I measured preliminary ride height (where the coil over takes the weight of this corner of the truck) vs what I believe to be full droop, stopping the suspension before the uniball's max out and still well within the operating angle of the CV shaft) and it looks like easy 6" of down travel.

That is about what my Bronco II has
