    Another discussion got me thinking about lift type, amount, and tire height; and how those relate to ground clearances. So I figured why not get a thread going about it?

    I'll start with a setup that will cause the most drama to get that one out of the way for everyone :rofl:

    Hey Daryl-just went though the same front end exercise with a great customer of mine 2 weeks ago @smw62891
    6" DB lift vs. my +2 LT build (my skid plates = ground clearance lost). (30'ish PSI)
    Certain areas toward the LCA low points were the same 10.5-11", the DB lift middle was higher as expected w/35" tire vs 34" tire) 12.5-13"(plus has the center arc) vs. 12"
