1/2" levelling spacer

This will probably seem weird to a lot of people and likely seem like a complete waste of time but I am considering adding spacers/blocks on the front to raise the front end a 1/2"...just for aesthetics. I want it close to level while still maintaining a small amount of factory rake. Planning on keeping 265/70r16 tires. Anyone have pics of this setup and also does anyone know the pros and cons of it???

Thanks in advance!

 

I have Bilstein 5100's set to next to highest lift notch. I added heavy Dakar springs to the rear which lifted the back too much and gave me too much of a rake. I added a 1/2" spacer and it's almost perfect (still a slight rake).
(I'm on 285's)

1/2" spacers are not problematic. Might stiffen the ride a touch but that's it. And 1/2" is enough to just see a difference.

Best pic I have to show it:

 

Do you think the half inch will change ride quality or wear out suspension components prematurely?

 

I want it to be very subtle

 

Absolutely not, go for it. The issues start to arise around the 2" mark.

 

These are what im thinking about buying. Definitely cheap enough and i think it'll give me the exact appearance im wanting...

 

No worries. Do it!

 

The 1/2” spacers will get you 1” in the front. They won’t ruin driveline angles or suspension.

 

Get the 1/2” spacers from Headstrong. I hate the factory rake so even if you don’t want a lift or bigger tires, I think this is a good idea.

 

I lifted the front a half inch with 6112's,cant really tell the difference. But I was looking more for a ride improvement, not lift.

 

@Taco821 I had great success with mine. Here's the thread for my spacer install. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/simple-level-success.638152/

Good luck!

 

These are all great ideas!

 

Thinking about the headstrong spacers. Wahoobie or GreyBaldTaco...either of you have any more pictures of your trucks with the 1/2 level?
