i don't know how much lift my car has in the suspension, so i was wondering how high a standard GQ is up to the gutter with 31's on so i can measure mine and get a rough idea....

According to the glovebox manual for my Maverick, overall heights are:
1855mm (pickup)
1865mm (chassis cab)
1815 (wagon std)
1795 (hardtop xl) ie SWB
Oddly, this is despite the fact that it lists 7.50R16 (approx. 32"), 10R15 (approx. 31") and 215/80R16 (approx. 29.5") as tyre options.
So I'm not much help really, am I?

i measured the bumpstop clearance, and got 100 - 110mm, so i think that i may either have a 1.5 inch lift (i have been told this was a standard koni/king spring replacement for stock suspension), or a sagged 2 inch..

my replacement the same as yours ben which was a sagged 2" so i think i may have "HAD" the same thing.
