Default How to measure lift?

I have aftermarket suspension gear on my 95 XJ which came on the Jeep when i bought it. I'm wondering how I can check it to determine whether there is any lift at all?

Cheers,

TheOoz

I measured 18" on the front and 17" at the rear. I have King Springs on the front, and seems to be original springs at the rear with Koni dampers. Mmmmm.

It would have been higher than that but true to Jeep form it would have sagged especially in the rear...
Did you measure both sides?
