So someone told me the best way to see if your truck has a lift, is to measure from the center of your tire to the bottom of the fender, and compare it with another truck of similar year/style.

Anyone else have a 2005 4x4 Limited? This is noticably taller than my 2002, and I'm curious...

I have one, 38 inches up front on both sides, 38.5 inches in the rear.

Although my springs may be worn.

Right now it's a seed planted at the back of the nuclear reactor I call a brain. I'm hesitant to do the V/B Spring code mod because I still want my truck to fit in the garage and I'm not sure it will after the Spring mod.

Decisions, decisions.....

My 02' squeezed in, since you have a flat driveway (straight approach) like me you should be fine.
