figured as much... Paul did find in the FSM some measurements regarding Suspension and Front End Alignment.
I should have taken some measurements of the rear wheel in Stock configuration... hind sight!
Right now the running board is 16" at the front end and 17" at the aft end. Looks good to the eye.

You'll probably make me do this... but here you go.
Now just add the lift height and the new tires to the stock height values.

Guy,
I suggest springing for a lifetime alignment from Firestone. I don't know the current cost of this service but usually it pays for itself after the second alignment. Trust me, you're going to be aligning your ride more frequently than you think! Given the cost of tires and how much we tend to muck with suspensions, alignments are important in our world.

No problem at all! I found a "bolt on" solution... the only difficult part was cutting a notch in the 3/8" plates to clear the axle.

yes... we're heading up to Colorado Springs at the end of the month for our son's return from Afghanistan.
I plan on a short trip to Golden for a set and possibly skid plates... steel belly with aluminum front and center, pending funds.

Say hello to Christo for me. He's not in Moab, which is very strange. He's always here.
