How long ago was the lift put on? My Rubicon Express kit sagged almost 1.5" when I first got it. But it corrected it self after a few days. I've heard from others that it isn't that uncommon with a new lift. But someone with your lift would be able to tell you better.

I currently have the 4" lift with all new control arms etc. I have no issues with sagging. THe rear wheels come within an inch of the factory sliders, but that is when it is fully articulated in the rear. It's a great lift, thus far.

Thanks,

Your suspension will cycle relative to the length of your control arms and trackbar. If your springs are sagging it wont change the path that the control arms allow it to flex. what wheel setup are you using? Have you removed the plastic air dam? Sounds lke you are running a factory backspacing with big tires. If you have a wheel with less than 4.5 inches of backspace then you may have your control arms ubber long. Put a photo up showing the contact. JP
