Default 2001 Z06 Ride Height

If anyone could give me the measurement from the ground to the lifting point at the front of the driver door on their Z06 I would appreciate it. I have searched both the forum and the internet and have been unable to come up with this number.

It's about 5" on my car.

It won't take long to take a tape measure to one side of your car. Please?

Thanks. Mine measures just 5" in the front. I took it to the dealer and specifically told them I thought it was lowered and they claim it's fine. They also did an alignment. What gives?

Yeah, what concerns me is that the right front fender lip on the inside is scuffed a bit. I think it was like this before I got it but I can't be certain. I don't really want to shred my fender if I can help it, and the roads around here are kind of rough.

Hey, thanks man. I assume yours is stock since you didn't mention that you lowered it. I appreciate it!
