BJ Spacer\Coil Spacer with same shocks?

Quick question! I have Rancho 9000ES Shocks on my 2nd gen 4runner, and was wondering if I did the BJ spacer and Coil spacer lift could I still keep my same shocks, or do I need longer ones?

You'll probably need new shocks. When I put Downey HD coils on my '92 4Runner, the stock shocks ended up being almost fully extended at ride height.

And just as a preemptive answer, the Rancho's you have are probably the same length as your stock shocks, but it might be worth checking out to make sure.

If you just did the BJ spacers you need to shim them a bit, do both and oyu need longer shocks..
