It is stock length as far as I can tell from the pic. An extended shackle would look much longer.

Looks really close to stock. Measure from flare to center cap.

Have any other lift componants?

Pics would help. How is the rear sitting compared to the front. Measure the front from bottom of flare to center cap.

Stock is 17.5" front 17" rear.

Well that means you have .5" of lift in the rear which is probably due to bad packs.
