You were right on with BOTH posts Silver60th, I thought they were both good advice, A 2'' bb is a 2'' bb the thing that will most likely affect ride is the shocks like you said

i would still get a good quality BB, you can always reuse the shackles and such so you might as well get a good quality product. I've seen some other lift shackles and they dont even compare to my rocky road shackles....these things will NEVER break or bend

Just a heads up to the OP, these are pretty much the strongest, beefiest shackles I have ever run across.

Go with OME or BDS lift kits you can get full springs with them ,and not have a BANDAID lift in which you will end up replacing springs and what not within a year.

Shock bolts rounded
As I said earlier, i purchased a Zone 2" lift with new shocks, AAL, and front spacers. Well I started yesterday at 4pm and 6hours later have the two rear shocks removed!! The first one came out easy, the second ones bolts were rounded and had to cut the shock out to have easy access to get them out, only to snap them off. Now I am heading out to drill and tap. Keep you posted!

If you got an air chisel or even a hand chisel drive the broken bolt an nut that the shocks were held on by out and just drop bolts done the holes.The upper nuts are only tack welded on.
