It depends on the tires and if it had the towing package, I would think. My 05 was 36" at the top center of the fender opening. Also, there is no block on the 4x2.

The height of a "lift" is defined by the amount it lifts a truck over the factory configuration. A truck with the stock leaf springs has 0 inches of lift.

If this is not what you are asking, please clarify the question.

I mean the lift as in the difference between the bed and the axle. The leaf spring adds height, I need to know how much.
