Here you go 33x12.50x16.5 with a add a leaf in the front, it had tire clearance stock but I wanted to level it out a bit.

The blue is definitely not stock height and the green doesn't look to be either, maybe the Red one.

The ol silver one in the first pic is a late year 77 so its not a so called highboy. 3" wide rear springs and like I said had plenty of clearance with all stock suspension.

Lets see if I guess this right:
Red truck 1/2 ton, not the type pics he asked for, but I would own it for sure.
Your dads green one, 3/4 ton has 4" lift 35's right?
Your blue one had 1/2 ton front suspension with 8 lug outers and a swapped in 8 lug rearend, and 35's right again? Maybe a 2" body lift? Just a WAG.

This tread sounds like the guy is trying to figure out what size tires he can fit 33's or
35's/how it will look without a lift, that why I included my info up front.

BTW those are some real sharp trucks!

Yep........No need to touch a thing. Nice thing about stock Highboys. I've heard people going up to 37s with not much trouble, but I think there was a little bit of tire rub when maxing out the turning radius. I wouldn't go over 35 though.
