Bump Stop?

I'm putting 6" of suspension lift under my truck by installing 56" rear springs with a 4" lift and stock 52" rear springs in the front. I'm using DIY's 4" rear shackle flip and front spring perch.

My question is do I simply add 6" to my bump stop or is there some sort of weird geometery (there almost always is) calculation which I am no longer capable of performing that I need to consider?

Also I was just planning on stacking 2" or 3" square stock to get the hieght I need, any other ideas?
