Leveled out

Alright so preety soon i believe i am going to be ordering my parts for my leveling kit (2wd). One thing first Daystars should be good, i am adactly 1.5 inches lower in the front. I need/want new shocks for two reasons one i need them badly two i want it to extend some so i dont break my shock. What shocks should i get? Do i need a lift shock or just higher quality. Also are front shocks the same as rear? Imagine how bad my rake was when i bought the truck basically new with 1 5/8th inch rear blocks.

Front and rear shocks are not the same, you should be good with OEM style replacements, you will find that many of the options out there are good from 0 - 2" of lift. Many people really enjoy Bilsteins, but there are plenty of good options out there. Check out shockwarehouse.

Would lift springs or coil spacers ride better. I am not worried about spending an extra 60$ if it rides any better.

Most lift coils will be stiffer.
