Measured from the bottom of the frame (under the cab) to the ground.

Re: ride height???????

would 5 inches be a universal ride height? I was wondering because mine doesn't lay frame but i would like to ride as low as possible

Re: ride height???????

Ride height is a good subject.
I would think it depends on the OD tire size and wheel BS and also your driving habits. The lower the ride height,the more steering room...right?

Discuss.
