Stock shock work fine with this lift kit, but aftermarket shocks are superior to the crappie stockers.

It should come with shock extenders. If u don't get the shocks. I have the 2.5 rough country with 2.2 shocks and like it, it's a rough ride though. Had one shock leak. Gave RC a call they shipped another that day

I bought a Rubicon Express 2" Budget Boost with shock extenders (recommended to get full articulation of stock shock without damage). On another note... According to the dealer, the stock Rubicon shocks are high performance and cost $105 per so I would not replace them if you are on a budget like me.

TeraFlex has a kit with new shocks, one with shock extensions, one with no shocks/adapters so if you wanted to run another brand you could.
