Can any of you with a 3" lift and 31" tires measure the distance between the ground and the bottom of your fender flares (front and back)?

I'm starting to think my front isn't as high as it should be despite getting new springs. Thanks guys.

You should measure from the top of the axle to the bottom of the frame, this way you take the tire sizes out of the equation. I have an MJ with 3" lift I can measure it in the morning if no one chimes in before then. This will only help you in the front the back will be different.
