A lot of people wonder how much lift they will get from adding spacers, Rancho Quicklift, Bilstein's and the different setting options, and lift kits. So lets start a thread with your fender heights. From the ground to the center edge of your fenders, front and rear. What brand, size, type of lift you have. And because tire size matters, make sure to include what they are too.

I think this will answer a lot of questions people have and what to expect if they put the same thing or something similar on their truck.

I installed a Rancho QL and ended up with 2" overall. Started at 37" and ended up at 39" ground to center fender. That's with the stock 275/60r20s. I would be happy to upload a picture, but photobucket doesn't get along with my computer.

Haha glad people are finding the humor in the title! I figured I had to come up with something clever for people to participate!

Mine are 38 1/2 front and 40 rear. Front has Rancho Quicklift, and rear is stock. Tire size is 285/75/17

I'm missing 2 cylinders
Do pretty much all the 1500s have the same fender measurements when stock? Or do things like 4x4 and air ride affect these numbers?

I do not know for sure, but I think 4x4 and 2x4 are different heights. For sure the air ride are different, because its adjustable.

Nobody wants to participate in this thread?
I'm thinking about ditching my Rancho Quicklift for Bilstein, Icon, King shocks or even something I dont even know about. With the exception of a shock spacer. But it'll all just be shooting in the dark if I dont know how much its going to give me compared to my current setup.
I know the majority of people have Bilstein shocks, and only a few people on here have King and Icon shocks. If you could give your tire size and fender heights, it would be much appreciated!!!!

I'll respond for anyone that is doing any research in the future.

My 09 Big Horn with Bilstein 5100's on all 4 corners and sitting at factory ride height currently Measures with 275 60 20's.

Driver Side Rear - 38.5"
Driver Side Front - 37"
Passenger Side Front - 37.5"
Passenger Side Rear - 39"

I have to replace my Tie Rod ends so I've decided to raise it up. Therefore, I have ordered new Bils for all 4 corners and Zone UCA's. I intend on going with the 2.1" setting upfront and then deciding what I am going to do with the rear. I am leaning towards stepping up to the 275 65 20. But am dragging my feet since the Speedo will need to be re-calibrated as well as the spare tire not matching. Not to mention the risk of giving Dodge an out of the PowerTrain warranty....
