ok, lift question guys. This is for the '95. Since I'm doing away with leafs all together on my '99 I now have relocation brackets for my '95 I am doing a 5.5" LA lift on this one now. What's the best way to achieve the 5.5" in the rear?

Relocation brackets add about 5/8 of an inch correct?

How would 3.5" leaf the brackets and adjustable shackles? Or would a 4.5" leaf work better with less shackle?

Here's the shackles I'm looking at (the adjustable)
