So this Jeep is through a dealer who doesn’t know as much about it as a owner would. It has real nice Bilstein reservoir shocks and I’d like to determine what brand lift it is but I’m not sure if that can be determined based on the pics I have. Wondering if one of you guys can help me determine what some of the other stuff is....thanks!

Thanks guys! What about the steering stabilizer? Does this stuff look like the start for a good daily street driven Jeep that also get played with on the weekends....maybe some decent trails and mild beginner rock stuff?
 
Its hard to tell on the stabilizer. If it works then its good. There is really no benefit to an expensive one. Somebody just stuck a shock boot cover on it. Personally, I would cut the boot off.
As far as its driveability its impossible to give to much of an opinion from pictures. There are just to many other things to consider. Check if it has been regeared. Inspect the steering components. Drive it and try some emergency braking. Look for signs that its been offroaded hard.
The lift and shocks specifically are a good start. There are better ones but there are also a lot worse.
I am curious as to what has been welded to the frame above the rear control arm.

Just a generalization to these specific parts is what I was wondering, not really if this specific Jeep will drive good. Sounds like they are a good start.

Regarding what’s been welded to the frame, are you referring to this picture? I believe that is a rock slider.

A better photo or two of the control arms would have been more useful for identifying the suspension lift manufacturer but from the color of the partial one I can see, I agree with the others that it looks like Rubicon Express.
