I just installed my Rusty's Off Road 2" lift. Four new springs and shocks. My stock ride height rose about 1 1/2" on the rear and about 2 1/2 on the front. (Rubicon Unlimited) This is with a full tank of gas and the stock front bumper. As soon as shrockworks ships the mid length bumper I will install that to help bring the front down a little. With the new set up the front is setting about 3/4 higher than the rear.
Here is how I installed the lift.....

Front
Look at the current set up to see how it is fitted
loosen all of the lug bolts on the front tires
Disconnect the sway bar both sides
Chuck the rear tires
Jack the front up by the frame until the wheel leaves the ground
Place jack stands under the frame and remove the jack
Remove the tires
Place your jack snug under the axle close to the wheel
Remove the shock
Once the shock is removed you can lower the axle
Be careful not to over stretch the brake lines
Remove the stock spring
Install the new spring. You may need a pry bar to ease it in
Check the seat of the spring and make sure it is set properly.
Raise the axle back up with the jack
Install the new shock
Re-install the tire
Repeat on the other side
Remove the jack stands
Re-install the sway bar links

Rear
The rear is the same as the front however you must disconnect the brake line bracket, the parking brake line bracket and the electrical grommet bracket. You have to do this on the rear to get the axle to drop enough.
