Trying to get a real world answer on how much lift a stock PW has over a standard 4x4. Couldn't find anything via search and nowhere online can I find actual owner measurements on 4.5 gen trucks. Can someone with a completely stock 4.5 gen wagon measure from center hub and ground to top of fender well and report back? Thanks
 
I can’t find the pics I took at a dealership, but I had my 2015 2500 with 2.5” super lift spacers parked next to a 2021 Power Wagon. The front of my truck was a hair taller. The rear of the Power Wagon was about the same I think….and my truck was on 34.5” tires.
 
this might help you..on my 2020 Power wagon front measurement from center of hub to bottom of flair is 26.5" on back 27.5" and I have a GFC and wooden storage unit built in so probably 500lbs in the back so I am sure it is sagging a bit in the back. remember measuring from the center of the axle takes tire size out of the equation...park on flat even ground when you take these measurements.

Thanks!
 
My non PW measures out at 25" front and 26.5" rear. So it's not a two inch difference; 1.5" front and 1" rear. The PW having slightly less rake.

isn't amazing that these beasts are ridding on essentially 30.5" tires when on the truck.....

that surprises me your back is not a little higher than mine. I have close to 450-500lbs with my V1 GFC and storage cabinet (full sheet of 3/4" birch plywood and 8'2x4) I figured you would be at least 28-28.5" in back.
 
Out back, I am ~15.5"* to the hub, 43.5" to the fender. Stock 75th PW. I didn't check the front, but I think my 28" makes sense compared with your weight @jadmt .

I am pulled into my garage at the moment, so I may get a touch more due to the floor slope if I backed out... but I doubt it'd be anything significant.

*I'll probably verify this a bit tighter next trip out. I didn't realize how close we'd be discussing here, and a 1/4 inch +/- in either direction kinda has some bearing. My 15.5" was from basically just standing full upright with a professional head tilt to see better.
