How does skyjacker compare to bilstein?
Ran them both, honestly, I can't tell a difference on any shock on these trucks...maybe some of those high dollar, big bodied shocks will make a difference...I don't know!

I have Skyjackers on my 2wd with a coil spacer in the front and a 4" cast iron block in the back, rides quite well.

Not what I meant...I run Bilsteins now on my 4wd, and Skyjackers on my 2wd...and can't tell much difference between them!

I honestly don't know if there is enough stroke in a stock shock to be used on a 2" lift.

I CAN tell you that at 2.5" lift, the upper control arm will hit the bump stop mount and make a lot of noise when the suspension unloads. Never go any higher than 2" lift on a 2wd
