M35 front end leaf spring loading

A question for deuce owner/operators.
What is the clearance between the front leaf spring bump stop and the frame
above it for a vehicle with new springs? My springs are sagging a bit because
of the 3500 lb crane mounted midships and that clearance on my truck is only
1-3/4 inches. And that is without the winch. It tends to make it a hard ride
on a rough road.
Thanks for any info.
