stock front bumper height
My 50 f1 is measuring about 9.5" Is that about right. I am running 225/75R16 on rear and 225/65R16 on front. I am considering running 225/85R16 on rear to help with cruising speed and fuel economy. Let me know if this sounds about right. Thanks.

Mine is 12.5" with what I believe is a stock front suspension. I am running 255/60/15 tires on the front and 275/60/15 on the rear.

Right click on the picture, select save image as from the drop down menu and save it someplace on your computer where you can find it (change the name of the file to something easy for you to find/recognize at the same time like "F1 dimensions.jpg") and save it. Now find the file where you saved it and double click on it to open it in your picture viewer where you can enlarge it as much as needed to easily read it and or print it out and use a magnifying glass.

Thanks AX, I'm old and if I could read it, it would be a great help. the eyes just dont want to cooperate. And are people measuring from the bottom of the bumper or the top?

https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...dffdc19818.jpg I'm assuming that one means fully loaded and the other empty? The problem is what are the measurements? :-huh The other problem is that those measurements are to the top of the frame rail behind the rear axle . . . which is probably a better place to measure ride height anyhow. |
Sorry, I saw those codes too when I enlarged the pic. It wasn't my pic so I don't have the coded measurements.

I believe that the problem is that he doesn't know what FH & CH mean?

I don't know what they mean, but I think it's showing a 4.28" difference between FH and CH loaded and empty for the front. The rear shows LH and EH which I would think are Loaded and Empty Heights and shows a 7.7" difference at the rear and a 7.52" difference behind the front axle when loaded.. I know that probably doesn't make sense either but ... :-huh |
Here's another factory drawing with the frame height and larger numbers:

Using both charts and deducting the 4.75" to the center of the 5" bumper and deducting the remaining 2.5" I came up with a stock bumper height of 12.77" Mystery solved, I think.....until next time
