Yup before I had 39 inch from the floor to the flat fender

Now I have 41.6 floor to fender

My old shocks are trash so I think that's why I had so much,
Shocks and springs are froma 2013 jkur hard top

With 76 miles on them :D

Umm shocks don't give lift.

Check yours against this stock diagram to see the real lift you got from the spring swap.

according to those numbers it should be 2.5 inches of lift...

but if the old shocks are bad the springs can go down a lil

and no the shocks have NO affect on ride height, only the dampening of up and down movement of said suspension...

Good job Brankz, glad to see no blood or guts were shed during your install!


Thanks you 2, we'll I had few problems with my head and the rear bumper when I was taking the upper shock bolts , but after that all was a pice of cake
