Rancho Rear Shock Question

Rancho Rear Shock Question
I am about to pull the trigger on the Rancho Quick lift set up for all 4 corners to fit the new Raptor OEM take offs I just bought for my 06 FX4. I will also be adding a 1.5" block on the rear.
I have searched the forum and couldn't find the answer to my question, so sorry if I sound redundant. My question is, will the shocks that come with the Quick Lift kit work on the rear? I spoke with a rep from Rancho today and he couldn't guarantee fitment because they technically don't list a shock for a 1.5 to 2 inch rear lift. He did say the shock for the 09 and up is about 1.5 inches longer and should work. Have any of you guys done this set up and what shocks did you go with? Did you order the fronts and rear seperately? I would like to keep everything Rancho so any advice or insight you got would be appreciated.
Thanks

Stacking rear blocks? so you will have the stock 2" and then you are adding a 1.5" one?? Why not just switch out the factory for a 3" or even get a 4" one to eliminate a problem point? Just curious as to why.
But to answer your question the shocks should work fine.

Are you talking about the shocks that come with the kit or 09 and up?
Thanks
