My stock '06 CRD with 24k miles measured 12.2" (31cm) front and 13" (33cm) rear, These were measured from the bottom of the front wheel well, rear pinch weld called "front" and the rear wheel well front pinch weld called "rear." Is this about right? What do you have? After lift(s)? |

Don't see much value in your measurements. www.boulderbars.com will answer your CRD lift questions if you look at their CRD Frankenlift. |

I think he is trying to figure out how large of tires to get that will still clear the pinch welds. Rob, 245/75/16 will clear the pinch weld, but will rub on the plastic shielding, you can either cut away the offending shield, or heat it up and bend it back out of the way. |

A better measurement is from the center of the Jeep along the pinch weld where the rear crossmember resides...It used to be called the LLL...Liberty Lift Line. You put the tires at stock PSI...have at least 1/2 tank of fuel...measure both sides...average...that is your starting measurement. The pre lowered KJs were about 13.5" I think if memory serves me...after lifts and tires we were getting 16.5"-17.5". Basically it gives you the lift amount at the Breakover Angle Point. |
