Default Switching to bilstein

I have a teraflex 2.5 inch lift with shock adapters. I am going to order bilstein shocks. First, is there anything I will have to add to the lift? Also will my driveshafts have any more chance of damage? I am a big noob with the jeep so any help would be great!

if you're only changing the shocks you shouldn't have any new issues

You shouldn't need anything.

Just might want to try to get shocks that will work for 2.5" or 3.5".

My RK 2.5" lift is upgradeable. I could swap out the 2.5" springs for 3.5". Many shops will put shocks in that will work with 2.5" or 3.5" springs. However, mine didn't. So now if I want to add the 3.5" springs, I would need new shocks. This puts it out of my budget, so will have to wait until my shocks wear out. Keep it in mind if you have 33's and want 35's or 37's later...
