Distance from wheel to wheel well

[mjquillici]

What's stock (no sag)? I just replaced my rear suspension with Moog springs and shocks with KYB Monomax shocks. Measurement from wheel to wheel well is 12.75 inches. I didn't measure before i swaped the springs and shocks, but it definitely sitts flatter.

I have to congratulate you on your choice of springs and shocks. I used the KYB Monomax shocks for about five years until I lifted mine. Great shocks in stock trucks!

Can't answer your question, but if it's sitting level you're good to go.

My question is - did you also replace the front shocks too? If not - you should. It's will make a world of difference in ride quality.

Why thank you! I did a lot of research.

I have not replaced the front shocks yet, but will soon. Just waiting on some $$.

She does seem to be sitting level, and I'm hoping that once I load her up with gear and people that she doesn't re-take the rocket launcher stance.

I just measured ours, wheel rim lip to fender, per the factory manual, and it measures 13 inches at the rear. The set up, is MOOG springs, factory rear shocks, and urethane control arm bushings. Since the suspension work , or rebuild was done years ago, it is in it's "settled" position. It took some months before the rear settled though. It does not move much at all with weight in it either.

Very good, so it sounds like I am in the general ballpark. Thanks for the info.
