'99 100 series front ride height

[Desmond]

Hi fellas
recently got my first mod for my LC (ARB combo bar) , but being the idiot I am, i forgot to measure the original ride height so i can crank the T-bars to get the height back. Can somebody please tell me how far it is from the ground to the highest point of the front wheel arch? Thanks

The dimension you ask for is dependent upon tire size, type, inflation etc. However if you adjust the rig so that you have a 1" rake from back to front (1" lower in front) you'll be where you want to be (at least for initial dimension) for this rig.

now that you mention it, that makes complete sense. I'll do the 1" rake thanks ^^

Or you could have someone measure from the hub centerline to a consistent point on the lower lip of the fender...sorry I am not near mine right now.

It's too late now you'll have to buy new suspension. Good news is all you need is new t-bars, dif drop, rear springs, and shocks all the way around. Don't forget allignment. Even if you got it back to pre bumper height still a good idea. Also time to buy a winch too, that way you save money on the alighments. Can you sell the wife on it?
