welllll I heard from sober advice, who should know, a beer can between the tyre and flair with a 7.5x16 tyre is about right.
I have also heard 115mm between bump stop and diff from a respected source. I looked at a new 130 at the dealer and it seemed to have about 85mm between stops and diff.

So take you pic:D

the general consensus seems to be about 75mm for the front...

Dealer didn't want me to crawl around under the 110's on their lot for liability reasons...christ you would think I was a suicude bomber not a defender driver.....OK.. OK..I see the link:D
