Determining lift amount
So my XJ has a story pre-dating my purchase of it in 2013 - long story short, previous owner install a 3.5" to 5" lift - not sure exact size or how to measure it. I've replaced my front shocks well enough with SkyJacker N8025, and I've done a far job of finding the right suspension parts until now.
It was at my mechanic's today for some work and I've been told I need a new sway bar link:
Not the greatest image - the mechanic took it.
I'm not even sure where to start looking aside from Quadratec : https://www.quadratec.com/products/56004_02.htm
Am I heading in the right direction? Any advice?

No, I don't lick fish.

I like to go with the frame to axle tube method because it's the most accurate. Fender could be bent, flare could be moved/removed, or the flare mount could be messed up throwing off the measurement.
