Ride Height Dimension

Can anyone tell me what the stock dimension is from the middle of the wheel to the wheel well? (See picture)
My truck is a 98 4WD XLT Super Cab.




I am tying to determine if my T-bars are cranked. I bought the truck used and I think it is higher than stock.

Maybe someone can measure their truck, T-bar cranked or not?

do you have a pic of the side of the truck showing the whole thing? we can probably tell from that...different tire sizes will also effect others measuring

I will take a picture of it tomorrow. The dimension from the center of the wheel to the wheel well is not effected by the tire size. Only a lift will change that.

This is how Ford recommends checking ride height.

Ha ha! I was going to post that myself, lol. That's the real measurement and takes away any variables with the sheetmetal or body mounts.

Rev's on it.
