    I’ve got a 2009 DCLB TRD Sport and just got a set of Front Coilovers and Rear Struts off a 2020 TRD OR with 9k miles. Im looking to add a front spacer and rear block as well to give a little extra lift, I’m 100% Pavement so don’t flame me on the spacers please (LOL).

    My question is what size spacers and rear block should I go with, I do want to keep some rake and DO NOT want the bro lean.

    I’m thinking 1” spacer up front a 1” in the rear, does that sound about right, I’m really not sure...

    I’m currently running 265/70/17 FalkenWildpeak AT3W which I just got.

    Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks!

    If you want to add an inch up front do not put in 1” spacers. I believe 1/2” will do. Contact headstrong off-road, tell them you want 1” lift all around, and they’ll point you in the right direction.

    Thanks, I think I’m looking for a total of about 2.5”. I heard the TRD OR front coils will give me an inch themselves, is that correct?

    In theory, some seem to get very little from the 3rd gen suspension, some will see an 1”. There are other things that may need to be addressed as you go over 2”, so do your research so you know what to expect.
