Can someone please help a guy out. I'm looking to lift my v10 burb and currently am running 33x12.50 mudders on 15x10 rims. Id really like to get an actual measurement from the ground to the center of the fenderwell, both front and rear, on a 2-3" and 4" lift. Thanks !

I can help out a little, with measurements for a 3" front and rear. I can get the front 4" measurements, but it would have to be from the center of the hub to the fender.

From the hub will work just fine! I just need a little better perspective than just pictures.
I'm looking at either the Rough Country 2" or 4". Probably going to purchase it by the end of this month so the more help the better.
Thanks!!

I just happened to see this old post after I did some of my own measurements on my truck earlier today. So for future reference there will now be some useful information here.

'77 K20 w/3" lift. 285-75R16 tires (33")

40" from ground to center of fenderwell front.
39.75" from ground to center of fenderwell rear.

Can I ask what tire pressure you were running front and rear? So I have a solid reference point? Thank you, I know this is a little old
