Yet another ride ht question

The Scotts IFS that I bought a couple years ago is installed/tacked in place. I remember Scotts telling me that their kit will leave front end about 2” lower than stock. I am now wanting to install the rear 4 link, but I do not know what the top of my frame rails (at rear end) elevation needs to be. I have it blocked up to 25” at the moment, but I am not convinced that is correct. I can’t start from the front and go back 2 degrees to the rear because I do not have an engine/trans yet or enough weight up front to simulate ride ht. My rear tires will be 1” taller than the front. Can anyone help figure out what rear frame rails ht needs to be? I want the truck lowered, not slammed.

Edit - I think I found my answer. Set the running boards where I want and go from there.
