The shackle is only in 1 end of the spring, so the lift in the middle (where the axle is) is only half of this, this also assumes the shackle would be verticle. The more the shackle lays down or is angled the less lift you get as well.
Typically with extended shackles on our utes you will end up with about 30-35mm of lift as a result.
Hope this helps.

I've got longer ones coming but will it actually make it higher?

Depends, if your shocks are limiting your leaves from "stretching" out then yes getting longer shocks will allow your truck to sit higher. Take your shocks off and have a look

It's never covered in kits when you buy them. I'm going to contact vmn. In the next week or so to start ball rolling. Just bought xrox and have a winch. Can't afford rekon yet.

Im such a tosser. You think i would have considered that a body lift will affect my bl..dy xrox position. Ive been waiting for 6 weeks for the bar i hadnt considered the body lift then.
Not happy jan.
I ordered rekon instead. Feel better now.
I will have to put lift on hold. Might still prep up in that direction machining blocks etc. Its bound to happen at some stage.
Will harass you soon.
