I just bought this 00 Mountaineer 5.0 AWD, the camber appears to be jacked up as the inner of the front wheels are badly worn. The back is shorter than the front (which could just be sagging springs).

I wanted to know if there is a known stock height for these vehicles and where to measure as I think the TT has already been done with lifting the rear nor alignment. Thanks.

.





























the top of the rear wheel arches will be about 2 inches lower when the truck is level.Find a level spot to park, then, check the running boards with a level to see how much sag you really have.
 






Just wanted to make sure we are talking about the top of the front wheel well being at about 34 inches stock. I just put Warrior 153's on the back and it brought up the rear to 33.5 at the top of the arch from the ground and the front is at 33 even. So it looks like the front hasn't been raised?

^+1. That's what I do, I have a long level.
 






The level seems to represent the same info as my measurements. The rear is slightly higher than the front.

So at 33 in the front and 33.5 (after shackle lift) in the rear is it safe to assume the TT has already been done or perhaps the rear was just sagging that much?
