back to front rake of a stock 71 3/4 ton 4x4?

anyone out there that can measure this for me? also whats the distance from the middle of your hub to the wheel arch opening at the top (towards hood)? i put a lift on the front of mine and id like to get an idea of how much i lifted it.

so far ive only got the left lifted, and theres a 2.5 difference in hub to arch on left and hub to arch on right

I have a '71 K20 with stock height and running 33's.Anyway,it
sits with slight rake,little lower in front.From ground to top of
fender well arch,the front measures 37 inches and the rear is
around 38 inches.At front, the measurement from hub center
to fenderwell arch is about 21 1/4 inches.I would like a 4 inch
lift to fit 35's someday.
