    Red face Has my Safari been lifted?

    Does anyone know the standard ride height of a Y60? I'm not certain if mine has been lifted or not (just bought it). It's riding on 32 x 11.5 tyres on 15 inch rims and looks just slightly higher off the ground. I've measured at the front wheel arch and it's 900mm from the ground, or 400mm to the running boards. Is this about standard?

    Crikey - memory is ordinary, but I think standard on the front is 535mm from the centre of the wheel hub to the steel of the wheel arch on the out edge (not the plastic flare)

    Someone might correct that number, but I think it's something like that.

    Youre best off measuring from the centre of the hub/wheel to your wheel arch this deletes the height differences effected by different height tyres. cant help you with standard though i got 4" lift. Ill measure that tomorrow if you remind me AM got a sh1tty toddler to deal with AT the moment :-)

    IF YA DONT GET STUCK YA AINT TRYIN HARD ENOUGH........OR YA TOOK THE CHICKEN TRACK

    ....ok , it's 535mm centre hub to top of wheel arch so that settles it, my truck is spot on standard and bigrig's memory is extra-ordinary. Thanks guys.
