From what topguncustomz told me that you can replace your 2" block with a 3" block and still use your stock shocks. Because youre only going up 1" in the rear. If you are stacking your 3" block to your stock 2" block you will need new shocks. I hope that makes sense

well 1" doesn't seem worth the trouble. and my shocks are brand new so i don't want to have to get new rears.
i was planning on getting shock extenders for the front anyway, does anyone know if there is anything that will extend the rear shocks available?
