What’s your hub center to fender height? Trying to figure out if mine was lowered 3/4 or 4/6. Wanna lower her another 1” to fill the gap a bit with my new 22” on 30series rubber

This is long overdue but I finally installed the ECE suspension I've had in the garage for about 4 years :lol::lol: Here are some details:

ECE 4.5/6 drop with drum to disc conversion with (2.5" drop spindles and 2" drop springs) Rear has 6" drop springs, shock relocator kit, and super track bar kit. It's frustrating that they are unavailable for support as a number of small parts were missing (banjo bolts, prop valve mounting kit and lines, dust caps, etc.).

Tires are 255/55R18. I have since put different Nitto NT421Q tires on but no pictures yet. Wheels are Eagle Alloy 146s I'm guessing BS is 4.5 or 5.5. While the tires fit with very little clearance, I'd suggest a shorter tire.

Overall it's riding really well but the brakes are dragging so I'll need to figure that one out.

Maybe got a little carried away but I dig how it turned out. Cheap and low. Jaguar ifs up front, explorer 8.8 and suspension out back. 20x9.5 and 20x11.5. Rides great because both suspensions are totally stock.

Hey cornfed, I like the interesting route you went with the suspension.
Do you have a build thread or? I can't view the pics in the link.

Already Gone,
If that question was directed at me: Front was done with 2.5" drop spindles along with new stock height springs. Rear was done with progressive rate 4" springs only.
