Clearance from bump stop to frame

Just curious, for you people that have stock springs, how much clearance does your bump stop on your lower control arm have to your frame? Years ago, I replaced my front springs on my 87 GN with stock springs (dont remember the number) and I only have about 1 inch between the bump stop and the frame.
The ride height seems normal, was just curious what other people have for clearance.
 
That's probably pretty close...remember that the amount of travel is different at the bump stop then it is at the wheel...1 inch at the bump stop will be much more by the time you get to the ball joints.
