2wd Measurement Request

I need to know how much rake a stock 2wd ext. cab has. Stock or BL will work. Tire size doesn't matter, I just want to know the difference between front and rear.

The measurements I want are from the ground through the center of the wheel to the lip of wheel opening, where the yellow lines are.



Thanks for your time.

Stock rake is usually 1.5". Smakes drop is just a bit more in the rake dept. I have seen older model trucks like Smakes with more rake, but I attribute that to sagging front springs. All late model trucks I've delt with have around 1.5" rake. With a 4/5 drop on my truck, I'm 28" and 28.5" to the top of the wheel wells.
