I may be over thinking it but I wana know before I start drilling holes. Are we talkin one inch forward dead center on the old holes to dead center on all the new holes, or are we talking front edge of old hole to rear edge of new hole. Thanks for the help.
Generally speaking, when somebody says move a hole one inch forward it's generally referred to as hole "center".

I feel 1" is typically perfect .... but a suspension mock-up for you may be worth doing. Get everything together and cycle the suspension and see if that's where you're going to want to be.
