When you go 2" +or-, the OEM length shocks are usually fine.

I ran stock length shocks when I was dropped 4" in the back. I did replace them though in under a year. The valving will be different on "dropped" shocks besides the overall length.

I currently have OEM lenght shocks up front since the I-beams don't change the distance of shock travel. I do have dropped shocks on the rear and they need replacing. I am hoping to match my fronts but with shocks that are shorter by looking at the overall dimensions and mounting styles.
