measure from the bottom part of your fender to the center of your hub, stock is 17" what do you get? example: 20"-17"=3" lift

this wont work if your fenders have been trimmed if they were let me know and i will find the other way of measuring

No rubicon dose not make a 4.5 its a 5.5. I do not know if it can be modded for a 4.5. However Rock Krawler dose and its a nice piece too. Its part of my dream add-ons list.

They sell a long arm upgrade kit. That plus 4.5 inch coils/leaves and you would have your kit.

i run the RK upgrade with RE springs. I like it
