    Body lift? The springs looks like stock SUA.

      If you can't make it better why waste your time. No use repeating the orignal mistakes. I'm to old to push it that's why.

        You mean "factory"?

          Judging by the colors I would say it is an 'alien' lift.

          Some full body side shots would help. Let us know what tires are on it too (as a frame of reference)

            Body lift pick??

            Attached is a pic of bushings. Could this account for the "lift"

              Factory rims and tires.....235/70/15

              I've measured using the only factory measurement I could find which was 66 3/4 to the top of luggage rack. Ole Pearl seems to be at 69". I assume a 2 inch lift?

              I'll get some more pics when back from shop. Having her compounded, few dings removed, doors shimmed, etc.

                    Springs, body mounts, shocks and sway bar links all look bone stock to me.....

                        It's stock. Look at the distance between the axle shaft and the bump stop. Body mounts are stock as well.

                        I love how arguements end as soon as Ristow comments. Ristow is right...again.

                          Not stock. Count the number of leafs in the front spring pack. Grand Wag's came with 7, this truck looks like it has 8? Maybe 9?

                          I'd put money that somebody in the past put an add a leaf on it.

                          Either that, or its a 2" like serehill said.

                            I agree

                            An overall picture would help but from the position of the sway bar & axle I don't think it's stock. Maybe the pic isn't a good one to make an assessment.

                              Now you can feel my frustration!!! She has "lift" but I can't figure out how. I should get Pearl back this week. I will take several more pics and post them under the same thread. The reason I am asking is that I really want her back to "stock" level but can't figure out what to "undo".

                              Thanks so much for the help Board!

                              That's her!! I know that's not a good side pic. Will post more!!
