Will I need to buy different shocks if I install a Reverse Shackle Kit? Also, if I need to put blocks in the rear for leveling the truck after the install, where do you get those?

If I go with Bilstein's on the front with the Reverse Shackle Kit, does anyone know which ones will fit? Also, which Bilstein's are you guys using in the rear?
A stock shock should work just fine for a 2.5" lift. When I built my reverse shackle at the full bottom travel the shocks were just bottoming out but I built mine for a 4" lift. I got the rear blocks from Summit but make sure you don't get the wedge shaped ones like I did. It is WAY to much of an angle and it messes the geometry up. I did 4" in front and 3" in back and it sit's about perfect.
