I can measure mine tomorrow for you. It is stock, no lift, stock rims and tires, no leveling. It does have Firestone aribags, but I don't think they effect anything. I keep them with about 6lbs of pressure when not hauling.

the you'd probably want the 2500 springs... gives about 2.5" of lift up front.

OK, gave it an effort.
Center front bumer to ground, excluding black garnish piece = 15 1/8"
Left front tire, in front of tire,ground to bottom of black garnish piece on bumper = 16"
Left front tire behind tire = 17 1/2"
Rear tire in front of tire = 19 1/2"
Rear tire behind tire = 22"
Center of tailgate top to ground 56 3/4"

Around the tires was a bit different because I have Mopar flares, so I measureeither infront or behind theflares, depending on tire, ground to bottom of sheet metal which includes the approximate 1"horizontal sheet metal piece.

Bear in mind, mine is a 4x4, heavy duty, and I do have the air bags, not sure if the springs are different.

Hope this helps and is not incredibly confusing.
