Aluminess nerf bars, how much impact on ground clearance?

[Boondox]

Howdy All,

I am looking at Aluminess nerf bars for a 2016, 130"WB, 4X4 Transit. From the pictures it looks like the hang pretty high up, at least compared to most. Anyone know how much ground clearance they eat? Looks like abut 1.5" from the pics but hard to tell. I call Aluminess and they said they would get back to me but haven't so far. So I am hoping that maybe someone here has a set and knows. You would think that was a number Aluminess would have handy.

Thanks!

If you're interested, zero loss of ground clearance and a true rocker guard with high-lift jack points. Makes for a great entry step as well.

Those look pretty cool! I think I may muscle the cash up for those!

I called Aluminess again, the said 2.5".
