Does my truck sit lower then stock?
Since I got my truck on the road I feel like it sits too low for a one ton, 4x4, crew cab, long box. Am I right?

What year is it? Measure from wheel hub center to top of fender and compare with others.

Doesn't look low to me. Might just be an optical illusion because its so long. A tape measure wouldn't lie though.

Looks like mine. Long Beds look lower for some reason. Super Dutys are lower than other brands and fit 5th wheels better.

Center cap to bottom of the fender is 23.5". There is no block between the rear axle and leafs. Is that normal?

Someone leveled the truck by removing the lift block in the rear. I did the same thing, I think it looks stellar.

Take a picture of the rear suspension showing the springs. You can always add the blocks if you want to. Below is a link for part numbers of F350 blocks, keep in mind they are different based on wheel base.
