Question: If I install 2" lift shackles in the rear, and also new torsion bar keys in the front, will the stock shocks still work or do I need to go with new/longer shocks.

 

I added 3" of lift in the rear of my blazer and it rode a bit harsh in the back. I got full size silverado shocks for the rear and it made it much better. Did a 2" t-bar twist too, didn't really need new shocks up front.

 

I have some ebay 2" shackles on the way and then a " 3" leveling kit with new torsion bar keys" as well. I plan to change out the shocks relatively soon. Its a 2000 and I'm pretty sure they are the originals.

 

Have fun changing those torsion keys, hope you have a torch. Depending on how much lift you do to the rear you might want to get some extended ones.
