Default Bilsten 5100's with 1.5 leveling kit

My 2011 JKU has a teraflex 1.5 leveling kit. Going to put a 2.5 rock krawler lift on in the future. I want to upgrade my shocks now to Bilsten 5100's. Will they still fit when I go to the 2.5 lift? Thinking yes. I've seen the ones I'm talking abot say 1-3in lift. But some sites say 2-3in lift.

I have a rk 2.5" lift and you want longer shocks than you will with the leveling kit. If you get shocks that work well with the leveling kit you are going to give up some performance off road when you get your RK kit.
