I have done it, but not on a dak. but its around 5-6" I think. (what ever themeasurement of the axles and leaf spring is) its and easy swap. just cut the perch's off and weld them on the opposite side.

Ya it gives a good lift. I have done it too. Save your self some time and buy new perches. They are $7 at summitracing.com
