If I were to do a Daystar 2” lift or even a 2” daystar level and wanted to swap my stock shocks for factory Rubicon Fox Shocks or Falcon would I have to update all the other components of the suspension or just merely remove stock ones and bolt up the new ones.

1 for 1 swap. If the lift and level kit comes with shock spacers for the front use them. The fox oem shocks are same length as the sports.

If I did the daystar 2” lift and had the stock rubicon shocks and components will I need to use or be better off using all of the rubicon components or just swapping shocks from my stock sport shocks??

same questions with just doing a level??

Jeep uses a bunch of different spring rates depending on equipment. Compare your springs to the Rubicon ones tag numbers will tell you if they are stiffer or softer. Typically the last two numbers on tag is the rate but that's from the JK not 100 percent sure the number convenient is held over.
