Default What kind of lift do I have?

Ok, so I'm feeling a little emasculated by this but I've given up. I bought this jeep used with about 31,000 miles on it and it is my intro into the jeep world. I have already been off-road at Bridgeport this past weekend and I'm in love. I want to know everything about this thing and I just can figure this out. I know its lifted because it stands taller than a stock rubi. Its a 2008 Sahara and here are all the pictures I took to try and help. Thanks

The steering stabilizers are Trail Masters SSv and the exposed piston is about 5"(don't know if that helps)

i'm pretty sure the springs are stock cause the number matches up with some other stock wranglers I've seen plus they are dull and washed out

The floor to the bend in the fender is about 38"

The tire size is 285/70/17

Thanks again for all the help!

It's a suspension lift, more specifically a budget boost. You can see the polyurethane pucks on top of your coils in the one picture.

So the size of the puck is the size of the lift?
