Measuring how much lift I have

Hello to all! I purchased an 05 Ranger to replace my 02 that my mechanic totaled (yes, no joke). The seller was the widow of the owner, and she knew nothing technical about the truck. I can tell it's lifted, I just can't tell by how much, and that is holding me back from doing a much-needed shock replacement. Does anyone know the geometry and the stats of the factory ride height? I'm hoping someone can tell me "measure the distance between this and that" and you'll know how much lift you have. This is a suspension lift--no pucks between the body & frame. I'm running on the Goodrich 31x10.5 R15s I salvaged from my first Ranger.

2005 Ranger XL (regular cab, 6' bed)
4x4
Auto tranny
4.0L SOHC
65,000 miles
(Yep, I found a unicorn)

Welcome to the forum

Have a look here: https://www.therangerstation.com/sto...er-dimensions/

Just an FYI, the 2005 Rangers did not have PATS(passive anti-theft system), there was a $$ issue with the supplier, so Ford skipped it that year in Rangers
