Need to specify with or without factory flares - they chop 2" out of the height equation when measured that way

Aj here are the figures from the link you provided

Standard car will be of order of 900mm to guards from ground - rear
slightly higher than front also car should be level on each side
within about 10mm when parked on flat surface.

GQ lift heights
standard rear bumpstops ~ 75mm
2" lift 125mm
3" lift 150mm
4" lift 175mm
5" lift 200mm
6" lift 225mm

All plus or minus 10 to 15mm depending on options etc.

Bazzle
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
roof height is listed as: wagon 1818mm, swb 1825mm

so going by those figures mine is 980mm from ground 110mm at bumpstops and if meassured correctly my roof hight is 1820


anyways from what everyone has posted and people i have spoken to it looks like mine has sagged about 1/2"

Dwaynes,

I just went and measured mine. From the centre of the hub to the top of the guard where the flare meets the body of the car was 590mm. Thats with no load in the vehicle and there is probably only about 15 litres of fuel in the tank. Hhave been running around on fumes today and didnt want to fill up with Diesel at 117 cents! I have the Koni long travel shocks in mine and standard nissan springs which I think may have been replaced recently but I have only had the vehicle for eight months. I am going to get new springs for a 2" lift, still trying to decide between the king springs and lovells. What springs/shocks did you end up getting? When I get it done, I will let you know the height. Only problem is I live in an apartment block with a 2.1m height clearing into the carpark. With the roof rack on at the moment, I only scrape in with a couple of inches to spare so it will make it interesting!

Mine measured 710mm front and rear, if you take into account the 50mm body lift and cut front guards, it would be about 660mm at the rear and 650mm at the front. This is with a 3 inch spring lift.
