Default Stock ride hieght of 95 blazer.....

I have been messing around with the Torsion bars trying to gain a few inches to accompany the bigger shackles in the back, the problem is that i am not the original owner and i know that the previous owner did something with the front suspension. Before i go too far can someone tell me what the standard ride height of the front end, any measurements would be good? thanks

measuring the distance between the lower control arm bushing bolt center line ( at the back) and the lowest inward edge on the steering knuckle, factory spec for all 4wd from 87 to 96 is 4 13/16 inches. 2wd same years is 2 7/8 inches. I have a book with all specs, with pics of adjustment and measurement points, for every car made between 87 and 09 if you need any more measurements.

97 S-10 Blazer 4WD Stock Ride Height? Did a forum search and all I came up with was this post covering 87-96. Thanks
