So, I just purchased this truck, 2014 Ram Express, and I love the way it looks but I feel like it has been lowered. It was previously owned and looks all STOCK except for the ride height which is weird, because these Rams normally all look 4x4 lol. Here is a picture of my truck and I am wondering if it actually is lowered or did some Express packages just sit lower?

Definitely lowered it looks like. Looks good though.

Have any profile pictures? Maybe just a rear level?

It has definitely been lowered. Take a look at the shocks and springs, there might be a brand or colors that would I identify what parts were used. Or the factory springs were cut...

I looked at the rear springs vaguely yesterday and they just look like stock srpings? I will take another look today, but the truck rides pretty good and doesn't feel like a lowered truck does.

Thanks, Idk how these trucks look stock exactly but it's not this low. I wonder if someone did a 2/4 drop on it? Do any of you guys know the exact color of this truck? lol i keep calling it midnight blue but thats not a Ram color.

Here is a little better shot of the truck. Also this is the best pic of the rear spring I could find.

McGaughy's springs, if it's also springs up front then you have their 2/4 economy drop kit. If it's only the rear spring then it's probably a 2" rear-only spring

I couldn't see the front springs all that well to get a picture of any part number or lettering but if you drop the front 2 inches it would tuck the tire I have a feeling...
