Will you please measure a few things for me? (on a level surface, with stock size tires)

 

1. From the ground vertically through the center line of the wheel to the fender arch. Front and rear please.

2. From the center of the hub/axle vertically to the fender arch. Again, front and rear.

 

I'm trying to figure out just how much lift My car has with the current springs on it and I don't have a stock one to compare it to! I know all my lift dimensions but am going to mathematically figure out how much lift I have over the stock geometry. If you could take these measurements for me please so I have some numbers to reference as a baseline I would appreciate it. Ideal situation would be a Loyale 4wd running 175/70 or 185/70/13 tires that is 100% stock in reasonably unloaded condition (not hauling bricks home from Lowe's or something!). Maybe even have a few folks measure and report back to have some close to repeatable numbers, that would be ideal.

 

Thanks in advance, Spencer

if no one has replied by monday, I can look up ride height specs. Is it 4wd, cuz those were higher to begin with. Also, year would be useful, although I doubt it is different.

Damn you should have told me a couple of days ago. I had my 85 wagon up on the ramp with stock susp and tires. But just did my 2" lift. Sorry I couldnt help.

ok, so for a 90 loyale 4wd wagon, specs are; front: 9.6-10.94, rear: 9.64-10.82. Not very useful in that range. For an 88 gl 4wd wagon, front: 9.7", rear: 11".

hope that helps.
