    Dunno about axle to bump stop distance, but mine has a lift and the distance from the centre of the hubs to the top of the wheel arch is (I think, from memory):
    front - 500mm
    rear - 540mm

    a d1 with the heavy duty springs when empty sits about 30mm over the nominal height of a d1 with the stock srpings.
