Thats wayyy over priced! There is a dealership that sells lifted jku's online (texas) and they go for less than that new.

The jeep looks grea man! As far as it being level it's hard to tell from that shot you posted, but don't let the different shaped fenders fool ya. Park it on level groudn a put a line level in the door jam. As for amount of lift it looks like 4"s with high clearance fenders. If you'll pm me the shock number off the front or rear I can get you a for sure answer. The number is scribed into the cylinder and will start with a 6. Sweet Ride!

Measure your control arms lengths. Center hole to center hole on your front lowers and uppers. Also if it is a 6" kit there is no way the stock driveshafts would have worked. You still have stocke drive shafts it's 99% a 4" kit.
Thanks man! Im really loving it. I appreciate the compliments. It makes me feel better about my purchases! haha MPG's not so good, but if you enjoy something you'll do what it takes. I do really think its a inch or so off in reality, but it looks great as it sits. It turns heads everywhere. Ill try and go out in a minute and get that part#. Actually, I just checked and I dont see one. THe guy had the shocks painted to match the color of the jeep. I cannot see anything thats scribed into them, but they look identical to the 2.2s.

roger that! I believe its the stock shaft. The front still had the little rubber boot where it attaches to the transfer case.
