    All,

    Tried the search on this one and saw all the comparisons of options, lockers, scoops(!) between the models, but didn't find info on the one question I have.

    Are there differences in suspension height (specifically wheel/tire clearance) between the three models?

    The reason I'm asking - if someone with a Sport or Off-Road, with stock suspension, has no issues with a particular wheel/tire combination, is there a good chance that I will have no issue with the same combination on my base model SR5? I know there are a lot of factors to be looked at (tire style, pressure, mudflaps, etc.), but I figured if they were at least riding at the same height, I'd have a good chance at making a good comparison with a setup someone has already proven.

    Thanks!

    Yup, they are all the same. Might be a very slight difference between a truck with a lot of miles and a brand new truck, but not much. If it fits a stock sport or OR it should fit yours just fine.
