I saw in another thread where a few people gave some measurements. But it was a thread on another related subject. I didn't want to get off topic...so here it goes!


STOCK MEASUREMENTS ONLY PLEASE:


Front Wheelwell (center)......32 1/4"

Mirror ( outside end)............45 1/2"

Rear Wheelwell: (center)......32 1/2"

Just to let you know that those measurements will be varied even on totally stock KJ's due to different spring rates(something like 12 different OEM ones),options(tow package,OEM skids,pre-lowered,and such),and different OEM wheel/tire packages.

Good thought though but would only really work to get true total lift on just that 1 KJ before and after.

Actually, what I want to see is how it varies, because of what you said. I think it would be interesting.

I do have some measurements somewhere from before the lift install that I might can find. (I only have measurements to the flair, I think)

In the beginning in a L.O.S.T. land far far away, there was an exhaulted measurement called the "LLL"...the "Liberty Lift Lie". It was take on level ground on the Uniframe rail by the transfercase. It is where the uniframe has a notch...you meansure from the uniframe just behind the notch. I think that prelowered Kj were at about 12.50" or so and lowered were around 12.00". With the OME lift and new tires, I am at 14.75". We picked that spot because it was in the middle of the vehicle and measured to a point that will be the same on every KJ. You can measure both sides and divide by "2" in case you are not sure you are on level ground.

I like the paint job underneath, looks good.
