Does anyone know the stock height from the rear fender wells to the ground?

i wouldn't try to lower the front with aftermarket springs--it really messes up the suspension after just a short time.
Lowering the front forces the linkages and control arms to angles for which they were never designed and they will bind the suspension under compression. Feels bad and tears up stuff too.
