Sierra Owners - Post your fender measurements please!


Recommended Posts

Posted

Im not looking for anything other than ground to fender lip in front and rear.  Not concerned about lifts or wheels, levels, etc.  Just the front and rear measurements.  Im just trying to see what the average difference is between the 2 measurements across board members.  Thanks.

 

Feel free to post lift, levels, wheels - but Im just trying to see the average difference between front and back

 

Mine:

 

39.75 Front

42.75 Rear

 

3" Rake

 

RC 2.5" Lift Level w/ 2" rear blocks

Zone 1.5" Body Lift

22x10 XD Monster

33.26" (285 50R22) Nitto Terra Grappler G2's

What are you trying to accomplish with this? Each truck is slightly different and it is easy enough for a person to know what their truck is just by measuring it... Your numbers are skewed because of the level and then rear block.

No reason, just interested in the numbers.

 

Spindle to fender is fine, Im just interested in the amount of level/rake/squat.

36.25" front

37.5" rear

 1.25" rake today.

 

but that is with 200# of sand in the bed. and you didn't ask for chevy's only gmc's, so disregard my numbers, lol.

I guess it doesn't matter,  I was asking for GMC bc of the fender protector that Chevy doesn't have.  I am interested in the after sand dump measurement though.

OK, after unloading my sand bags last night, I re-measured.

Front: 36.25"

Rear: 38.0"

Rake: 1.75"

 

I do have timbrens on the front, which lifted the truck maybe 1/2". So I think stock, I was at about 2.25" rake.

Stock 18" wheels and factory rubber.

Interesting that its a 1/2" difference for 200lbs.  Im about to put a overland truck cap on mine that weights about 180 and was figuring about 1/4".  The sandbag weight is more central though and the 180 for the truck cap is spread out along the bed, so we'll see.

actually I had the sandbags held tight to the tailgate to counter my plow weight. So the center of your cap's mass will be much farther forward than where my sand was. I think you will closer to a 1/4" drop like you predicted.
