Just wondering if the GM lowering shackles give 2" of lift with a 2" lowering shackle or does a 2" give you 1" of lift?

People report anywhere from 1.5" to 2". The stock schackles are 4" hole to hole and the Belltechs are 7.5" (or 7.75" can't remember) so half of that is about 1.75" of lift.

I got about 1 3/4" out of mine. Not finished yet, have to deal with the shocks, but i don't expect the height to change much.
