Yes you can use the shocks that you have. I am very happy with my teraflex lift.

Get the TeraFlex 4dr 2.5 coils. That'll do the trick on 2dr

Check out the EVO MFG 3" Plush ride coils. IMO its the softest riding coil on the market. You just need to pair it with a decent shock

I would suggest a TeraFlex 2.5" for 33's, you can fit 35's with it. Which shocks are you using now? If you have stock shocks, we have a kit that will allow you to reuse them.
