I'm doing shackles and coil spacers on my 94 sport. Putting new shocks in while I'm at it. Do I need longer shocks? Thanks. :confused:

You may on the front. Rancho rs9000 shocks for stock or their 2.5" lift uses the same part number for rear shocks. The fronts are different.

When I put on the Duff 2.5" lift the stock shocks were fully extended at rest on the front. The rears were fine (I did change all 4 though)..

It isn't necessary to run longer shocks front or rear.
 






Im still using stock shocks with 2 in lift.

But what would be the BEST configuration. I plan to do 2 inch shackle lift and torsion bar... My shocks are BLOWN... I need new ones anyway... So could I take advantage of the opportunity and get a little bit longer ones or does it even matter.

Rancho RS5374 replaced by RS55374.
"Use to depletion, then use RS55374"
