    I'd like to level the front end to level the truck.

    Something like this would work??
    https://www.extremeterrain.com/mammoth-tacoma-3-in-front-leveling-kit-tt6068.html

    Now I have no idea if installing those on 2023 tacoma off road, I will need extended travel shocks?

    I saw they had 2in, 2.5in also. Not sure which one I'd need, and if I do install those, if it's going to affect the shock requiring replacement.

    thank you :)

    Did you read the article? Should help answer a lot of questions. This forum has a wealth of information if you take advantage it.

    First off why would you level it? Put some weight in the back and your ass looks like its dragging. trucks are supposed to have a rake to them. If you insist on going level then measure from center of wheel to top of wheel well/fender both front and back then decide on your spacer. 3" spacer will have you nose high.

    just so you know most people who level their trucks go back to raked position. a leveled tacoma for some reason looks like it squats back. plus soon as you put anything in the bed the truck will look weird with its nose pointed up. but hey if you need to get to the mall in style whatever floats your boat:thumbsup:

    Hey, sometimes people have different requirements. If you are going off road, or are particular about ride quality i would recommend new shocks and coil overs. Icon is great!!!
    I don’t off road anymore and look to sport cars for ride quality. Just picked up a tacoma with spacers like you were asking about and it is just fine on the road. I am wary about premature wear on components in 100 years but maybe then ill do a nice Icon system if its an issue. If it’s just to level it for the road, go for the spacers. I can measure mine if you want- let me know.

    1/2" toytec spacer with the longer studs was perfect for a 1" front lift and the truck looks leveled but has a very slight amount of rake. highly recommend.
