I bought my truck with a lift on it. It has 33" tsl's on it and towers over them with a 2" body lift. My question is, is how can I tell what type of lift it is and how big of a lift it is? Can I measure the drop brackets for my ttb arms on the front and get the amount of lift?
 
:worthless:
wish i could help,although if you post up some pics a few might be able to see what lift you have.
 
If you just post a pic of the front end, us veteran TRS guys can probably tell what type/how much lift there is. :D
 
What type/angle of pic do you need? It has drop brackets for the rear radius arm mount and drop brackets for the ttb if it helps any
 
pictures aren't really for more than brand identification,especially if its a mismatched kit. stock coils are about 10.5" tall compressed on rbv's so if you have 16.5"ers then its a 6" lift.:cool:

is it painted red?blue?black?

i bought a 3" lift and my coils measure 13.5"
 
Well my springs are red. That help any? I have a pic on my comp of the truck with a side view when I first got it.

That doesn't help much, we need pics from under the truck like these:

Well, about all I can tell you from those is that it is not a recent Skyjacker kit (although could be an older one), and that it is probably at least 5.5" lift, judging by the length of the blurry outline that is the pivot drop bracket.
Also, you need a longer pitman arm.

FWIW, a stock pivot bracket (bracket for the driverside beam) should measure right about 6½" from the frame to the axle mounting hole. Hope that helps.
