I assume the 85 doesn't have a small body lift, right?

I hadn't thought about a body lift? I'll look closely at that when I get home.
But the initial measurement from hub to fender was 23-1/2 and now is 23-1/4?
I was thinking that maybe the 2" lift in the front was achieved by using a "helper" spring. If this is the case then maybe I need to put my original springs (120k) with the helper back in place of the parts truck springs (240k).
