Stock ride height?

['95Xplorer]

Hi, can anyone give the stock height of a '95 or similar X at the front and rear, ground to fenderswells? I want to know if someone has already tried to mess with it! PLEASE!!

Please don't take this as gospel, but before I did my torrsion twist/shackles, and 3" body lift, I measured ground to tp of the fender wells, and I believe it was like 21", not sure what that is in Cm. Hope this helps??

Considering factory tires on X's are 28 - 29 inches tall... I highly doubt the top of your fender wells were 21. I think maybe you meant to say 31? I think mine were 32.5 or something like that, but I have factory 30" tires. (255/70R16)

I guess nobody knows or nobody really cares? Thanks anyway!

It is close to impossible to tell you an exact measurement. Different tires, even the same size, will have different measurements. Of course, 95s could come with completely different wheel/tire sizes, so that would throw you way off. Particular vehicles (especially particualr trim packages) came out of the factory with different degrees of TT up front, and some came with different length shackles. Also, since the 95 is now 8 years old, all of them have sagged at different rates.

Why would you want an exact stock measurement? Just to know how far you have gone up or down?

i dont think to many people measure there stock height. i have 5inches of lift and 33's so a total of about 7 inches i measure 40 inches in the front so id agree with the post above stock is about 33 inches

Thanks guys! Really! I was just looking for a rough starting point. I'm new to this and I don't want to go too far with my TT. Now that I think about it I completely agree that every truck is different. My truck is an XL and 235's on it and a V6. I just don't want to crank the T's up if someone has already and put to much stress on them and my front susp. I appreciate all the opinions, I was just hoping to avoid any costly mistakes....
