I'm looking at a TF (1155200)levelling kit. I did a search and did not find my answer. Do I need shock extensions with this levellng kit or are my rubi shocks ok in stock form.

No you do not. I did not run extensions with my leveling kit and I was just fine.

Not if using stock tires. Go up to 35's, longer bump stops, then use extensions

If you want to retain travel (especially in the front) run extensions. On road only rig or light trail stuff, you won't need them.
