So, when I go to do a 3" lift up front and a 1" out back of my truck, I totally expecting the number from the center of my fender to the ground to go up just that.. 3 in the front and 1 in the rear.

When I was out just not measuring the distance, I noticed my tires are between 31 and 32 inches - stock bighorn 20" wheels and tires..

So what can I expect doing that 3/1 lift and then going from a say 32 to a 35 inch tire?

take the 3" difference and cut that in half and expect another 1 to 1.5" inches of lift for a total lift of 4" up front to 2 inch in rear?

If anyone has their measurements handy for a 2.5 bil lift and 35 (center of fender to the ground) I'd love to hear where it sits. Would help give me a visual of how much taller the truck will be.

thanks :)

If you're lifting it 3" front/1" rear and the tires will add another 1.5" to that, measure your fender height and add 4.5" front and 2.5" rear.... I'm sure things might settle a little so it might not be an exact lift, but you should be within an 1/8" - 1/4".
