That thing would look sick with a 6 inch lift and 37's I dont know what the factory frame height was

im going for a 8 inch lift with front coils and a 3 link on the front i already have some 38/15.5/20 Mickey Thompson mtz and some rev dirty 20by10 inch rims sitting in boxes waiting. i will be building all the suspension using stock 97 dodge axle brackets welded to a 78 ford high pinion axle. and ill be using dodge front springs the rear will be a mostly a stock set up. That is why i need some measurements i don't no any one with a stock one of these to get them.
