welcome
Hey welcome!..... With a 2 inch lift your pretty safe without having to change anything else. Eventually maybe longer shocks. Just get a 4x4 allignment after and you should be good to go

Welcome from Lake Orion/Oakland County. You shouldn't need to change anything else with only adding two inches. However, if you'd like to knock it out at the same time, get a better ride quality and have some better flex, you can buy 2" extended shocks at autozone/Advanced Auto for roughly 34 dollars apiece, which is fairly cheap. They are Gabriel brand shocks, think they're called Gabriel Silver Ultra, or something of the like. Still have the rears on my 4.5" lift. They're nice.
