I assume it's all factory but I think the suspension is settled down and it sits about 30.5" from ground to bottom of the fender front and rear, on 275/60r15s. I'm trying to figure out how much i want to lower it but I'm afraid a flip kit with spindles and springs might be too much with the old factory leafs. Are yours the original leafs? Any measurements that you can give me? Components you used?
Thanks man. We're using Mcgaughys 2.5" spindle in the front with a 2" spring. In the back its currently a standard flip kit on the original leaf springs. I'm also running a 275/60/15 in the back but currently do not have it on the ground. Once it's done and on the ground I can confirm the measurements you're looking for.
