4/6 guys, and stock height

ok, so you have 4'' of drop in the front, how many inches from the ground to the top of the wheel opening of the fender?

stock- same question, how many inches?

i just put 2'' lowering springs on the front, with 2'' spindles and 275/60/15 tires, and i think its at 29'', and on ther other side with the stock spring its 30'' so it lowered it a measly inch.

thanks, Jeff

I have 3" DJM Drop Spindles on the front of my truck, with 255/55 17's (Same size as 275/60 15's) and it sits at 29" in the front aswell..AND I'm gonna replace my cab mounts in the front, so it will probably go up HIGHER. (I figure I'll have 29.5" on each side..)
