Hey guys and gals, I bought a 2002 Ram 2500 gasser, it came with a body lift, thats obvious, however I am trying to build this truck and knowing how much lift is in it will be helpful. I dont know what parts are stock or part of the lift because of the rust. can anyone help me identify what this truck might have for a suspension lift based on the picture?
The large block is stock, the smaller one is part of the lift. There is likely coil spacers up front as well.
Yes there is, Thanks for clarifying that. I presume the truck would sit level with the larger of the 2 spacer kits available , its got spacers and still has a noticeable rack front to back

That is intentional. That way, when you have a load in the back, either in the bed, or a trailer, the rear won't be significantly lower than the front. Makes sure you can still see what's in front of you, and doesn't unload the front wheels as badly, so you maintain some steering control.
Here's a stock company pic for reference:
Many owners added 2" lift to the front to level it out. Companies started selling these pucks or spacers as simply "leveling kits." On 2500s, they are often 3" leveling kits due to the rake.
