Default Stock spring length (on vehicle)

I’m looking at buying a parts vehicle. It has what looks like aftermarket springs and shocks. But I can’t tell if it has a lift or not. Can anyone tell me what the front and rear spring height/length when on the vehicle? The springs are blue... if that means anything.

Measure from the center of the wheel to the bottom of the wheel arch. Stock is 19.5 inches give or take 1/2 inch. A 2" lift would be at least 21 inches.

Thank you for the advice. Wouldn’t different tire sizes change this measurement? My wheels are 16” s and the donor vehicle has 18” wheels. I was hoping to get a measurement from the top of the spring to the bottom of the spring on the vehicle. I took a picture of my front spring and it looks like about 10”. I’m hoping someone has a measurement of a front spring that has a 2 “ lift. I’m just trying to see if the parts rig is worth. I am hoping it has a lift. Because I need that too! Lol

The measurement from the center of the wheel to the bottom of the fender flare won't be affected by the tire size. It will be the same if your have 29" tires or 32's.

Well shoot. I didn’t think that measurement would work so I only measured the springs on the vehicle. The fronts were 10-11” and the backs were 13-14” givertake.

Default Discovery 2 Aftermarket Springs Colors (BLUE)

I removed the blue springs from the donor land rover I have. The blue springs are the same height as Terrafirma 2" silver springs when unsprung.. just sitting on the ground. Also, the shocks with this donor vehicle has procomp CS9000 92450 21089 Explorer. The rear spring cups were sitting on 1" round aluminum spacers.

I am trying to determine the brand of the blue springs so that I can make a decision of which set of springs I want to use.
Anyone know what brand of springs the blue ones are?
