    I would stay at 2.5, or under. To many problems come up at over 2.5" if you read through post here.

    I would not go over 2” with Toyota IFS. With 3”+ lifts, it leaves you with pretty much no downtravel and your CV angles would be pretty bad.

    few things here and there.
    I am running a 2.5 setup. 5100’s with Eibach Pro Springs, and an OME AAL. I dig it.

    As others have said, just be mindful of your CV Geo 3+. 2.5 is a sweet spot for me, personally. I have plenty of down travel, and my CV’s are sitting perfect. I do have aftermarket UCA’s tho. Something else to keep in mind if you are trying to go bigger than 2-3”.

    Yeah after I switched to king with a 2.7 lift from 2.2, I started to hear high pitch squeaking noises coming under the front.

    I ran Fox's on my 2012 with no problems. I just installed the Rough Country 3.5
    on my 2021 and don't regret it. $1200 dollars and no problems at all. Can't get
    much better than $1200 bucks for a 3 inch lift. :benchpress:
