    Trying to order a couple AALs for my truck and my brothers. I called up 4wheelparts and they have both the 13120 for $50 but they said they usually get the 57096 from the 6"procomp lift and use it without the block to gain the 1.5-2" lift. Its double the price $100 and I would have to cut it down though because its the same length as the 3rd TSB leaf apparently, so Im wondering what leaf is better? Does anyone have the 13120 leaf? Not sure I want to fork out money for nothing

    I'm sure by now you've probably found your answer, but I like preventing problems in the future and since I just ran into this problem myself and this was the only thread I could find on the subject I figured I would post my solution.

    After having to call Pro Comp three times before I got someone who was really willing to work with me on my specific issue and not give me a generic answer and then hang up, I was informed that because I am using the updated TSB Springs I have to use the shorter add a leaf which is the 13120, the 57096B is for the non TSB two leaf stock Springs. The TSB packs with three leafs need the shorter add a leaf.

    The good news is the shorter Leaf is much cheaper.

    Yes this is what happened, but i got the longer one and cut it down (pain in the ass) and resprayed it and it worked great. But then I sold the truck and regret it every day

    Does plastidip count? Lol 5100’s OME 2887’s 285/75/16 Milestar Patagonia MT’s center console divider, and lots of plans...
    Pro Comp add a leaf 57096B-5
    I’m just running into the same problem...the generic add a leaf 57096B ends right ontop of the spring retainer for the factory leafs! I didn’t buy something to spend hours modifying it to work, and why doesn’t 4wp put a note in their computer about this!? No videos on YouTube about this either.. I don’t know anything about the TSB.. time to do homework... either way if you run into this problem don’t remove the factory spring retainers, (the factory ones are welded in place, and the part rubbing the springs is coated in rubber). the metal ones provided in the kit will squeak aren’t as strong, may slide down the leaf.

    Use get the shorter add a leafs 13120 and save yourself the head ache!
