Hi,

Could you tell by looking at the pictures if a standard shock works for my truck or if it is a 1" lift or 2" lift.
Thanks, Phil

Hi,

It can't tell by just looking. However, if you measure between the two lines I made on your picture, that should provide you with how much lift there is.

Take a look below and let me know if that helps.

Take care,

Joe
