Check out this thread, there is a picture of an IDF M51 that is burned out. From what I've seen that is the most extreme spring collapse. Others don't have that much sag. The M51 was heavier than a 76 armed M4A3E8.

I didn't see much on a google search.

Looking closely, that tank appears to be bottomed out and sitting on the bogie mounts. I don't think it could go any farther.
