    I just lifted my 2015 Toyota Tacoma trd off road 6 inches and put 35 inch toyo open country at2's on it with 18 inch d515 fuel pump rims. Everything went well with the lift but when i got finished i noticed that the rear end of the truck was lower then the front kinda like a "Cali lift" which im not a huge fan of.... has anyone else had this problem or does anybody have any idea on how to fix it and make the front and rear even?

    What kind of lift.

    Pics would be great.

    In the end you'll need to raise the rear or lower the front.

    If the front can't be lowered.. well, raise the rear.

    Blocks are cheap and shitty.
    AALs are cheap and not as shitty.
    Full leaf pack is best, cost the most, has the best performance.

    On the positive side, with a 6" and 35s he's probably shining over traffic for the most part, no?

    I'm guessing you have non-TSB rear springs? If you had those, it would be a little higher. Other options would be to get custom springs made, AAL and lift block combination, or readily available springs such as OME combined with a small block to achieve the desired lift. Depends on your budget and what you do with your truck.

    I had the same problem when I installed my 5" RCD lift. It came with 4" blocks, but it sat a little too low in the back for my liking, even with TSB springs. I can't stand the "bro lean" look either. I ended up going with OME Dakar leaf springs with 1.5" blocks to achieve results I am happy with.

    He has the TSB leaf springs as his truck is a 2015. Post 2014 they all had the 4 leaf packs.
