    Looking to do a 3.5” front 2” rear lift and level. Has anyone done this and how is the ride? Also pictures would be helpful. Thank you!

    Personally, I'd rethink a 3.5" front. That will probably give you negative rake. Also, if you go that high with IFS, you will probably lose most (if not all) of your downtravel. I have IMS and love them - I'm around 2.5" front and 2" rear.20231020_121031.jpg

    I have a whole album of different lift heights and photos here:
    https://exitoffroad.com/gallery/gallery-toyota-5th-gen-4runner-2010-2020/

    2.5/1" is a more ideal lift height to maintain down travel up front and not overlift it, but you can go with the max of 3.5" if you want that look.
