Hi All,
This is prety much a copy of Jeff's post about suspension measurements (http://www.pradopoint.com/viewtopic.php?t=1056), however it is using a different way to measure the suspension lift. Theoretically is it should be a more precise way of measuring but it will only work if you have standard toyota 17" rims.. For other rims the figures would be different...
The measurement used here is: from bottom edge of rim where it meets tyre to edge of fender
So can I ask you to get out the tape measure and post your results?
:arrow: Standard, mm
:arrow: standard with accessories. and what they are. (e.g bar only) mm
:arrow: lift in inches but no accessories. mm
:arrow: Lift with accessories and what they are.(e.g bar, dual batteries and winch) mm
And for all the guys who recently had or are going to get suspension lifts, this is probably a good thing to check and record for your own benefits.
I will keep a tally and edit it in to this first post, see below.
