Question Any shock recomendations for rear coil spring lift?

Planning on putting in new rear coil springs(probably 2 to 3in of lift). What shocks should I buy? Could i still run the stock shocks until I get the new ones?

Okay man this is the third thread of yours I've replied to that could have been answered by a simple SEARCH! This thread has been discussed about 9000 times. Since Yotatech has a reputation and rules about not flaming people here's some links for you.

Start here

You can use your stock shocks but trust me they are not even close worth the effort of taking them off and putting them back on. To do the coils you have to take them clear off and everything is rusted up and they are probably shot anyways. Spend another $100 and do it right.

Apparently Bilstein is popular in this forum, for the 3rd and 4th gen runners. Rancho 9000's old school, but I've heard no complaints from people. I'm thinkin of the 3" Revtek lift. I would like to know if i have to get longer coils/shocks or which model I need with the Revtek. I'm also afraid of the rear 'sagging' but should be ok with the new shocks and coils.
