Default Stock 2wd height front/rear? (04)

Just bought a 2004 2wd single cab short bed slt hemi with 17s.

Truck is great but I find the ride surprisingly harsh and something just doesn't quite feel right about the way the truck sits.

Previous owner did some light mods and the truck looks "level" to me so I'm wondering if maybe the rear is sagging. Of course my other vehicle is a durango so may just be a case of adjustment on my part.

Can someone give me stock heights for comparison sake? I realize they'll all be a bit different but at least I'll have an idea. I guess road to top of the wheel well would be the most consistent measurement?

Edit: Ok, I am a dumbass - my 2wd Durango has front torsion bars, I just assumed the 2wd Ram was the same. Now even more suspicious about the back.

Check and make sure the tire air pressure isnt too much. Also to level the 2wd he likely used coil spacers on top of the front coils so that can compress the coil more and make it more rough.
