    hi I have fox suspension and just put on new wheels and tires. old set up was a 285/70/17 and now have 295/75/16. my question is can i lower the back 1inch to get i guess that "baja" truck stance were it sits lower in the rear? front coils are maxed out and with the old tires i had that stance but now it looks level.

    thanks

    If you are 2wd / Prerunner get 4” lift spindles, you can’t really go any lower in the rear.
    Lift spindles and adjust he coilovers to the desired amount of lean

    Or, go SUA and buy a custom leaf pack that fits factory hangers, and lowers the truck.

    Idk how it could be level if you have your coil overs maxed out in the front and stock leaf springs in the back. You must have a add-a-leaf. If you take that out it will lower it an inch or so.

    removing the overload (small one on the bottom of the stack) should drop the rear about 3/4 of an inch. don't expect to haul much after the fact though.
