Height of stock front spring?

I just ordered some drop springs for my truck and I want to make sure the drop is where I think it is before I pull the others out.

Does anyone know the height measurement of a stock unsprung front coil spring ? I just want to compare the stock measurement to my drop spring. I am 99% sure it's a 2" and the Hotchkis site says 2". I called them and confirmed before I bought them of course ..

I'm just paranoid because If I bust the ball joints apart and the springs are incorrect I won't be happy. One of the websites mention a 4" drop spring but I just don't see how it's possible to drop 4" on stock LCAs? I'm pretty sure they're 2". I bought them as a kit.
