swoop Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out what size lift i have on my parts truck. I bought a 87 mj swb with a d44 out of a metric ton for 80$. Its got a home made soa lift in the rear so it has to be 5in. or over. I read the thread on measuring from the axle to the unibody to tell the only problem is there all kinds of snow under it right now and i can't do that. What I did was measure from the center of the wheel to the top of the fender flares and came up with 23in. in the front and 25in. in the back. Any help would much appreciated. :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swoop Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 If any of you guys have a stock mj can you tell me the distance from the center of the wheel to the flair? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help would much appreciated. :dunno: Measure from the center of the wheel/axle to the UNDERSIDE of the flare -- the edge of the wheel opening. For a stock vehicle, the front should measure 17-1/2" and the rear should measure about 21-1/2" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
