Measure the fender lip to the ground, this is the number most use.

They Measure 27 1/2 from ground - the drivers side is about 1/2 lower at 27 - what is the normal stock measure measurement -

thanks!

Measure the real Z&D heights. These are suspension measurements, not body measurement. Measure the difference from the lower ball joint on the lower control arm to the center of the bolt on the inner side of the lower control arm. This height difference is the way they were measured when they were built.

I'm not sure what stock is but the 25-26 range you'll start to have clearance issues.

Jughead

The AIM lists stock fender lip height at 27-28 inches, so you're right on there.

ddecart is correct also.

Your pic's pretty small, but from what I can tell, your ride hieght looks fairly normal. Believe it about the clearance issues--my front springs got a little soft over the years, and one day I took a sharp right turning into traffic and lost a 2" chunk of the lip of my fender well. Looked good sitting that low, though!
