I didn't think so but now two different mechanics/Chevy guys said they think I do. I have AMP springs on the Blazer, 22-402's in the front and 22-403's in the rear, which say they are stock height springs.

The shackles look regular and I don't see a body lift, so I don't see how it's lifted, but I have 31" tires and I have 8" 's between the top of my tires and the fender, measured at the middle of the hub. I also have 37" 's between the ground and the fender, measured at the centerpoint of the hub.

If the company labels their blazer, 1/2, and 3/4 ton springs as the same part number that could easily get you higher than normal.
 
newer than 1991 model year springs that are not sagged out will be making it look lifted over all the rest .

measure from bump stop mounting point on the bump stop bracket to top of axle tube. if I recall this is how you measure to tell .
 
Stock front springs will have a negative arch. Body lift will most likely have bumpers that look lower, unless someone went through the trouble of modifying the bumper brackets. Can you post a couple pics?
 
Measure the distance between the top of the front axle tube and the bottom of the frame rail, stock = ~8". For example, a truck with 4" lift will measure approx 12".

My 80 k10 has one new stock height 52 out back, sat about 2" higher than the sacked out other one.

Talk about a coincidence here :haha:
