I have a chance to buy a set of 4 bilstein shocks part# f4 be5 2450 ho and was wondering if I can use them with the springs I plan on getting 881 front and 906 rear. I have done allot of reading on here and have decided on these springs but not sure if the shocks would work. Do I need different shocks for front and back? I am looking for a flatter ride and about 2" of lift.

Yes if that is the correct Bilstein fitment for a 4WD rear or 2WD rear you will be fine.

Yes it only makes sense to do the front springs at the same time-they are frequently"prebuilt" with a new top plate holding them together for an easy swap in.

Personally I read good things about using Old Man Emu shocks with old man Emu springs and that swayed my decision in that direction.

You are not telling us your year or model so take such advice with a grain of salt... read and search Bronco fan.

Sonoran Steel website 96-02 4Runners section is a wealth of info and they know their lifts.
