It depends on what tires are on there, does it not?

Not if you measure from the middle of the hub to the fender... Only the suspension affects that measurement.

Nich, OP tossed out 61.4" which would seem to be ground to top of cab, not the measurement you suggest.

ehow.com? Are you kidding? Have you ever read any of their articles?

Uh, true, but then it would depend on whether the fender was tweaked, and you can't set "ride height" that way.

"Ride Height" is called "Chassis Ground Clearance" in the manual. http://personal.utulsa.edu/~nathan-b...axle/3-2wd.pdf And yes, it depends on tire size and model. http://personal.utulsa.edu/~nathan-b...17suspensi.pdf (This page is for a '93 so it won't do you any good -- it's just to demonstrate that you need to know a lot more than you've told us.)
