1.5-2" is what they claimed ;-)
prokit claims 1.2"

I think it actually went right at 2" on the drop on mine

yours looks good. actually looks to be about the same drop as mine. Mine is hard to see in the shadows within the wheel wells in the pics, but the distance from the tire tread to the wheel wells is about 1.5 inches and the distance from the rocker panel under the door to the ground is roughly 7 inches
