Well...my truck is a mess and I can't find my measuring tape. MIA at a job site.

Anyways, I googled it figuring someone has already measured this and bingo.....

Summary:

Ground to Fender
1. Fr 26-3/8" R 26-5/8" Difference of 2/8 or 1/4" (0.25") Rr Higher
2. Fr 26-1/4" R 26-1/2" Difference of 1/4" (0.25") Rr Higher
3. Fr 26-1/2" R 26-5/8" Difference of 1/8" (0.125") Rr Higher
4. Fr 26-1/2" R 27-0" Difference of 1/2" (0.5") Rr Higher

Hub Center to Fender
5. Fr 14-5/8" R 14-1/2" Difference of 1/8" (0.125") Rr Higher

So in summary, all 5 cars have a higher stance in the rear with a 5 car average of 0.25".

This would explain the extra 0.2" drop in the rears for H&R springs.
