Look at the top of the rear spring to see if there is any spacer other than the OEM rubber spring seat. That would be the only way the rear is lifted.

huh, gotcha. I dont think theres anything on the rear spring other than the normal OEM bump stop. I was under the impression stock was 20" hub to fender on 5th gens? So i thought this was a 3" rear, 2" front lift setup. But yeah, I remember from the 3rd Gens that Toyota paints their springs similarly. I thought maybe someone else had borrowed that cadence.
When I am next to a stock 5th gen, I definitely feel a few inches taller (like I did in my 3rd and 4th gens) and it looks nearly the same height as runners I suspected to be lifted. Ill have to find someone lifted and compare side by side. Theres probably a dozen lifted 5th gens in my church parking lot lol
Maybe Ill crawl under there again today and take a better look. Its been so cold and wet lately I havent wanted to really get under there to see properly.
