ideal ride height after lift...

[jgolden]

After installing the Slee diff drop and OME torsion bars, what is the "ideal distance" between the center of hub to start of fender.
"Ideal" meaning a good range for CV angle, lift, tire clearence, etc.

thanks

I don't know that there is an "ideal". The OME kit calls for a certain amount of droop to be left in the suspension, but that's the only before/after measurement standard I've heard of. Some of it has to do with appearance, how much rake you like, how much of a load you'll carry, etc.

I'm at ~37" from fender lip to floor, don't know where I'm at with your measurement.

What size tires are you running?

who taught you how to measure a lift? Somewhere on the wheel to fender...ground to fender creates variables like tire size, type and even tire pressure.
