Is this stock?

newbie question. I'm trying to figure out if this is stock for a 1979 f150 ranger 4x4 or if its a lift between the rear leaf springs and the axle.

Anyone know?

My factory block on my 76 f150 is about 3.25 inches tall.

Yup, looks to be! Any reason why you might think otherwise?

Yes as stock as can be...like all the other Ford trucks in the world.

2wd and 4wd F100, F150, F250, F350.....

There are couple of different styles (ones like yours and some with the ring) and then different heights, but over all, the same.

Stock!!!!

Take a look at your rear suspensions..... the "wing" pointing inboard is the compression limiter and would make contact with the rubber bump stop bolted to the frame. Dig?

Groovy.
