My 19 JLUR has the 4.5" Metalcloak Gamechanger and 40x13.5 Milestar Patagonias. It sits about 81-81.5" tall at the highest point of the hardtop.

Different brands of lifts will net different actual height increases, because some are designed to support more weight before sagging below the advertised height. My previous 3.5" Metalcloak springs netted about 4.5", and the Jeep sat pretty damn level. Their 4.5" springs netted 5.5" up front and 6" out back, giving a slight rake.

Here's some measurements of the front 4.5" springs, taken from the top of the axle tube to the outer lip of the upper spring bucket. It's the most accurate way of gaging actual ride height increase before and after a lift is installed. Jeep is on level ground.

If it helps, I am running MC 4.5 and Nitto 40s and mine fits in my garage which is 7 feet tall.

Thank you both - the pictures and the info on metalcloak was exactly what I needed - this form is great. Again thank you both.

I will update this thread by the end of the week - jeep should be done. - Hoping so at least.
