Stock height measurements for reference? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought my truck lowered. I'd like to know how much it was lowered.

I need some points and measurements to figure it out. Points not affected by tire size. (Ex. top of spindle to fender lip at 90* or/and top of rear axle to frame.)

Talking about a short 67 with rear coils.

The guys at Early Classic say that a 6" drop will leave 3" between the frame and the rear axle. So it is safe to assume that there will be 9" of clearance with a stock spring.
