Default Long arm question

Hi guys, I have an 01 dodge 2500 cummins. I put a procomp 6" lift in it then added 2" coil spacers, so now have total 8" lift. I have the short arm kit so the front wheels are pulled back in the fenders, anyone know the proper measurement of the long arms so I can lengthen mine? Thanks for your time

Its probably best/easiest if you buy a long arm kit. They are not too expensive, and they will come with all the necessary brackets to mount on the frame
