Is it true that it has 2" less ground clearance than KJ? |

you have to account for spring sag on your measurements. The front diff moves quite a bit after the suspension settles |

E2, that's a nice drawing, thanks. I checked around a bit and Cars.com states that KJ has 9.5 " and KK has 7.8 " I didn't think there could be this big difference.. http://www.cars.com/go/compare/trimComp ... 90JES132B0 |

My measurements were taken at about 5000 miles. I have other measurements for the rubicon (245/75r16), a tacoma (non-4x4) and a 1985 landcrusier that I took to compair and figure out what height I need in a lift. |
