Skip the add a leaf in stock leafs.... find you a GOOD set of stock leafs, with NO add a leaf garbage... Get shackle relocation brackets and longer shackls. You will get a hell of a lot more flex in the rear end that way. Your front end just is not going to flex all that much on stock short control arms. And you'll never get your caster angle right without at least adjustables.

as for longer shackles... it all depends on the length. the brackets alone will net you an inch or more. But they'll get you the proper angle you need for good ride, and good flex.
