need a little bit of help please

a few moths back I purchased a 1986 chevy wrangler 4x4 the one of the PO's of the truck had it lifted. I was wondering if someone would be willing to measure from the center of the front hub to the lip of the fender so I can can have a reference point to help me determine exactly how much of a lift I have. The truck has 1/2 ton axles. Thanks in advance

Craig

The 235s throws it off, but could be a 4" lift. Look for a block in the rear.

Nice truck you picked up there.

I'd really like to have a gun rack for my lowrider

That would do it for all the locals around here
