    Hi All, I installed a 2" level kit from rough country. After I installed them my truck is now roughly 1" taller in the front than the rear. Has anyone else had this issue and what can I now do to level the rear? 2017 Tacoma Sport 4x4.

    The easy answer is to get a 1 inch spacer block for the rear springs. The other answer is to remove the spacer pucks and replace your front coilovers. I took a look at their website and it seems that they use the same spacers for 05-17 Tacomas, but I thought that the 3rd gen sat a little higher from the factory.

    Will the 1" rear spacer lift the back exactly 1"? The 2" spacer seemed to have raised it a bit more than 2".

    Yes. A 1" rear spacer(block) will lift the rear exactly 1"(or extremely close to it). Front spacers are different in the way they lift since you're spacer is placed near the pivot point of the IFS so the ratio is different.
