Default Lift and shock?
I currently have a 2" budget boost with Skyjacker Hydros all around. I am going to change out the spacers for 2.5" coils and add 3/4" spacer up front. I believe the shocks I am using now are for 2.5" lifts. Do you think I need to change my front shocks to longer ones and if so any reccomendations on size and brand.? I would rather not have to change the rears as well. Thanks

I will be installing Skyjacker coils. I see that Teraflex has new 2.5" coils out as well. Seems like either brand would be fine.
