Does anyone happen to know what the length is from the middle of the wheel to the top of the fender are? (4 wheels)

Left front= 18" Right front=18"

Left rear=19 1/4" Right rear= 19 3/4"

Thanks!

Notes
1. Both measurements where 1/4" above ave.
2. Coils and springs 23 months old. If fronts and rears didn't sag, then both measurements assumed 1/2" off to give 19 and 18.
3. Several newer lightnings were higher in the rear than others and bumped the stock average to 20.25"
