Default Shock Question

First of I'll say sorry for all the questions I've put up so far. That being said I picked up a set of 3" coil spacers to level my truck got halfway into it and decided i needed new shocks as the old ones do not expand at all, so my question is do I need longer than stock shocks and if I do does anyone know what size?

You need shocks for a 3 inch lift.

I am rather partial to Bilstien's myself. They make a shock for lifted trucks up to 6". Direct replacement for the stock ones. JMO.
