Doing a 2 inch lift on a 410 is it worth extending bump stops?

what type of 2" lift? springs? add a leaf? shackles?

The usual idea is to lower your bumpstops to the stop your springs arching the wrong way during bump travel so if the lift leads to your springs doing that it would be a good idea to lower them.
