You can NOT use SN95 shocks, as they are longer (some SN95 guys run Fox struts for that reason).
You should be ok with Fox struts/shocks.

2" is a LOT on a street vehicle. You'll also need to make sure you dont upset the bumpsteer characteristics... there is more to it, than just slapping in a set of low springs.

Do a search on KYB... (IMOHO KYB are $#@&). Go with Bilstein, or Tokiko.
