Default Add a leaf, short vs long.

Alright, so I'm adding an add a leaf to my rear end because of rear end sag after the lift and stuff. Upon researching I seem to find both short and long. What would be the difference installed of the two (besides the price)? Is one going to give me a different ride hieght? Or is it for suspension stiffness?

the short is going to be alot more stiff and probably add some height and the long is going to spread the stiffness over the leaf pack, while still adding some height. It wont be as stiff but just as functional, atleast that has what i have seen in vehichles with the add a leaf.
