    Dakar’s will settle. You may get 2.75 at first but they will settle lower. Especially with more weight in the rear.

    Ok great. I want it pretty level maybe .5 higher in the back. Think that will be about right?

    Ok so I’m doing the right thing with the spacers. Now I just need to see what people had with 3 inch lift and put Dakar medium duty and what the rake was like

    Ah that's dependent on what he puts in the back. There's people that don't run a topper or anything in the bed that stayed at 3"

    Edit: he's doing the medium springs. You right haha

    So with 3 inches up front and 2.75 lift will be atleast 1.5 inches of rake I would think?

    Don’t focus on the numbers they list, they are approximate. For the front on Tacoma’s 23” hub to fender is about 3” lift. For the rear it’s 24” hub to fender for 2” lift. Dakar’s should put you at about 24.5 before they sag so you should have about an inch of rake once they do.

    Believe me I know. There's a few dickheads on here that think their hot shit when people come to ask questions. You should see when someone ask about a 6" lift all hell breaks loose and that's when the hounds come out

    Dude I’m gonna ask... Hahahaha. I’ve been working on cars since I was little and I’m an auto glass tech now. And been to school for auto trades and worked in a body shop for years I’m not some idiot. I get that it’s annoying to answer the same questions. But sometimes it’s easier to strike a convo in a new thread than digging through tons of misinformation.
