[QUOTE="footlong70, post: 1494134, member: 8456"] As for the back you'll need shocks long enough, there is no extension Ive ever seen. The rear shocks tend to be long anyways. Aftermarket lifted shocks for the rear typically have wide ranges of 3"-7" or 4"-8" or 6-8" lift heights for examples depending on brand. I would add the lift in and buy longer shocks later based on actual measurements or just buy 8" rear lifted shocks. you don't have to be real picky on the rear axle. As long as the shock has at least 2-3" of extension past resting length and when fully extended they bottom out before your brake lines/e brake cable/wires ect. I would check to see first if you can get away with the shocks that came with the kit. It's not uncommon for lift companies to use the same rear shocks from a 4" kit as a 6 or 8" kit. What does the kit come with for rear lift? Whats your plans for adding the additional 2"? [/QUOTE]
