Bagged, stock bed floor - tailgate height

I'm looking to bag my truck, but plan to leave the stock floor in the bed. Can anyone with this setup tell me the tailgate height off the ground?

I have a hard time getting my bike in and out of my truck at the stock height. I'm hoping this will help.

Thanks in advance. Oh, and pictures would be nice.

No measurement because they're not mine but

C10-Driver's awesome green one with stock floor (1" clearance w/ pumpkin)

C10Addict's awesome red one...stock floor and inner fenders/c-notch

Re: Bagged, stock bed floor - tailgate height

Wheel height will make a difference in your bumper height as well. For example, I will have a 31" tall rear tire on mine vs. around 29" factory so it'll sit 1" higher due to the wheel (2" higher overall wheel divided by two because half of wheel is above rear)

Yes, pictures would be nice. If you would post some, we might have an idea of what year truck you have. It would also help if we knew tires size.
