Xj Lift Question

I have a 98 cherokee and was wanting to see excactly how much lift I'm netting. I searched but all I could find was to measure from the center of the wheel to the fender flare but I've trimmed alittle so that was out.

So I measured from the axle tubes to the frame.
Front was 11 1/2 inches
Rear was 10 1/2 inches

Any help is appreciated
Thanks

The way you Jeep sits with the cut fenders and 33s, I'd say you have a 3-4 inch lift.

My lift is a 3" lift with 2" spacers and 2" blocks
I'm wanting to see what the lift has settled at.
I done some more searching and one guy posted a stock xj measures 6 1/2 inches from the axle to the frame. If so that would be netting 5" but I'm looking for someone who knows this for sure.
