount of lift. You could probably get stock ones to fit on on the street, but as soon as you go offroad you'll destroy that shock.
As to what brand, I've used Rubicon Express, Rancho and Pro Comp. The RE and Rancho seemed fine, but the Pro Comp seemed to ride rough (this is 10 years ago on my CJ, so take it with a grain of salt).

you could run a stock shock, but will take some work. I run stock shocks and have about 3 inches of lift, but I moved the shock mounts from the bottom of the axle tubes to the top of the axle tubes with is about a 3.5" difference. for shocks, I run the cheapest NAPA shocks made for a stock YJ, I think I paid $8 per shock.

Hydros will run you 30 per. But will be a better ride. I have BDS but it is the same as the ranchos and pro comp
