Identifying Lift Kit

[Tzurs]

Hi all,
I recently purchased a 2004 TJ Rubicon and I am trying to figure out what lift kit it have since the rear bracket for the upper control arm broke.
Here are some pictures.

Thanks,

They make welders to correct things like that.

Some long arm kit. Crap body lift. Needs a lot of love.

That is a bolt on rear truss for a bolt on long arm. The only bolt on truss I can think of is Full Traction, but I thought it used a bunch of U-bolts. This one grabs the factory sway bar mounts and the factory upper control arm mounts.

And the axle joint for the upper triangulation is like nothing I have ever seen.

I'm planning to remove and weld it if its not bent. Any reason not to go back to original body mounts if the tires clear the fenders?

Well, you cycle the suspension to find out if anything hits or the shocks bottom out. If they do you need a body lift (BMB sells a great 1.25” body lift) or you need a smaller tire size or shorter shock, whatever hits will tell you what you need to change.
