taller leaf spring hanger ?

I installed a flip kit on a 1979 GMC Jimmy. I would like to raise it up about an 1 inch or so and I was told that I could use a four wheel drive hangers. Actually walked into LMC truck and looked and compared hangers. They are the same. Does anybody know where I can find some off a different model or a different year that would work?

I'm the one that told you they were different lengths.
Look here:

Does your rear hanger look like the one on the right or left?

This is a stock 2wd blazer frame from this thread:

It has the shorter 2wd hanger bracket riveted to the frame.
(disregard the longer aftermarket shackle)
