Default 2010 Suburban 2500 lift question

I've been rebuilding a front hit 3/4 ton suburban. Don't look too close at my paint job. Almost done but wanted it a tiny bit higher just for looks. Looking to add one inch blocks to rear axle and pull front up two inches with the torsion bars. Most kits are for a lot more lift. Finding just blocks for the rear but some confusing information with discrepancies. One set said for 2 1/2 inch axle only. Mine appears to be 3 1/2" tube. Also centering/locking pin listed as either 9/16 or 5/8 inch. Seems the 5/8 was 2019 and up or so and mine is a 2010. 8 lug of course. What size pin do I need? Also, can I get two inches out of the torsion bars? I assume I'll have to get front alignment but that's ok.
thanks in advance for any info.

Just purchased a 2013 Suburban 2500!
I would like to do the same. Have you had any luck with doing the 1 inch back and 2 inch front?

2inch on the torsion bars is the max...it might right rough at 2 inches.
