Nice looking Jeep. I really like those front fender flares
Thanks ! I’m actually looking to see if someone will trade for something smaller.
I actually needed pointers, tips on anything that can be seen in suspension that might need upgrade. New to the off road / Jeep thing. Thanks

Thank you! How do I know what height lift I have so I can buy correct ones?

You will need to know full compression and full articulation to get the safest measurement.
This way the shock is not the limiting factor.
Current shock length
The distance from the bump stop to the frame.
Then the full articulation. To do this you disconnect the front sway bar and lift the jeep by the frame for full droop. If you plan on extreme off road you want to force full articulation.
Any chance PO knows the lift or PN of the shocks?
You could call rancho, OME or bilstein to help you out. All of those are good lift and shock mfg

When articulating make sure the brake line/hose is not limiting droop. Many people add lifts and do not change/lengthen the brake hose cause they only road drive. But when off-roading or a few good bumps the line gives.
The dismounted hard brake line and stock looking rubber hose is what drew my attention.The brake line may be an RE extension. It not being mounted bothers me.
A bent/pinched line is just as bad as a broken one.
