Assuming the stock tires were 6.70-15’s, per the following Coker link those would be about 28.5” tall, which would seem to indicate my suspension is pretty close to stock if the LMC spec of 32” is correct.

If you need a photo of the snubber clearance let me know and I'll get a picture of it later in the day.
Ya if you could post a pic of the clearance that would be great. I would like to see what proper clearance looks like.
