Just had a Rock Krawler 3.5in lift installed on my 4xe. Rear end is much lower than the front end- almost an inch. Looks like it's going to blast off. Any ideas what the issues may be?

You said "installed" so assuming you had someone else do the work?

1) Any decent shop would never have let that off the property
2) I would not have taken delivery or paid until that was corrected.

Likely wrong springs in the rear.

Put a winch and heavy steel bumper on it, I have to opposite problem after my lift. Planning to put some 1" Teraflex spacers in to correct it.

also might be due to the extra battery weight in the 4xe....the batteries are apparently insanely heavy....so many lifts stipulate whether they are for th 4xe's or not.

If the shop made an error on the install correcting it is on them. If it was wrong parts the labor to correct it will be on the jeep owner. If it was wrong parts that was sent due to a mistake from the company that the owner got the parts from that would be between the jeep owner and the company. If the shop provided the parts they are responsible to make it right.

Thanks for all the replies. Double checked the spring numbers and all is in the right place.
Rock Krawler is stating that spare tire may be heavy and possibly weighing down. No way a 3.5 inch lift wouldn't be expected to handle the weight of a 37in spare - these aren't even mud tires.
