Maybe about 3" higher than stock. Give or a take a little, depends on how much you cranked your torsion bars and what true size your tire is. Every vehicle is different. Get out a measuring tape!

Use the adjustment procedure outlined in our web pages: Trim Height Inspection Procedure

I have air shocks on the back of mine with 2" shackles and 500 pounds of pea-stone in the cargo box. With the shocks at 70psi it runs leavel with the front pretty much. I only cranked the T-bars about 3/4" . Also have the 2" BL. With stock 235/15s the front well is 34 1/2" and the back is 35". With the 31s the front sits at 36 1/2 and the rear is 37". All 4 corners are a little different. I have all the measurements from stock, 2" BL, T-bar/shackle and tires as I did the mods.

MY stock ride went from
DF 31 5/8 to 36 1/8
PF 31 7/8 to 36
DR 32 to 37 3/8
PR 33 3/8 to 38
This comes to about a 5" avrage

I'll measure tonight. Put on shackles, cranked the t-bars 1 3/4", added 2" body lift, and just yesterday had some 31" x 11.5" x 15" Cooper discovery LT's mounted. Saw some pics of the day I bought it two months ago and was shocked by the transformation. Also did the air box mod.
