Hi

Have a read through this thread;
http://www.offroad80s.com/how-high-is-y ... lit=height

These measurements are from center of hub to bottom of wheel arch flare.
We can all approximate our lifts from the figures below; I gathered these numbers from the previous posts.

Stock:
Front 520mm - Rear 525mm

2inch Lift
Front 560mm - Rear 570mm

4inch Lift
Front 645mm - Rear 670mm

6inch Lift
Front 690mm - Rear 725mm
Have fun.
