Default Lowering 4x4 shocks?

If you get 3 in. blocks for the back and take out the torsion bar bolts up front, do you have to buy new shocks or no?Also mine now is lifted in front by torsion bars and in back by shackles, do i have to buy new shackles or on my shackles thier 3 places to put the bolt on mine its in the middle, can i just put it in the lower bolt hole?What size drop blocks do you recomend and do you recomend taking out the torsion bolts up front?
