Question add a leaf length?

Im looking to buy a full add a leaf 3" lift from zone, iron rock or maybe rough country and i want to know if they are actually long leafs. like extend from one end to the other on the leaf pack.

I want to be sure i buy a full length add a leaf because mine needs to be replaced. I bought a "long" add a leaf from fat bobs and its not full length im very disapointed with it. if i have a load on the rear of my jeep the spring will bend where the add a leaf stops...no bueno lol

Don't buy another aal. Buy a leaf pack that is meant for your lift and youll be much happier

A extra $150 will get you RE 3.5 leaf packs shipped to you from Amazon.

leafs will def last you a lot longer, if its not in your budget you could always look up some threads on s10 bastard packs or anything similar, but the aal will just settle again
