It does appear to have a lift-kit based on the gap between the tires and the fenders probably 4 inches. You can tell if there are blocks under the leaf springs between the axle and the spring. Also those tires are bigger than factory and would raise the truck a bit as well.

That's just based on the pictures I can see but this truck could have come with a higher stock height.

Doesn't stock 4x4 have blocks on the back axle? Otherwise the rear end would be squatting. Lift kits just change the height of the blocks.

Yes, but usually they add blocks so there would be more than one block per spring. You can also tell if the front leaf springs are a Ford part or not look for the emblem or labeling.

Thank you all

I looked and there are blocks with the leaf springs and they are Ford parts so it’s probably just a tall truck. Thanks to everyone that replied I appreciate you all
