Default Make some measurments.

Can some people measure from the center of their hub to the bottom of their flare to give me some feedback on determining a lift size. I measure the back wheel and got 20.5". I was told that stock Cherokees are 17" in front 16" in back. Let me know your measurements with a 3" lift kit and or a 4.5" please.

Okay man thanks... also state what size tires you have... because I think that would play into the measurments too I guess... bigger tire more the measurement. But I assume you have a 3" and 31's... that's usually what most people do.... am I correct on that?

I assume you're trying to figure out what size lift you have on your Jeep?

If that's the case, the measurements you're asking for has nothing to do with tire size.

Measure it like this:

I already said I'm running 235/75/15. 31s were freebies that I run when I go mudding.

I didn't trim my fenders but I should because it was rubbing on it.

Sorry man... I don't know much about Jeep or Jeep components/vehicles yet. I always say by inches not the way you say it. I have a lot to learn.

What are you trying to accomplish? Identify your lift?

Did you read what I posted?
