to clear this up...the best way to find out how much drop you have is to measure the center of your axle (center of the wheel) to the bottom of the rear fender well opening.

mine has a 4 inch drop and i measure 13 inches from fender well opening to center of my axle.

ford assassin, if you measure 12 inches, than you have a 5 inch drop which i would consider close to the drop of a flip on stock equiptment.

mine never hits with a 4 inch drop but if i went 5 i would probably hit going over railroad tracks...

keep in mind, these are blazers and 2 or 3 people in the back seat will definitely hit axle with a flip!
