Lifted or not? How to tell?
I just bought a 2015 Rubicon Hard Rock from the dealer. They said they thought it had a 1.5" or so lift but I'd like to know for sure. Are there measurements, heights or components I could use to narrow this down?

Do a google search of jeep jk suspension diagram and you will find what ur looking for. The stock spring perch to seat height is like 9.375. If u have stock spring there will be white tags on them. The fronts will end in a number btw 14-19 and the rears btw 54-60. The higher the number the higher/firmer the spring. If u have a jku hard rock the tags would be something like 19/59. Google the diagrams and I'll figure it out quick enough.

Will do, thanks. A quick measurement shows them at 'about' 13.5". Also appears there is a 3.5 raised bracket for the aft track bar. Pointing to a 3.5" lift. It seemed high but I didn't think it that much.
