How far will axle be out with 2" lift in front?

Years ago i had a truxx 2" levelling kit installed. everything was fine eye wise but now im ordring new bilstein shocks,carli front end kit with ball joints,timken front hub bearings,spicer HD axle ujoints, sway bar end links and bushings, Mopar T steer kit. Since the carli kit comes with adjustable track bar how far should i lengthen it? 1/4" or 1/2"? Im doing an eyeball allignment myself and then am taking it to allignment shop for the rest. sad thing is young punks work in these shops and all they might do is align toe in etc.. but may not check how much my axle is offset due to the levelling kit? are there and specs guidelines to follow?

also with just a truxx 2" levelling kit are longer control arms needed? im not sure if my stock bushings are worn out but at 285,000 km im sure they are. what are good bushings to replace stockers with?
