mod height & stock height ?

[Xavi77s]

Ok need some info. Is stock height supose to be the same for both front & back? because I have from rim lip to fender 9 1/2' back & 7 1/2' front so my point is if I do a TT ill have them even all around (9 1/2') but I'm planing on adding a leaf & 2' copperhead shakles to the back making the measurements different all over again ....to even all out would I be abel to TT again or should I try tursion keys would that work? Even after a TT .....& does anyone know what the stock hight should be with stock tires on a 1995 explorer xlt ?

well i can tell you that its probably not a good idea to raise the tt over 2" due to the cv joints.. as i remember your ex was lowered at one point? so you may have some more room to play with. ill get accurate measurements for you tomorrow but i believe i had 13 or so in. from ground to the pinch weld on my body i can get you fender gap measurements also

Yes ty reason I am asking cause I do not know if it was lowered in the front & I am trying to figure out the stock so I wolnt over lift due to the cv joints

sry man i been sick a few days... so stock is about 13" from floor to pinch like i said, and top of front rim to fender is right around 12" rims being 15s. also ive heard some shady things about the copperhead shackles, 1 the holes drilled are too small and have to be drilled out (unless they have addressed this issue) and 2 they come unpainted so may want to throw some paint on them so they dont rust.

Nah its cool thanks for the info the more info the better & thanks aswell for making time to get it (info) & yeah I seen those youtube videos & I contracted them I even brought up the video lol they said that they have fixed that problem (the holes being to small) the only sucky part that they come unpainted so yeah gonna have to paint them ...........once again thanks a bunch for getting that info for me really appreciate it!

i would not go with copperhead, they are not street approved. dont cheap out, spend a little bit more money on the dessert rat shackles, much stronger and come painted...
