Default Lift kit help

I bought my 95 ram 1500 4x4 with a lift on it, is there anyway of finding out how much lift is on it? He said it has a 4 inch lift, but on of my coworkers has a 2000 ram 2500 4x4 hd. And it sits the same hight. Mine needs shocks ATM and I dont know how much lift is on it

O it has 35's on it now, they don't rub unless it's flexed on the drivers side. If that helps lol.

Thanks guys

Probably anywhere from 3" and up. Got any pics? Why do you doubt that it has what he said it has?

Take a look at the rear, you should have 3" blocks that are stock, and then whatever else the lift put on there. Most lift companies don't lift the rear as much as the front, so.... probably add an inch or two to the rear lift, to get the 'advertised' lift of the kit.

He lied about everything else so why not that. I know it has coil spacers on it but the only look to be about 2in.

That does not have a 4" lift. Spacers in the front only, and the wheels are so far out is why you have almost no rub. And the reason it's just as high as your bud's truck is because of the giant tires, that are going to wreck your tranny.
