I have cranked the t bars about 1-1.5" and 2" add-a-leafs in the rear on my 01 4wd. Will my stock shocks be too short and limit my suspension travel ? If I should upgrade to a longer shock does anyone have any suggestions on amoderatly priced aftermarket long travel shock?

Yes you will be limited by the shocks. My factory billsteins were robbing me of quite a bit of travel. What i switched to is superlift superridesall around. They are dual valve and ride really nice on road and arent too bad once on the trail. The ones i got are 85040 for the front, 85120 for the rear.According to the summit racing site they offer about 1-2 inches more travel but compared to the stockers its more than that.
As for other shocks that work well, rancho's are a favorite among many. They ride a little more firm but the stiffness is good for offroading. Plus all blazerforum members get a discount through shockwarehouse.com of 5% if i remember right and they carry alot of rancho products.
