    Nice looking truck. I like this profile more than the 2/1. Same court as you with the rear a hair taller/higher.

    I like a little rake due to towing a boat. Trucks are suppose to have the rear end higher for loads. Some like it level, some like the rear lower. For me it's about function, not fashion.

    Take a measurement at each fender, see how level it is.

    Did that already. The rear sits 1/2 inch higher than the front. So I call that pretty much level. I can live with that.

    Think I may go with the ToyTec TTFS-Kit 1/2" Solid Steel Flat Axle Shim. Another 1/2 inch and I will be 1 full inch higher in the rear. It's basically a 1/2 inch lift block, except it bolts to the spring pack. That sounds like what I want. If I go with blocks, it will create too much rake for my liking. Plus, this will never cause any issues with vibes.

    I did front rough country spacer. Waiting on my 1” rear block. I want to regain a little rake but also be close to level. Thanks for the pics guys. I’ll post before and after rear block when they get here.

    Yeah all these trucks need is 1” up front to level them .. but all the kits are 2”.

    Toytec and headstrong make a true 1” levelling kit for the Tacoma but swap to an incongruent naming convention and call them a 1/2” spacer ... which gives 1” of lift.

    Just like the rough country spacer is 1” thick but gives 2” of lift

    I did the same just waiting for my 1” block to get here this week. Definitely love the stance of yours. Can’t wait to lift rear to make it sit like yours. Nice truck

    Did you have to cut the studs to make this front spacer fit? Any EGCS vibrations afterwards?
