I moved mine back an inch but mine are under the chassis rails, i cut the old front hangers out and made new larger ones with multiple holes, i also dropped the rearend at the same time, then reset the pinion angle.
I'm not sure what the offset front hangers look like but i would think you may have to fabricate something but what do i know. lol

How?? I realize you probably just are spacing the front hanger back, right? But my offset hangers only have studs that are about an inch long; therefore if you want to move the rear back an inch...how does that work?? 
Yea, I'm probably missing something obvious, DUH...but don't flame; stupid questions are allowed here!
Knock out the old studs and put in longer grade 8 bolts...
I really wouldnt go past a 1 1/4 or so....... BUT
you will need to move the shackle if you move it much
