    Hey all, I recently got a Dobinsons suspension lift kit, with the following parts

    Front Springs:
    • C59-352 – 2.0” lift with heavy load (110-240lbs) front end
      • 2.4” lift with stock front end
    Front Shocks:

    Rear Leaf Springs:

    • L59-110-R – 2.1” lift light / medium load
    Resr shocks
    The big issue is, the more I look for similar builds on the internet with a similar tire and 2” lift setup (running 265/70/17), my setup seems not lifted to me for some reason, which I find really strange, as it should be a 2.4” lift in the front, and a 2.1” lift on the back. I’m wondering if you guys can help me figure this out, does it look lifted? If not, why do you think that is?? since I got everything as specificed

    Current pics with the supposed 2.4” lift:

    Stand next to a stock height Tacoma and you’ll immediately see it.

    If you need to quantify it, measure from the center of the hub to the fender

    Stock 3rd gen are like 21” in the front and about 22” in the rear. They do vary a bit even for stock height

    No before and after measurements?

    If you don't have surveyor eyes, it's the right way to know.

    I measured it the way you said and it turned out to be 21” front and 22” on the back, basically same as stock. this just doesn’t make sense to me :(

    It should be 23” on the front and 24” on the back…

    idk what to do or what might be going on

    Did you install the lift yourself?? Maybe you should have.
