1.5"....Which springs to get?? Which shocks??

OK so I know this same thread has been made a million times but I have a slightly different question that I havent been able to find the answer to.

1. Which coils do you prefer for a rear end 1.5" lift (92 runner). Im thinking pro comp or downey, possibly OME but if any one knows of others possibly for a cheaper price im all ears. Also places to order from??

2. Do I need new shocks if I get new longer springs? Or can the shocks I have now handle being extended an extra inch or 2. Im looking to do this ASAP so any help at all would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

Also if anyone knows of any pictures of the result of a 1.5" rear end lift could you maybe give me a link??? Thanks again!

OME springs and shocks together. I did Procomps, but had them off in two months and then did OME. Do not mix OME spring with other brands of shocks. THe ride sucks BAD when you do. Trust me. DO it once, right.

I have all pro rear lift coils with doetsch tech mv-12 shocks. great combo. Pretty soft, but a that makes for a great ride on and off road. I have bilstein shocks in the front.
