Calling 99 stock suspension 3rd gens

Can someone do me a favor and meaure your 99 4runner from the bottom side middle of the body (where running boards would be) to the ground. Of course with no lifts would be best. THANKS

Uh oh, my dirt driveway is uneven, or my truck is!

One side is 19'' and the other is 18 1/4".

I'll do it over again in a while (when I go out to level concrete).

I'm running 265/75/16

Hi,

Would it be possible to include measurement from the hub center to the underside of the fender flares for both front and rear?

Appreciate it. Thanks!

So, if I have the tow package, why do I sit lower (since I would have the HD springs)? I didn't know this before....

Hmmmm...

My 2000 measures 18.25"-18.5" with 275/70R16 tires. Subtract 0.25" for the tires and that puts it between 18.0" and 18.25" to the bottom of the pinch seam.

Center of hub to the bottom of the flare is 20" up front and 20.5" in the rear.
