Question about my lift...

[91turbogsx]

Just curious if anyone can help me out here. I bought my truck last year all stock except for some kind of lift. My belief was that it was a leveling kit but it seems so much taller than a stock truck. Plus I look at pics of other trucks with a 4" lift on them and they don't look at all taller.

Anyways I would like a few opinions on how big my lift is considering I'd like to buy new shocks and such but I don't really know what lift I have. It has like a 1 inch block in the rear on top of the factory lift block. And the front I don't know where the lift came from. Possibly shackle? Or new springs?

I got a pic of the outside of the truck so hopefully you guys can help me out. If you need more pics of the suspension let me know and I will get them. Let me know if you need more info.

Take this measurement on the passenger side of the front axle under the truck.

Measure from the axle tube (next to the spring perch) to the bottom of the frame rail (next to the bumpstop).

If you post up what that measurement is I can tell you approx. how much lift you have.

[91turbogsx]

11 5/8" from axle tube to bottom of frame rail.

That's approx a 4" lift.


If you have any pics of the front suspension I could tell you how the lift was attained.

my vote is for a 4 inch .....it looks a little taller than what a leveling kit would do....but thats just my opinion

I think it's hard to tell from that picture.

350's sit higher than 250's to start with right? To me it looked liked just a leveling kit on a 350.

Get some pics of the suspension to DCSpecial, I'm sure he will help you out.

Don't mind the rust. It's not as bad as it looks. Plus it'll be getting takin care of this winter with some of Eastwoods Rust Encapsulator. I threw in another pic of the exterior as well as suspension pics.

I am gonna guess thats a skyjacker lift.

Yeah I kinda assumed that as well. It's not really the brand I was looking for but the size.
