Default 07 JKU lift height

Okay so I've done my due diligence I searched all the threads and there's great information about lift height determination. I just bought a used JK and I need to find out what size lift is on it and I saw all the information about measuring the springs which was great however my issue is both my front springs are broken is there a way to tell on the back springs?I'm probably just going to go ahead and put a whole new lift kit on it eventually but for right now to save money I would like to just replace those two front springs.

There's a similar diagram for the rear, it should be filed somewhere under stock jk curb height measurements and ronjenx posted it. I thought I had a copy but I can't find it on my drive.

You have a picture of the broken front springs? Did they just die from rust? Can't recall seeing anyone with 2 broken front springs. My opinion is you'd be better off either replacing all four springs right now so they matched, or getting some cheap/free factory springs and using the budget boost spacers on top for the lift. Just trying to match a general height with the existing back springs, and then using mismatched springs with different ratings and ages (from the rears) is going be a mess. It's not just about trying to match the height. Just my 2c.
