    Pics under the fender would be the way to tell. Try to include the coil bucket and upper control arm.

    Do you have a lift without changing the control arms? Could be why your boots keep ripping.

    Looks like you have a spacer lift probably about 3". Your boots keep tearing because of the angle. I would recommend a drop bracket kit for your front diff. and lifting that front with proper shocks and struts. Spacer lifts can be dangerous. I can't tell how the rear is lifted, maybe a leaf pack or an AAL. But the rear could use some new bilstien 5100's or whatever to improve ride quality. Just my .02 but maybe someone else can recommend more. And welcome to TW

    If you mean a diff drop, they're useless on a second gen. Loads of threads on this subject.
