    I had just installed the king 2.5 suspension kit for my 2019 dclb with the toyotec 3 leaf add a leaf in the rear and after raising the coilovers in the front (I did 10 turns on passenger and 12.5 on drivers side for the lean) but my driver side still sits lower and my add a leafs gave me almost a 3 inch lift in the back so I’m stuck on what to do to make this thing sit even any help?

    These are my measurements from flat ground to bottom of fender
    Front driver-37”
    Front pass-38”
    Back driver-39.5”
    Back pass-40”

    If leveling it is your goal, it would probably be better to remove the overload leaf from the rear (both sides) to bring the rear down some, then adjust the front accordingly. If you keep raising the front to match the rear you're going to kill your ride quality. In my experience and from what I read on here, with Kings they are usually feel best in the 0" - 2" lift range out of the box.
    You can customize them of course to achieve other things but that's another convo.

    I did already take the overload spring out but I’m not sure if I should remove of of the leafs from the progressive 3 leaf add a leaf to see if it’ll bring it down at all? Thanks

    In that case I would give it some time and see if they settle, they should. I would assume they'd settle at least a half an inch over the next few days or week.
