Default Superlift owners measure up?

Hi, I would like to know what you guys are getting for final ride height after having your lift in for at least a month. If you could measure your spring height I and Superlifts techs would appretiate it. Measure from the top of the axel tube to the top of the spring.

Please include a pic of your jeep and which lift kit is in it 3" or 4". I seem to be sitting rather low in the rear end of mine. I'm measuring 12" from the axle tube to the top of the spring. 3 at Superlift are measuring 12 3/4". Mine has a hard top, roof rack, and a 33" tire on a steel wheel. Thiers all have hardtops, rear bumpers, tire carriers, and 35 or 37" spares.

Thank you.

PM sent to you, sounds like you might have gotten 3in springs. I have the 4in and it's 14 3/4" in frt and 13 1/4" in rear measured from spring perch to where the top of the spring sits on the isolator. I have a 35inspare on a crager and a heavy tool box in the back. Front bumper is a Fabtech tube and skid( not much more weight than stock one.

ok got the measurements for you

Front:

Spring has the numbers 01-560
measures 13 1/4" from axle mount to the base of the top mount. My tape is to big to measure in between the spring and the top of the inside mount (guesstimate about another 1/2" though.

Rear:

Spring has the numbers 01-561
measures a tad over 13" from the top of the bottom mount to the top of the top mount (again tape was bent at a weird angle so I couldn't get in to close).


Hope that helps you out.

Specs in my sig of the parts I currently have installed (for weight comparison)

Pic of mine, guess if I had a heavy frt bumper and a winch it would drop my frt to be more in line with the measurements of the previous post

Thanks guys. Mine is carring some weight but, I didn't think it was that much that I should be over an inch lower. Hard top or soft tops on when measuring?

Anyone else out there... ??? I thought a bunch of guys were running the superlift kit.
