If I remember correctly, there is 9" between the fender and tire stock. So roughly 7-7 1/2" depending on how healthy your rear springs are.

Thats probably gunna be too low for me i went and measured the wheel gap onthe front of my truck with 265/70/17's on it now there is 6" that tire is 31.6 tall the 295/40/24 i have are 33.3 which is 1.7" difference so i can probably only lower the front 3" to have a decent amount of wheel gap for my big a$$ LOL and and road bumps etc so the most id probably do in the back is 5" i can get just about that by pulling the 2 blocks and lower big short leaf out and making some hangers or finding some i hope but if i decide to go any lower ill be in touch last thing i wanna do is get my fresh custom paint job messed up cause i went to low and a tire hit the body

Also when you try to take the blocks out the upper bolts for the caliper hit the leaf spring. So you will need to clearence the bolt and or spring. I think the best choice would be to rearch the rear springs the amount you want dropped and possibly fine tune the height with adjustable dropped shackles.
