f-250 high boy?

Hey guys, I'm new to the web site. I have a question that I'm sure has been asked a million times, but here we go I own a 1976 f-250 with a 390 and 4spd now how do you know if it is a high boy or just lifted. No body lifts that I see, any help would really be helpful, Thanks

the only way i think it could be a lowboy is if they took the body off a 76 and threw it on a 77.5 to 79 f250 4x4 frame
