What is the amount of drop on a STOCK pitman arm??

Looking at my angles, I think I would benefit from another inch. I was told when I did my lift, that my arm was already a drop and not stock. I think I compared it to a stock XJ once but can't remember.

Anyone know it off the top??

Although I haven't accually messured it, the stock pitman arm has about 3-3.5" of drop. I've read that stock ZJ arms have about 1" more drop than stock XJ arms.
I use to have a skyjacker arm which had about 5-6" drop, but I would not recommend it due to increased stress on the steering box. I think thats what took out my stock steering box recently.
