It's hard to tell if you don't know what to look for but a leveling key has a higher index than a stock key. Do the keys look like they've been in there since the truck rolled off the lot or do they look relatively new? The fact that you have 2" blocks in the rear and sit level means you have 4" of lift in the front.

If you are dead level you have a suspension lift and no added leveling kit which is a good thing....

i remember him saying that they used the keys from the leveling kit , because the stock ones werent on it anymore . and i do see new ones in the front all shiny n black.
it actually measures out at 42.5 in the front and around 43ish in the rear, the level kit was put on about 2 months ago and the bds about 2 weeks ago

They probably cranked the bolts down to make the level keys sit at the level that the stock ones were, which is fine. The big thing is that the CVs are not at a severe angle...

Idk what it is exactly in the pre 06s but in the 06-08s I have a 3 inch taller spindle and a 3 inch taller spring coil that gives me my 6 inches of lift
