I am looking to put keys and spacers into my Tahoe but hear that my shocks will likely top out if I go up 2". I recently put on a pair of KYB Monomax and don't want to swap them out for something else already. I have heard people talking about using shock extenders and was wondering if I would need them and if so, where to find them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The shock extenders I have only seen for lowering the truck, not for lifting.
People usually get the Billsteins 5100's which I believe are the 2" above stock you need.
I could be wrong about the extenders though maybe they flip them?

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure you will need shock extenders. The RC leveling kit comes with rancho shocks, but like swtz said, most people pay a little more for the bilsteins. I've heard the shocks that come with the RC kit are good enough. maybe check out this thread as one of the members made their own shock extenders
