So the only reason I got away with running a 10'' shock on the stock mounts is because I had so much lift. like 4-5''. I don't really recommend that unless it's intentional like it was for me.
If you really want to run a true 10'' shock then yes you'll have to do some relocation.
Otherwise about the longest shock you can run in the stock mounts is about 9" give or take 1/2''. You should be able to get some 5125s around that size easily. So I'd see if you can return the 10'' ones and get some 8.5'' or 9'' ones.
Yeah if you want the travel then you need different leaf springs, but its not really the best way to do it. The right way would be to do a real shock relocation with some short body 10'' shocks. That'll give you the best performance all around.
