any one know how high an 80 series with 4" springs should sit?
how do you know how much above standard your vehicle is sitting?

4" higher then standard I'd say.

Measure distance from ground to guard breofr and after?

ok thanks,

i.e when messurded from the top of a rim to the guuard (with flares) what is that distance.

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.
