Default Leveling kit or lift kit?
How do I know if my truck has a leveling kit or a lift kit on it?

Look on top of the front springs. Are there spacers in there? Any tags or identifying marks on the springs?

So then most likely a lift kit. I just need to figure out what height now. I need to lower my truck to pull 5th wheels I’m being told.

Measure that spacer, that'll give you a good idea of how much it was lifted.. Take a look at the back, and see what they did there as well.

Ok thanks. I’ll do that. Is there typically a spacer of some thickness there on a stock suspension?

Yes. But off hand not sure the thickness. The front definitely has a spacer lift/level.
