Default Adding 4dr springs to my 2dr........

I have an '08 2dr X (6 spd) which is my daily driver. I have already bought a set of 4dr springs which I understand will give me about 1 inch lift. Does anyone know if I will have any issues with using my stock shocks. Would it make a difference if I were to add 3/4" Daystar spacers up front to level out the rake?

I added 4dr Rubi springs with a 2.5 BB from Rough Country (2.5 up front and 2 in the rear) with my Winch and Bumper I still have stock rake, but prefer it that way as it really helps a lot with mileage. (I ran for a while with stock bumper and my mileage shit the bed.)

Did you keep the OEM shocks or did you use soemthing else? How are Rubi shocks different from X shocks?
