Default Correct shocks

Morning all. I have a question on correct shock size for my 08 Ram 1500. I have heavy duty leaf springs on my truck with a 3 in leveling block. This has her lifted a little higher than with stock springs so I was wondering if I need longer or shorter shocks? When I put the new leaf springs on I put the suggested shocks for stock, but I feel like they don't really keep the rear wheels on the ground good. What are your thoughts?

Is the block stock? Or something you added? Generally, the stock shocks will be fine with an additional three inches..
