4runner Front Lift

Hey y'all, I'm leveling my 4runner this month and wondering if I should get a 2-inch front lift or a 2.5-inch front lift. What are the benefits of each lift? I'm leaning towards the 2-inch one so it won't look as squatted. Thank you.

 

I think 1 in is the difference to level. (I could be wrong)

Eg -

when I do 3in front and 2in rear my SR5 looked level.
when I did 2.5in front and 1.5in rear my Limited looked level.
when I added 0.5in to the factory 1in on my TRD Pro with zero lift in rear the front looks very slightly high, may be its just my eyes.​

 

take base measurements on your truck and go from there.

measure from the center of the wheel to the fender

 

That's too obvious and way more work then using the search function.

 

The wheel opening heights on the front and back are different. The back is higher so it makes the 4R look like it has a significant rake. Put a digital level on the frame to check. On my ORP if I get the wheel openings the same height, the frame would have a reverse rake.
