Lift vs ride height list

ebg18t · Jun 22, 2013

So in the suspension thread we have a lot of ground-to-fender heights. But given all the suspension setups and tire sizes I think we should start a list measuring from center of wheel to fender. This measurement eliminates the tire size variable.

I think given all the questions about real lift amounts I think this should eliminate some of the redundant threads.

So let me start.

Heights:

Front = 23.5" both right & left
Rear = 24" both right and left

Suspension:
Front - Fox 8 way adjustable piggy back with 650# springs
Rear - Fox 8 way adjustable piggy back with OME 895 springs

Weight additions: BajaRack, Engel MT-45 Fridge & Slide, armor and 2nd battery.

Heights:
Front: 21.5" (sagged a lot due to my ~100lb bumper)
Rear: 24"

Suspension:
Front: Bilstein 5100, set at 2.5" with FJ coils
Rear: Fox 2.0 piggyback shocks with FJ coils and Daystar 1.5" spacer

1.25" Bodylift

Heights:

Front: L=23.5, R=24.5

Suspension:

Rear: Toytec superflex coils and 5100's.

And a 1" body lift.

This would vary depending on how full the gas tank was, aftermarket bumpers etc and other junk in the vehicle.

Great info guys. Lets keep this going. More options we have, the easier it will be for new questions down the road.

03_4x4 runner - correct. We can't eliminate all variables. But trying to get a list going by removing tire size and wear variable. If people post that they have a xyz bumper folks can take that into acct. my ride height is almost identical (within 1/8") with a full tank of gas vs with quarter tank gas. Other softer suspension might sag more..
