I see the rubber puck but thats only a inch. That inch block in the rear.
It got to be more then that it seems to be sitting around 3 inch higher then stock. but this is my first xj so maybe it not

Never seen the shock thing your working with, may possibly be because they were two short. You also have a coil spacer up front that looks like its maybe an inch but its under your stock isolator so its prolly adding 1.5 inches, you also prolly have taller coils on there. The back looks like a new pack or possible an add a leaf.
