One little picture explains quite a bit

Hey @jjvw , I know this is an old thread, but just to confirm: are these the specs for all stock TJs? I have a 97 SE, and am wondering if this is true for mine. I'm not sure how to do the measurements right myself. Thanks!

This is true for all years

Nice, thanks @jjvw . Also, just curious, but where did you find it? I ask because I had looked in my manual, service manual, and parts supplement, but couldn't find it. Or did you just measure yourself?

I've been keeping notes of things over the years

Cool. I just wish I knew where to find this stuff when I need it.

This is a great picture for reference. It illustrates something that may be confusing to many people, especially if you're more of a visual person.

Unless you have a fail like I did a few weeks ago. Came off an edge a bit hard.
