Shocks size

I've decided to add a Canuck Motorsports 3" coil spring, uca/ball joint, and 2" rear block kit to my 2" coil spacer giving me a 5/2 lift. I was looking into Fox shocks. The problem is the ones for 97-03 4x2 front works for only 1-3" lift. Will they still work? If not, whats a brand and length that will work or does Fox make longer ones. Thanks

I wouldn't do that with a 2" spacer already in there. 3" coils with the upper arm will put you at a little but worse than stock angles, so I wouldn't try to get more than a 1.5" spacer in there at the most with the coils, even then your angles wouldn't be too great.

Fox does make longer ones, but you may need to order them through Fox to get the proper mounting on both ends.

Well I say it's a 2"spacer because of the company who made it but it only gave me like an 1.5" of lift. It's not a full 2". when measured its 1.5" but .5" is cut out of it for it to fit on the spring. So really it's an 1" haha but thanks for answering about the shocks.
