what actually is the stock ride height?

searched but could not find

anyone know the what the stock SA height of the fender lips front and rear with stock rims and tires is supposed to be . I'm replacing old springs with new coil over kits and want to go down an inch. Not sure if my current height has sagged from stock due to old springs

It says in the FSM. I do know it allows a .5 inch variance side to side and front to back.
