I struck out with this in an introduction post, so hopoing for a response here.

I've recently bought a Rebel that has been lifted and currently running 35s. I'm trying to determine how much it's been lifted and what the possible kit may be. Initially I was told 2", but I don't think that is the case with as much clearance as I have.

I would appreciate any guidance on how and where to measure, or if someone sees something they recognize and can help me figure out what kit I have.

Thanks in advance for the help.

only kit really is the 4" BDS lift that lets the air still work. Otherwise people have been leveling/lifting with links I believe. Do you still have the rear bilstein stock shocks or are the the Fox shocks?

but you are still running the stock rims. The stock rims wont fit back on with the BDS lift.

He might have wheel spacers, I think that you can keep the stock rims with wheel spacers with on.

but you are still running the stock rims. The stock rims wont fit back on with the BDS lift.

Could you take a picture of the top of one of the front air bags where it connects to the upper control arm. I'm wondering if they used some kind of puck, or if its a different control arm.

Not sure about the lift kit but while your at it you might want to look into getting an wheel alignment due to the increased height

Not stock, but they aren't OEM either. I've included a picture.

Yes, thank you, picture included.

So I'm taking a shot in the dark, but from your picture it looks like you have a modified tough country 4" lift.

Thanks for hanging in there with me. It's kind of frustrating not being able to figure this out. Clearly there is new hardware on the truck, but nothing I can specifically identify. I'm happy with what I have, however it would be nice to know what the heck it is.

Part of the mystery has been solved. Looking at the rear shocks, I Googled Eastern Truck & Accessories and it turns out they are a shop in Virginia Beach where I bought the truck. Called the guys at etaoffroad and they confirmed that they are a BDS dealer, most likely put a 6" lift on it. Next time I'm in Virginia Beach I'm going to have them look at it for me. Appreciate the help from everyone that weighed in.

yeah im not sure, however it looks like a little taller then the off-road button for the air suspension maybe by two inches

Hoping they didn't mess your truck up too much.
