Lowered?
At some point I think my '62 flair side 2x4 has been lowered slightly but not sure how much. Could a member with a truck in stock configuration take a couple of measurements for me. Using the center of the hub as a datum, from the ground to the top of the wheel well arch the front measures 30" and the rear 33 1/2". Thanks in advance, Dave.

Thanks for taking the time to check for me. When it's parked next to my '17 F150 4x4 with a leveling kit the '62 looks like a real ground hugger.
