no you wont need to remove them with 2" and 2.5" spindles because your spindles are doing half the drop for you, but then 2" is only dropped with your coil springs so you still should have alot of travel for suspension.

the reason we are speaking of removing or shortening your bump stops is the fact you was asking about driving when your truck is sitting on the bump stops and its not a good thing to drive while bottomed out, so best bet to drive that low is to remove the stops or shorten them.
