Any idea on how I could figure out the type of lift? Like 3 or 4 inch or even if its a long or short arm lift.
From looking the pictures I don't think it is a long arm. I have a Tereflex long arm and the control arms reach much further inward on the frame. They are very obvious on a side shot.

I couldn't find a part number off the coils. Is it possible to just measure the coils or shocks to determined how much of a lift it has? Thanks for all the feedback guys.

If they are grey, you either have a Rubicon Express lift or AEV. IMO if they are grey and your running all Bilsteins TeraFlex arms and 35s your lift kit is the AEV 3.5 lift. Most don't lift to a 4.5 unless rocking 37s. Also Rubicon Express comes with arms usually...
