After mini-lift, what are your measurements?

[rsaylor2682]

After you installed your mini-lift, what are your measurements to your wheel wells. Front and back, left and right.

Thanks guys

I just put the 2.5 inch leveling kit from Top Gun Customes in that I got off of ebay for $110.00 including shipping. I have a 2004 Crew Cab LE with the big tow and the off road.
It looks great. 8 inches of clearance all the way around (Tire ti wheel well) I just put new Cooper Discover ATR's on it also. I took it to be aligned and it only needed a minor adjustment to the toe in. Me and 2 friends put it in in a little over an hour. Would have been faster but had to kill a few beers at the same time.

Wish I did it right away.

To have meaningful measurements independent of rim/tire size, you should measure from the center of the wheel to the lip of the wheel well. Measurements should be taken on level ground, also.

On mostly level ground, Titan 4x4 Crew Cab w/ BT and OR packages, 17" wheels, and PRG 2" front, 1.5" rear:

Front, ground to wheel well: just shy of 39"
Front, center of rim to wheel well: 23.3/4"

Rear, ground to wheel well: 40.1/4"
Rear, center of rim to wheel well: 25"

As Pauly said, the only meaningful measurement is center-hub to fender and straight up (90 degrees to level ground).

Here's why. Let's say you have 285/70/17 tire on. Your tire calculator states you have 32.7" diameter tires. Measure them and you might only be at 30" and someone else with the same setup measures 31". Inflation matters, but much less with the part of the tire not supporting the truck, (the top half). So ground to fender measurements are somewhat meaningless. Center-hub to fender has much less % of error. Hope that helps.

That's why I provided both measurements.

Sorry, I missed the second line.

No worries.
