Ride Height question

[LBarr2002]

Does anyone have the measurements (or can you go measure) the front ride height of a first gen stock? I'm looking for a measurement without sag, so either someone who has fairly new stock height springs, or the skyjacker 2" springs and I can subtract 2" from the measurement. I guess the best measurement is bottom of wheel to wheel opening?

I've got a set of spacers, but I'm trying to decide if I should use them or go ahead and buy the skyjacker springs. I know there are more advantages to new springs, but I've already got spacers. I have a set of 32's that I need to clear, so if my truck has sagged much the spacers may only get me back to stock height. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I checked 5 different first gens in a parking lot today. All appeared to be stock. The front from ground to edge of the wheel well averaged 32 1/4 and the rear averaged 32 1/8. Hope this helps. Sorry it took so long to post.

Thanks, I'll get out and measure mine when it warms up a little...

Just got out and checked it. I knew it had some butt sag, but I didn't realize it was that bad. My measurements were 33" on the front and 31" on the back (with 30" tires). I guess that's about right for the front by those numbers. I guess I'll be using the spacers up front and both AAL and shackles in back to level it up.

I did f150 spacers and war 153s on mine. With stock 235/75r15 tires mine measures 34 3/4 front and 34 in rear.
