Stock ride height?
« on: February 22, 2007, 09:55:00 pm »
Can someone with a stock ride height take a measurement for me?  Measure the front fender lip to the ground at the center of the wheel.  I want to install drop coils on my truck, but I think it may already have them installed.  Thanks!

Tire size I'm running is 235/75/15.  If you don't have this size on your truck but are at stock height, please measure from the center of the hub to the fender lip.  Thanks!

The stock ride height from the top of the fender arch to the ground is 32 inches in front and 34 inches in the rear. .
Here's a chart with dimensions for stock chassis heights. Hope it helps.

Had to edit  for the right dimensions.
