How can I get a 1 inch lift in the rear??

You'll be extremely happy if you get a new frame! I have one, and it's awesome. Makes working on the truck a lot easier.

 

I put the Headstrong AAL on and got 2" of lift.

 

A block will raise the body for visual affect, but do nothing for improving load capacity.

 

Did you take out the overload spring or leave it in? I believe it adds 1/4" or so.

 

I removed the overload. I'm hoping it settles at least a half inch.

 

Yota Mafia says their Eibach rear shock will raise the rear 1" is that even possible for just a rear shock to raise the rear?

 

Holy thread revival and no, shocks do not lift the rear. They only provide dampening. Lift can only be accommodated by an aal, leaf pack or block.

 

The fellas at yota Mafia got back to me and told me that not pictured or listed that there is a 1" lift block included in the kit for the rear. Anybody familiar with the Eibach Pro Truck Lift System Stage 1 it looks like a 2" / 1" kit with springs shocks and lift blocks

 

I don't know if you do any towing, but Sumo Springs have given me a pretty good lift in the rear. Maybe not quite an inch but it's another option. Easy to install

 

Gonna install mines over the weekend. The kit does not include block, only the springs, shocks, sway bar relocator and hardware. It only lifts the front at 2.5inches at the lowest setting so I'm gonna go with a 1.5-2inch AAL to the back. The sway bar relocator looks like lift blocks but they are not. Maybe that's what the shop is talking about.

 

ryan what tire are you putting on that?

 

For now I'm running 265/75/16 Hankook Dynapro atm. Eventually when I'm due for new tires I might go with pizza cutters 255/85/16.

 

OR... as I have done by adding Ride Rite Air Bags...
Amazing lifting and suspension firmness adjustability.
I have detailed both the installment and the amount of rear lift gained, at various pressures. I first installed them on my 2005 double cab which the factory poorly chose springs for (truck bottomed out on speed bumps with rear seat passengers or any truck cargo).
I then had them installed on my 2010 Tacoma (which had better springs from the factory) after a few years to gain the lift and firmness ability.

 

I won't argue with your solution as it is definitely proven! In any situation though, it is really up to how the vehicle will be utilized that will determine the optimal suspension setup.

 

AGREE!
In my case, with my 2010, I was only going to have a heavy load during long Baja trips. I did not want a stiff, hard ride for all my regular driving. I run the Ride Rites at 15 psi for daily use and increase them to 20-35 psi (max) for heavy loads. My front suspension (Bilstein 5100s) are set to the first level above stock, 0.85" lift.

Here are my measurements at different pressures, wheel well to ground:
5 psi = 36.5"
15 psi = 37.25"
20 psi = 37.75"
25 psi = 38"
35 psi = 38.5"
40 psi = 38.5"

From 5 psi (min) to 35 psi, 2 inches of body lift are achieved along with a firmer ride. Do not add more than 35-40 psi, even though the bags can hold 100 psi. You can crack an axle!
