Default Do I have a lift?

So, I bought my JKU used. I've been pondering installing a lift, but would need equipment aside from the kit itself to install. And then it got me wondering... the Jeep seems to sit a little high, so it's possible that the previous owner put in a small spacer lift. Does anyone out there know where I could measure from to determine if the Jeep is stock or has been lifted? It's got 31" tires and stock everything else except for flairs I've put on.

Thanks in advance!

A small spacer lift would be noticeable by just looking at the top of the front and rear springs. You would see a black spacer. Some like the teraflex would have the name etched into the side.or take a picture and post it. We can tell you

Thanks for the answers! I'll have a look and measure tomorrow when it's light out.

Post a picture.
If your 31's don't look lost in the wheel wells, it's probably not lifted.
