Measurements with V codes and X codes?

Does anybody have ground to bottom of fender measurements with the V codes and/or X codes on a V10 excursion without any other suspension mods? Please also include what size tire you are running.

I'm tyring to decide which front springs to go with, and have to make sure it fits under the garage door when completed! Thanks.

I don't remember what that measurement was on my previous Ex, but I will tell you that I had 1.5inches before hitting my standard size garage opening with V's and 285's.

Ultra, I have the extra leaf on my X codes so my setup is more than you are asking and I got 3 7/8" lift on my frontend with my swap.
I also have this info from my notes from years ago on this site by "bruce1954". These ride height changes are all based on new springs and may vary a bit based on exactly how worn out your stockers are and or if you use used springs and how much settling they have.
Spring code...... Capacity...... Rate...... Travel...... V-10 EX...... PSD EX
"B" V-8 stock.... 4100lbs........ 330........ 5.02"...... -0.25"......... -0.66"
"C" V-10 stock.. 4300lbs........ 350........ 5.01"........ 0.00"......... -0.37"
"D" PSD stock... 4700lbs........ 380........ 5.14"....... +0.33"......... 0.00
"V" .................5200lbs.........430........ 5.13"........ +1.77"........ +1.5"
"W" ................5600lbs........ 450........ 5.34"........ +2.77"........ +2.52"
"X" .................6000lbs........ 470........ 5.54"........ +2.90" ........+2.68"
Hopefully this will help some.
