Default Lift?

I am going to do a T/S lift on my Rango. I am debating on weather I should do Shackels, or Axle blocks. I really would like 1.5" to 2" in the front (np) but I want the back just a fuzz higher. That is why I am thinking about 3" blocks. Any thoughts?

I would prefer shackles if you were doing an even lift but if you are wanting to lift the rear taller, I would recommend blocks. If you were to get 3" blocks for the back I would recommend cranking the t/s 2".

I am going to have to agree with widow on this. I have seen blocks crack before and would avoid them.

Should I put new longer shocks in as well?

Yes once you perform the lift you will pretty much need to get longer shocks. Otherwise you wouldn't get the ride at all you'd be wanting. As far as shocks here we recommend Bilstein HD or my what I use on my personal D, Monroe Reflex.
