I bought this KJ (2006 Renegade) in the fall of 2010. It already has a lift installed on it. I have an idea (spacer) but wanted to ask the experts.

Pictures of front and rear suspension would help to see what you have

Also measure from the middle of the wheel to bottom of the flare, that will tell us how much lift you have with whatever lift you have

Can you post some bigger ones?

From what I can make out, the rear are Daystar pucks.

Agree with Tony
looks like a daystar from what I can see from the pictures
Now from the measurements looks as though you have about an inch to inch and a half of lift is all. What that means is the springs have sagged so much that you are not getting the full benefit from the spacer lift anymore.
Time to go full spring lift with new shocks front and rear
Bet your ride and handling will be 100 times better

Not sure how to enlarge the pictures. Anyways ,I thought a spacer lift was on there. Will have to pick up some more cans along the road to pay for a full spring lift. Thanks to all for the info.

I'll make sure that all we drink is out of cans at the next Meet and Greet up here. The week following I'll be down that way and I'll scatter them along the road for ya!
