That spring shows its heavy duty so ya might get a little more than three inchs.

Not a bad thing if you have much weight on the rear HD rear bumper/tire carrier weight in hatch area tools recovery gear.

If you're spending money on replacement leaf packs why not get some 3" lift leaf packs that will last longer than an AAL?

Plus you'd probably need new clamps and centering pins anyway.
