I messed up when I got my van. I forgot to measure the height of the bumper, rear wheel well etc from the ground while it was empty. Im just curious where it's supposed to be and how much I loaded it down.

T350 SRW extended/tall. Cargo.

Probably not much help to you but here are 2 pictures of my empty T350 QuadVan. "They" say a QuadVan lift adds ~2" but I have no way of verifying that number.

I've got 15" from the ground to the bottom of the rear bumper.
32" from the ground to the center, bottom edge of the rear wheel opening.

The measurements I stated were for my van, "empty". The passenger seat has been removed but replaced with some open cabinets. I've added a floor, bed, insulation, ceiling, 4 rows of E-track, 4 E-track ratchet straps, 12' of ⅜" grade 70 chain with hooks, a pair of 6 volt batteries @ 75 lbs. each, small Engel refrigerator, a bunch of other junk. Last time I was on a scale I weighed 7160 lbs. with me in it.

Ok cool. Last time I measured I'm at 30-1/2" inches rear wheel well.

I weighed earlier this week at the scrap yard. With me in it I'm at 8700lbs. ! I'll be closer to 8900-9000 once I get my last order from American van.
