Default Leveling Kit + 18/59 and Rubicon Shocks on 2 Door Sahara

When I was looking to install a small budget lift, I could not easily find any before/after pictures of this setup, so this is more of a FYI for others. I just installed a Teraflex Leveling Kit and 18/59 springs and Rubicon Shocks. The ride is great and i definitely gained quite a bit of lift, i do not know the exact numbers but it is at least 3" in front and 2" in back. If anyone has 33x12.5x15 Duratracs on a stock 2 door sahara (i believe springs were 13/54??), please let me know your ground to fender height for front and back!

The install was pretty easy even though I had never really worked on any vehicle before. Here is my thread about the install:

Here is the before and after:
