Stock Height

I looking for the stock height of the frame over the axle on a 2wd Blazer. I assume a truck would be the same. I measured mine and it is about 6 1/4. I want to do a 6" drop but not sure how much sag I have in 30 year old springs. Trying to get an idea what the actual drop will be when I put springs in.

There's a Blazer on ECE's website on the "stance pictures" page. Shows it stock and then lowered several different drop levels.

Tx Firefighter, When we were at the get together I looked under your truck and if I remember right you had about 1 inch clearance with your 6" springs. What Is the compressed height of your springs?.

I measured 4.5 inch of clearance between my axle housing and bottoming out on the frame.
