Anyone who could take this measure ment front and rear and post that'd be great! Thanks...

 

Bump?

 

I'm running 265/70/17s but I also have a torsion key lift and my torsion bolts cranked a tad to lift it a hair over level.

I can do these measurements if you want, let me know.

 

Not to be an *** or anything, why not go find a stock 97-03 F150 and throw a quick measure on it? I'm sure there are tons of them around you...

Just had to ask.

 

Ok, first let me explain my reasoning for asking this question... I'm spending some time and a little bit of $ getting my truck into the stance I prefer and I'm wondering before I'm done with the truck how fatigued if at all my rear leaf packs are from running loads of contruction materials and whatnot and if they should be replaced (my local Ford dealer isn't any help and niether are any websites thus far)... I'm asking for the measurement from the center of the axle to the tip of the wheel well because it factors out wheels and tires and I can subtract body lifts and lift blocks in your truck as well as mine to get where our trucks sat at stock and compare... If I find my leafs are beyond tired I'll replace em and don't want to put larger blocks or extended shackles to find down the road if/when I replace leafs my rearend jumps up 1.5-2" or something and have to remove/replace blocks or shackles cuz it looks funny to me... I guess the front is harder to figure since its adjustable.

Second, The main reason I am asking on here is because I'm looking for an average because the leafs are gonna vary a little and don't wanna drive around lookin (read below) and if you've never worked the truck these are the measurements I'd prefer but I'll take what I can get.

And Darth, good idea and I thought of that but the reason I'm not runnin around the parking lot takin measurements on other peoples trucks is because A: I wouldn't like to walk out of my local **** shop to see some kid in a hooded sweatshirt and backwards hat hovering around my center caps or lookin under my truck (for a body lift or blocks, add a leafs etc)... and B: in my area you might just get a tire iron in the back of the head while crouched down by someones wheels.

Sorry for the long post. I'd appreciate the measurements AXFX4, Thanks in advance.

 

^^ No worries, I was just curious is all. I'm not sure why you're parked at **** shops, but...

Also I should have made it clear that I meant for you to ask the person the truck belonged to. I never meant for you to be sneaking around under people's trucks. Not to mention, I don't think a person driving a completely stock truck w/factory wheels is all that worried about a guy looking around their tires and suspension as long as it's in a normal area. Like I said, coming out of a **** shop you're already looking sketchy.

Sorry to make an issue of it, I just figured since you never got a response the 1st time around you may consider checking out somebody's truck near you. That said, you may also consider NOT wearing hoodies or backwards caps when asking someone if they mind you measuring their fender clearance.

Good luck on your search. You could also consider looking for an 97-03 F150 on a used lot so no one cracks your head open for looking suspect. Again, good luck on finding the info you're seeking.

 

Pickin up the latest issue of Plumpers!! and a copy of midgits gone wild #72 haha jk... I don't dig the **** shop scene but Ya do hafta park at one here sometimes to go to the coffee shop!

stock wheels or not this measurement doesn't factor in wheels in so I might've been hovering around some XDs or Moto's or somethin... but you're right I could ask a fellow F150 owner as they come out to a Parkin lot. Thanks man, Nice truck By the way

 

Wow, that's an odd mix. Coffee shop and **** store... I prefer Big Butt over Plumpers...

Thanks for the compliment and good luck on your search.

 

PM sent.
