    i have a 2018 2wd tacoma sr. i want to level the front with the back. nothing expensive since i only daily drive it and no off road. i have only changed the stock tires to 265 ko2. i recently bought a pair of rough country 2 inch leveling kit but i have not installed it yet because i keep reading in forums about a nose high, which i dont want. i just want it leveled. any suggestions/ideas?

    Welcome to TacomaWorld!

    You can measure the height of the front and back and see how much higher the front needs to be to achieve level and go from there. That's where I would start.

    Put some weight in the back instead, it will handle better.
