A frame or leaf, doesnt matter. flex it up and measure the length shock you need.

A frame rear is a 3link/4link coil setup.
Not shocks inverted/angled/more inboard at top mount.

I used to run the 3000's on the front and they were perfectly suited to my RUF setup and took a pounding.

Standard rear are 283mm compressed and 544mm extended.

I always remember these lengths because they numbers just happen to be the same as the small and big chev engine cubic inches.
