Stock shocks are good up to 2" of lift. BBs are usually 1.5-2, so you should be good to go.

^ditto

it's not until you get into the 3" lift sizes you need to worry about shocks, and most of the time the kits will have shocks that come with it.

Yeah I tried running stock shocks on a 3 inch lift and the ride isnt so nice haha especially when you hit bumps and the shock bottoms out. Running no shocks in the rear is fun too when you pump the brakes and you can get the rear end off the ground.
