Hey I am looking at a 2 inch budget lift and I was wondering if I had to get the shocks too or if stock shocks will work?

IF you are installing any lift, you should always get shocks. The ones you have are either worn or too short.
You also MUST do a post lift alignment. Plan to have to repair the Suspension bushings, or replacing the control arms and trackbar, also the Tie rod ends.
Ther is relly no such thing as a Budget lift, Lifting on the cheap,always costs more in the long run.
