My question, does the stock replacement add any lift, or is it a different part number?

yes. I got about 3/4" from the stock replacements with my 2" RC. Part number 58646
do they make a front shock to go with the rear? like what sthe monroe shock to go with the rear? i suppose you could run the load leveler in the rear and a jba/rustys strut spacer in the front

They don't make a shock that raises the front. The rear are designed to help when loaded/towing by using an integrated coil spring. This also helps with sagging issues (why I installed them).
Here's the thread: http://www.theultimatejeep.com/showt...Shocks-on-Rear
I did this a month ago...the rear shock.well worth it especially if you tow
anything.
Thanks for the info, another question is there any adjustment in the coil overs on the shocks? Im worried it will be too high in the rear and my extra 1/2" spacer in the front wont make up for it.....
Edit: right now im sitting @ 34.75" in front and 35.25" rear with just the daystar lift.

No, they're not adjustable. Look at the pics in the link I posted. The stock replacements don't jack the back up that high...
Just got them installed, I now have a clunk sound from the right rear, it makes noise when the spring/shock is unloaded, just wondering if what direction everyone put the "slot" in the top mount at? doubt it has anything to do with it but.... BTW i got about 1/2-3/4" front this.

Which ones did you put on? The stock replacements or the longer version?
