Would be nice to know if it's 2wd or 4wd.

My 98 4x4's tbs were around 22'' before I cranked them. Their around 24'' from the center of the wheel to the bottom of the wheel well after cranking. Truck sits level now, so I'd say I had around a 2'' factory rake. Same with my old 97 2wd, it had around a 2'' factory rake as well.

It's a 2wd and I jacked it up until it was level and measured the height difference and it was two inches. So thanks every one for the answers.
