Thank you for that but I need the measurement to the top side of the fender at its highest arc, maybe 32 to 34 inches?

With the stock tires set at 30 psi, the overall diameter of the front tire is 25.6 inches and the rears are 26.7 inches now add the 4 inches for suspension travel and you are at 29.6 + - 1/2 inch. and 30.7 + - 1/2 inch. this is from the ground up through the center of the wheel to the apex of the wheel well crown at the fender opening.
