Adding to my lift.

Specs: 91 4.5 RC long arm kit.

Ok so very soon i will be adding shackle relocation brackets because of the crappy shackle angles with RC rear springs. Now from what i've read i should get about an extra inch added to the rear. Which means i will need to add at least 1" to the front. Poly spacer will be the way to go for that i think?
Does anyone know how much i will need to lengthen my long arms to comp. for the added 1" to keep things lined up? Is it a 1 to 1 ratio? Meaning lift an inch, move an inch forward? I guess i'm just trying to prevent taking things apart more times than i have to.
 
1 inch shouldnt bother the arms that bad but i can tell you for sure no its not a 1 to 1 ratio
 
Wait until you get the relocation brackets on. My ride height only changed about .25". Get the rear set where you want it, then worry about the front. JIM.
