I notice a pattern....for the most part those who have 1st gen trucks say no lift, those who have later model trucks think there is a lift. These 1st gen trucks sit high. His truck looks just like mine, but maybe mine has a lift...I don't know. I put stock shocks on it and they fit, which I guess doesn't rule out a body lift, but you can't see the frame like I'd expect with a body lift. Unless my truck has a lift, I'd say you've definitely got a stock-height truck. I also agree that there's no trimming and those are definitely the stock fender flares.

Oh yeah, and you can see in my avatar what the front end of these trucks look like with saggy springs. My front leafs are beyond flat, they're actually starting to arch the other way, and that's my ride height up there. The first gens don't really get saggy like the later models, unless they've carried some seriously heavy loads over their lifetime.
