I put the lift in one year ago. The front sits 21.25 from center of wheel to edge of fender flare. I cannot remember the exact amount of lift I got out of it, but I think it was at least 3 inches. My old springs had sagged quit a bit. Once the new arms and tie rod ends were in the alignment was way out of whack. So I took it down to the local shop and had them do the alignment and put on the new tires. I think it looks good and rides very solid. I will take it out next weekend and see how it handles off road.
Thanks to everyone on the forum for all the info.

Did you do also do anything to the clevis or add a plate? I'm curious because that's the exact lift I wanted on mine and my Rene is the exact same as yours lol

DJSKJ From your pics I do not see the JBA 4.5 Upper A-arms in there, maybe it was the lighting, but the RED normally really stands out!

Not that I have noticed. I took it out on some trails a couple of weeks ago and the articulation was pretty severe and I did not notice any rubbing then either. The last picture I posted was pretty lame. I think I need a new one.
