About 5".....the 1/2 ton guys are getting by with 6" drop(from my understanding), but the tubes are bigger on the 3/4 ton axle. After about 4", you will need an adjustable track bar, & probably some shock relocators. crazyL

I have about a 5" drop on my longhorn, with no notch. that leaves roughly 2 1/2" for travel , with no bumpstops(about as far as I would go!) Your truck may take a little more , due to diffs in the longhorn frame. best of luck,crazyL
