How high?
Register to remove these ads. It's free!
Hi guys, just bought this 2500, its got a mixed bag of lift parts and I'm trying to figure my lift height. Hub to fender front is 32" rear is 33". Ground to fender is 48" front and 49" rear. Its got 35" ProComp AT's on 16X10 wheels.
I know it has a big coil spacer on it, looks lie 5-6", I'm guessing my springs are around 3". It also has a long arm set up of unknown brand.
Anybody got stock hub to fender measurements for the 2500 5.9?

I don't have stock but I have an 05 with 35x12.5x17 and a 2" level that's just over 43" from the ground to the lip of the fender flare (43 1/4" I believe)
I can't remember hub to fender off the top of my head

Thanks for the #'s Stang, I'm looking to lose the big spacer and maybe run a 1 or 2" one instead. That'll bring me down to around 4-5" I think. If ramhunter is is 45" I'm at 48" now swapping the spacer should get me close to his #'s.

Can anybody tell me what long arm kit I have? Looks like a Fabtech but I'm not sure.

I was looking at the LA setup in the pics, and can't really make it out (brand-wise.) I know it's not an Iron Rock, and most of the FabTechs I've seen, usually have the bushing-end of the arms gusseted. not to say this couldn't be an earlier rendition.
those front coils look awful skinny wire diameter, too, after looking at my 2500's front coils.
