need= no
want= yes
with my 3" leveling kit my shocks were fully extended and I had no upward travel, so bumps were very harsh. I used shock extenders and it fixed that problem, or you could buy new shocks
either 2500 HD shocks or daystar makes some too, Id go with the Bilstein monotube! That's what Im going with when I add a coil spacer to my lift

where did you get the shock extenders and what size did you get? and you used 3 inch coil spacers so 2.5 should be ok right? not for buying new shocks on a truck that doesn't even have 8000 miles yet I already got the bully dog programmer and I'm doing a muffler swap next week just trying to get my truck where I want it before spring time.

I got mine from performex when I bought my coil spacers. Contact them, mine were only $20 shipped.
I actually just took them off my truck when I put my new spindles on. I would send you those, but they are kinda rusted and nasty.
