Default Switching Lifts??

About 6 months ago i bought the skyjacker 2" spacer pucks with the four hydro skyjacker shocks...but i recently put a smittybuilt bumper on it, so it saggs a little..i woulnt mind a little more clearence because i have 35s and they are kinda tight...so i was wondering if i replaced the old coil springs with 2.5"-3" lift coil spings , would i really need any other parts? And i want to keep the same aftermarket shocks i bought with the skyjacker lift... also i am pretty much a pavment driver and some times ride trails but nuthing crazy.

My current lift:

OME HD springs. They will compensate for the heavy bumper and are an incredible ride. You could prob. order the 2" springs and not have to switch much more out. Give Dave at Northridge a call.
