What size lift do I have?
Could anyone guesstimate for me what size lift I might have here, if any? Is it a 2", a 4" or might it be stock? The 38" picture is from the garage floor to the top of the wheel opening on the right rear.

Re: What size lift do I have?
What size tire is that on the rear? Its been so long since I've seen stock, lol... Looks like maybe a helper spring has been added front and rear. If thats a 33 on the rear I'd say 2 if its a 35 maybe 3-4.

Re: What size lift do I have?
This thing has four different wheel/tire combos on each corner. I think the originals were stripped off long ago and these were put on just so that it could roll around. That old BFG on the left rear only says that its a 12R15LT and it measures 31" tall. The right rear tire is also a 31.

Re: What size lift do I have?
Here is a stock 3/4 ton front spring pack.
With weight on the axle it has a slight negative arch. I'm guessing you have a 2" spring pack up front.

Looks to me like you have an add-a-leaf up front and possibly stock in the rear...

Rear looks stock, front looks like someone added the bottom spring.

Re: What size lift do I have?
So, its not much of a lift at all, then. I mean, its higher than factory, but it's not any kind of a lift kit. I ask because I have to change a front spring because of this:
