    Measurements for my standard V6 with about 90 litres of fuel. An ARB bar goes on soon so I will see how much difference it makes.

    Front = 745mm
    Rear = 770mm

    Samo,

    I noticed you got Gx model... Do you have standard toyota 17x7.5jj rims on yours?

    Also we'll need to check the measurements again in about a month time once a suspension has settled...
