Awesome stuff. Extremely helpful. Thank you

Sweeeeeet rigs!!

Measured mine per recommendation above. Seems like I have a 2.5” SL and I know it’s a 1” BL

Pondering some 295/75/16’s. Kinda split the difference between 33’s and 35’s. Little narrower than the 12.5’s so would roll around the tarmac nice

6" Rancho lift (so says the PO) and honestly I have not measured it.

Can't tell you how many times I heard "it's got a Rancho lift" no matter how high, and no matter what color the springs were.
But since Rancho NEVER made a 6" lift for an EB in all the years I was selling them, it's probably someone else's lift. And a quick measurement between the frame and axle will tell you how much.

Although, I admit I heard a rumor that they made taller lifts for a very short period of time. Probably before Tenneco took over and they got careful.
Either way, be very curious what the front coils and rear blocks look like, and how much it actually measures out as.

Pondering some 295/75/16’s. Kinda split the difference between 33’s and 35’s.

I like metric size tires for their slightly narrower overall width. But remember when comparing metric to flotation sizes, your metric conversions will often turn out to be much taller than the flotation equivalent.
A 265/75-16 is every bit a "narrow 33" in flotation sizes. Put them up side-by-side with a 33x12.50 and you'll see.
A typical 33 runs about 31.5 to 32 while a typical 35 runs in a 33.5 to 34 inches. Not sure what a 295/75-16 measures out as when it's on the vehicle, but I bet it's taller than some 35's.

Yes Paul I need to get under there and do some measuring to see what it actually has. For now it works, flexes and gets me down the trail just fine.

And not that I learned the trick to measuring I am curious to know just how much it on it. All in do time.
