I have ordered a Rubicon Express Long Arm 5.5" from my 04 Rubi to be installed next week. I have been hearing that the lift, when finished, is much higher than 5.5". I realize that some settling will occur, but I have been told that I should expect 7"??? Anyone out there have this lift on there TJ?

i run the RE long arm with 4.5 and 35 mt/r's. when i first put the lift on the net height was about 5"
after break in its sitting right about 4.5 or just over.
here are some pics the green tj is the 4.5 lift.
the black tj has the RE 5.5 long arm lift. with the same 35" tires.

Very nice. I may change to the 4.5" springs after this years ride.
