Stock ride height 55.5
Anyone know what the stock ride height is of a 55.5 i forgot to measure what mine was before doing my MII front end and i want to see how much it dropped. the front of the step is what I measured from and it was about 10 inches I'm liking the stance it has

Re: Stock ride height 55.5
I'm curious myself, I measured mine before I did my sub frame swap but lost the notes I made also it was without eng/trans in. If I remember correctly it was 18.5" from the bottom of the frame to the ground but I'm just going from memory so it might be wrong

Re: Stock ride height 55.5
IMO that sounds about right since the frame sits a few inches higher than the door sill, out of curiosity I measured mine in the same place (after camaro subframe w/eng, trans & sheetmetal) and it's 8.5" I still have about 300lbs to go on which will likely drop it to 8"

Re: Stock ride height 55.5
Okay, its a 58 3100, with P235 / 75B15 tires. At the seam like in the last picture its right at 14", with engine 235 and 3speed trans, missing the front bumper, I doubt the bumber weight will make a difference.
This was measured at the seam not the bottom like above. And since the above picture the edge looks bent down some that isn't a very accurate way to measure it. Using the above method mine would be at 12.5 ". |
