On my new rig an 86 standard cab it's 75" to the top of the roof with a 4" lift and 33's. The torsion bars are not cranked in so I could get a little more if I decided to.

My turn - nothing very interesting.

Make - Toyota
Year - 87
Model - 4Runner
Height to front spring hanger - stock
Height to very rear of frame - stock
Height to bottom of frame under door - stock
Height of transfer case skid plate (or just case if no skid) - stock
Height of tires at "X"PSI - Dunno - BFG M/T one size larger than stock on 7 rims(previous owner used to run 3-4 inches bigger than stock). 235/75/15?  27 front, 35 rear. - will measure tonight.
Height to bottom of front diff - slightly taller than stock - will measure.
Wheelbase - stock(lol)

The interesting thing was that the truck was seriously lifted and modded at some point - there are all sorts of welds and anchor points all over the underside.  The second owner(my friend) had it returned to 100% stock.  And now I'm going to mod it a bit back when I get some more money... :)
