Hey everyone! I posted this in the general section but people don't seem interested in measuring and this may be the people more interested in the results anyway. So I'm just looking for some info from everybody on their trucks so I have some more information on variances, etc as I'm working on the Ranger's rear end. Anyone who has a minute (stock or not/list what work done to the rear if any), I would really appreciate it!
Just looking for 1 measurement from each side while the truck is on FLAT GROUND (or all 3 if you have time, and all on the REAR END of the truck ONLY):
1. From ground to wheel arch/fender on each side
2. From center of wheel hub to wheel arch/fender on each side
3. From top of leaf pack to frame directly above.
Please measure both sides (part of this experiment is because I'm finding some fairly interesting and non-insignificant variances in these numbers side to side and truck to truck).
And if you can note any differences side to side in the actual equipment, that would be great as well (for instance, mine had an extra 1/2" inch shim under the left side U-Bolt/Leaf Spring from the factory that wasn't matched on the right so you may have some interesting one sided equipment too).
Also, note if you could 2wd or 4wd, tire pressures, and gas tank fill level as those can all affect the numbers.
Thank you all so much!
