I have my tacoma leveled out at 2.5" with bilstein 5100. If I do a 2" add a leaf for the rear will this require new shocks for the rear? I'm fairly new to all this bear with me. Thanks!

Sweet thank you for the help. I checked out the progressive ones and I'm leaning toward those more. The rear is going along with 2" toy tech coil spacers up front. So this is like a jigsaw puzzle trying everything to fit and work correctly.
