Welcome to the forum.

very nice looking truck you've got. Think my wife would have kittens if i don that to mine..

Pictures may have been clipped a bit, to make them fit the screen. I'm sure a techie IT type person will let you know soon.

And now from the ground to the begining of the wheel arch are 96cm, and at the end of the month i will buy a body lift with more 2 inchs, so i'll get bigger :)

I hope you enjoy
