    2006 Tacoma regular cab 4x4. Which setting will make it sit level. Rather have front lower than it higher.

    I have a 2011 Dbl cab short bed Offroad with the stock front and stock rear 3 leaf rear springs. Set the front at 1.75 and is level to maybe a very slight nose high. Add a little weight to bed and then it does show nose high. I found bringing the front up will actually raise the rear slightly. You will need to also consider what rear springs you have and wether you want to change its load capacity. What size tires do you want run?

    Stock 245/76/16. I have the bilsteins at 2.5 right now and replaced the leafs and added one in a while back but I drive it too much that I want to put it back down to where to initially was. But have the front at less of a rake. Probably .85 will be fine and look good once I removed the added leaf and drop the front.

    .85 will get you close to level.
    1.75 will put your front higher then the rear.

    1.75 was way high on my access cab, like 2.5" of lift. I think .85" setting will still be high on a regular cab.
