Default ride hight question

I am looking to see what the ride hight is on a 2000 or so disco with 18 inch wheels. The reason is i see a parts truck for sale and the fellow claims that it has a "small lift kit in it" but he does not know whos, or what size; it was before he bought it.
The truck measure 32 inches from the center of the wheel openings to the pavement both front and rear, which is just about the same ride hight as my truck, which I thought was stock height but I bought mine used, possibly it was lifted.
So anyone with a spare minute and a tape measure, could you please take a measure and get back to me.

Mine has the factory 16" tire size, no lift, and a brush guard on the front. I just measured 32.5" on the front and 32.7ish" on the rear.

The 255/65/16 and 255/55/18 tires are only .1" difference in diameter (16s are .1" larger)

*just noticed you have 255/65/18 instead of 55... the 255/65/18 has a diameter of 31.1" versus the 255/65/16 diameter of 29.1"

lordmorpheus,

Thank-you for that response, so I can asssume that there is no lift kit installed.

Yes, either that, or it has a lift kit that is sagging VERY badly!
