Question Dodge Ram Offroad package or Aftermarket lift?

Just Picked up this 2001 dodge ram 1500 4x4 and it has some sort of lift on it but looks factory, has 3 in block in back and looks like just bigger coils up front, not too sure, wondering if anyone could help me out here

here are some pics of the suspension

Check and see what gears are in your axles, and/or, request a build sheet from chrysler for your truck. You can get one at any dealership, or, there is a link to an online form in the FAQ section.

OffRoad package came with 4.10's in the axles.

is there any identification on the truck that could clarify what is is, thinking it is aftermarket because there is no off road badge on tailgate

That looks stock to me, I have the same rear blocks in mine, and I don't see any lift parts on the front end, just different shocks

welcome to DF fellow Canadian!

Look at the underside of the hood or in the glovebox. There should be a sticker that will show the gear ratio along with many other things about the truck.

It all looks like a normal truck though, nothing special.

There should be a sticker in the glove box, with gear info on it.
