How Much Lift

3" or 4 1/2"?

yea judgeing by those pics, looks like you might have a 4.5" lift. that rear swar bar links have been just buzzed off for flex, who ever did the lift was too lazy to unbolt the whole swar bar. you might want to do than man. just to get it out of the way, most guys chuck the rear swar bar becuase it doent do anything but limit your flex. now the front sway bar you will nedd. without it your front end will be EVERYWHERE on the road. nice lookin' rig man.

Since you still have the stock flares on the fenders you can use those as a reference point. Measure the distance from the center of the wheel hub to the bottom edge of the flare. Stock distance is 17 inches. Subtract that from your measurement and that is how much lift you have.
