shackles

I have an 85 pickup 22r 4x4 and my tires rub. I decided to make new shackles. I want to raise my truck an inch and was wondering how much longer I should make the front and rear shackles to give it that inch lift. Thanks

Shackles lift you half the additional length, so if you want 1" lift, increase your shackle length 2".
