spring length question
Ok fellas' i posted on here awhile back on what kind of lift i have on my jeep. I bought it with the lift installed and the guy i bought it from wasn't really shure what kind it was, All the parts are silver. But what im really trying to figure out is how much lift do i really have? i meassured my front coils today with the jeep sitting flat and full load on them and they meassured 15" long from top to bottom. How big of a lift do i got?

measure from the center of your wheel hub to the bottom of your fender flare.... stock the front is 17.5 inch's ..... take your measurement and subract that and it will tell you what your lift is

my fenders are cut out so that isn't going to work, I tried searching on who's spring is 15" long when the jeep is sitting level, but couldn't find anything. Is there anyone on here with a Rubicon 3.5" lift that could measure there springs that way so I could get an idea if thats what i have? Thanks fellas'

The rear is roughly 30 1/2" in the rear and the front 26 1/2" Thats with eye balling the tape straight up and down and not bending it around the tire and rim.
