Replacing front and rear shocks

Looking to replace the front and rear shocks on my 2001 4x4, thing is, I've removed the lift block and put 2" drop shackles on the rear and I dont know what size shocks I should get. Should I just get 2wd shocks for the rear? Up front I've uncranked the torsion bars and thats all, should i just stick to regular 4x4 shocks or what?
Thanks for your input in advanced

yea i would go L shocks for the rear since they are setup for 2" factory drop, and you basically have 2" drop from 2wd height.

I have a set of rears off of Fiddy if you can't find a set
