    I'm planning to just do a 2.25" leveling in ft of 2015 TRD OR DBSB....nothing to the back.

    does it visually and actually make the truck higher? does anybody have pics.

    2.25" higher. And yes, it's noticeably taller over a stock height truck.

    Look at the 2nd page of the Baja link in my sig. That is 2" in the front compared to a stock truck. Very noticeable difference when compared side by side.

    2.25" will not level it. It will sit nose-high, and will get worse if you haul or tow anything.

    I don't know about his truck. But, when I had 5100's, I had them set at 1.75 with stock coils. What does that give you? 2" maybe. I was a little nose high. Like an 1/8". You had to measure it to tell, but still nose high. 2.25" on MY truck would've been just a little worse.

    And, putting anything moderately substantial in these trucks with the wimpy stock leafs will leave you nose high for certain. lift or no! :D
