Lift Height on my Patrol

Hi all. Proud new owner of a 2012 GU CRD

I'm trying to work out how much it has been lifted if any. Starting to make improvements and additions to her and starting off with new wheels and tyres.

My measurements running 17" stock rims from bottom of rim to wheel guard is 850mm rear and 810mm front. From the centre of the rim it's 580mm front and 620mm rear.

I haven't been able to find factory heights for the vehicle yet...

Cheers

Definitely looks like a 2" lift.

I measured a standard GU Ute on flat ground at a dealer to check against my wagon, and I measured bottom of the rim to wheel arch ( normal way ), and also measured ground to wheel arch. Can't find the bottom of the wheel to wheel arch measurements, but found the ground to wheel arch at 920mm.

I did it this way also, as that is the way I thought the Police may check as they wouldn't have the other measurements, and would be looking for the overall 75mm change in suspension height limit

I always measure from centre of the hub to the wheel arch, takes into account differences in wheel diameter.

But another vote for looking like a 2in lift
