    Toytec has a 1/2" spacer kit for levelling off the front end. I put it in, my truck looks perfect level, I got everything I wanted from it. And I needed it because I put 275/70R17 KO2's on.

    I did the motofab 3/2 leveling kit with 285/75/16 K02's on my stock OR wheels and love it. Rides like stock and only rubs at full lock, in reverse.

    Thanks man. Hard to tell in the pic, does it sit level?

    I was going to go 3" with 285's but it's over kill for what I use the truck for. So this looks good and is practical for my needs.

    Nice truck man!!

    Yep.. perfectly level. When I wash the truck on my flat driveway.. the water doesn't flow any direction in the bed. thats how you knows its level!

    285's is overkill, especially for this engine since the HP is really high in the RPM range. 285's on my 4.0 06 was fine.

    Thanks!!

    incoming ...
    I was looking to get a leveling kit 2.5/1 for my 17' TRD sport, but since I have read a couple of comment here, maybe I would be better with the Bilsten 5100 with stock spring or with the OME springs. I'm a beginner with lift kit and all this stuff, I'm not doing big off road but I'm doing around 18-19k miles/year so I need something that still comfortable on the road ! By the way I'm lookin' to put 285-70-17 tires too.

    So what you guys would choose ?
