Front bumper height?
I still doubt that my truck is going to sit nearly level with the bed on.At first I thought the back was to high but now think the front is too low.So,I need some bumper heights from 67-72 4wds with the stock bumper.Please mention the lift size and tire size too.The bottom of the front bumper on mine to the ground is about 23 & 1/2 ".Does that seem low for a truck that is suppose to have a 4" lift and 35" tires? I might need to upgrade to a set of 6" lift front springs...
Thanks Dustin |

Re: Front bumper height?
that sound right to me i think with 6in lift and 36 in tires I was at around 26 I cant mesure it now to besure im in the middle of putting a d60 in the front. most states have 29 in frame to ground law.

Re: Front bumper height?
Well,since I put the bed on today the back of the truck has gone down and the front has gone up about an inch...Hopefully that continues as the back is too high,IMO and the front still doesnt look like it should...I need a 6" lift anyway,those 35s are very close to the fender cups and I'm not trimming the fenders!

Re: Front bumper height?
Well,the truck is finally sitting level!
The bottom of the back bumper (sport bumper) is 28 & 1/2" to the floor and 24 & 1/2" up front.. Im happy with the stance,but I'm still going to have to lengthen the rear d-shaft... Last edited by 1969k10stepside; 08-05-2007 at 07:47 PM. |
