OK. If you save the pictures, then upload them to www.photobucket.com you can click on the IMG link which will automatically be copied. Past that into the body of your post, and it will display larger pictures.
I know it takes a little to figure the pic thing out here....someone had to 'splain it to me too!

EDIT: adding blocks on top of each other is considered unsafe... I'd look into something less dangerous (shackle flip, AALs) if you are considering driving it.
Also, on another note...
What do you have for axles? Stock or 1 tons?
Are you planning to use this truck as an off-road vehicle?
If you plan on off roading with those tires on stock 1/2 ton axles be prepared to break a few things.
And if you add more lift, you'll most likely want something bigger than those 37s because they'll look small on more than 7 inches of lift. And going more than 37 inch tires will likely destroy stock axles-especially off roading. Getting 1 tons would fix that...

If you have 5 lug wheels, you got stock axles...
It would've been more helpful to know earlier that you installed a 2in body lift...
Knowing that, I'd say you got 3" suspension lift, and 2" spacers up front, with 4" & 1" in the back, plus the 2in body lift...totaling 7" of lift w/ 37" tires...
If you wanna go bigger than what you have now, honestly... Start over, and do it right. It costs more, but things break less and its much safer. Buy a 7" suspension and throw in the body lift you have on top of that (total of 9"). The cost is $2500-$3000 from skyjacker. Piecing it together and building your own long arms gets you down to about $2000, maybe a little more.
If you're not looking to spend that kind of money, then I'd suggest keeping your truck as it is and don't offroad... those spacers and stacked blocks are no good.
edit: your truck looks real nice btw

Ok so my truck has a 5" SJ kit and 35" tires. From the ground to the to of the rear wheell-well is 44" I think you are closer to 8-9 inches of lift. 7" of suspension lift (not done right) and 2" body lift.
There are some areas on your trucks lift that need attention.
You do have spacers in the front for sure.
Is that drivers front tire kicked out or is it the pix?
Edit: We would like to see you drive and have a safe truck.
