This is the best I can do for a picture of 38in until I get to the ramp.

This rock is about 38in off of the ground. My other 3 tires are on the ground in the second picture.

I knew someone would spout off about the rock height. So I took another picture of it that I will post when I get off work. Not to mention the tire is in a divit when I flex because I have done it several times.

Now if you read what I stated you would know I claimed a score of 984. For those of you poor in math that's 34in off the ground. I never claimed 38". I said my GOAL was 38" after I finished my front end.

I still have stock front shocks for crying out loud! I have got new springs, and bilsteins off of a long arm suspension set up just waiting for me.

When I get the new stuff on and tweek it then my goal was 38".

does communication really have to be this hard?

you said you can park on a 38" tire with the other 3 tires on the ground.


and all you keep showing is pictures of that rock.

and even in those pictures that "38" rock looks just as high as your tires

For those of you poor in math that's 34in off the ground. I never claimed 38". I said my GOAL was 38" after I finished my front end.

Well if you were here, you would understand.. And I said as far as the rock was concerned "about" 38" To me that means 36-38".

But I know as I stated at first that It flexes a score of 984, which is 34" to the bottom of the tire.

And I hope to get a full 38" after my front end is finished.

Now here is the best picture I could take of the rock And what you can't see is the tire is actually sitting on rock that I did not move, so that is probably an inch at least. So if you think its smaller than 34 I will just say whatever. IF I had a ruler up against it you would probably say I changed the numbers also.

I stated a 38" tire did I not? I stand by that. Quit trying to make something out of nothing.

so you can park on a 38" tire without lifting a tire, but you can only go 34" up a ramp (by your own claim)

do you see how you are not making sense?

and besides, that rock you are on...you are not even all the way on the top. there is still a few inches of rock above the bottom of your tire.


im thinking you just need a legitimate picture on an actual ramp (like the one you say you got a 984 on.
