measuring lift height

[sylvanis]

So i will be adding a Rock Hard 4x4 front bumper and Warn XD9000i on "the hulk" this weekend. It will undoubtedly bring the front end down a bit due to the weight.

The real question is what is the best way to measure the height. I have heard to measure the distance from the bottom of the fender flare and the center of the wheel and also to measure from the bottom of the flare to the ground.

Anyone have any suggestions?

If you really want to know the exact amount it settles to, by adding the extra weight. Measure from the top edge of the rim, or center of the axle. This way if you change tire size or tire pressure your measurment will be accurate, in the future. When I changed my fender flares all my original measurments were lost. So if you ever want to change flares remeasure.

Thanks! I don't need an exact, just close enough for somm spring spacers.
