    What brand leveling kit will actually get me close to level. I would like a very small amount of rake but not a must. Pics would be great.

    You’ve got the cheapest options which are a spacer (not recommended).

    Next would be like a Bilstein 5100 which is basically a little nicer front shock with pre determined adjustable perch notches, you reuse your stock spring with this.

    From there you have a Bilstein 6112, that’s much beefier and gives you a new spring as well.

    Then lastly, you’ve got a few brands with threaded bodies for fine tuning your height. For the most part these are the most expensive but also the highest quality materials and wonderful ride.

    I had 5100s and then 6112 on my Tacoma. They were nice. When I got my Tundra, nothing was available for lifting the truck other then the Eibach kit (re branded 5100). The ride was like a 3/4 ton pickup. I have Kings now and am never looking back. Night and day difference. I’m only lifted about 2.25” and it sits pretty level.

    Thanks for the input.
    Ran Eibach as well. No more. Truck has Bilstein from the factory.
    Had Dobinson as well and held up great but what a ride.
    Starting a new overland build so looking for a level without breaking the bank
    No need for King for me. Way over what I need. I'm not racing the truck.

    'Level the truck' and 'overland build' are not the same thing

    And if you have no budget...BP51 or 81xx series would be my choice.

    Also, "no budget" and "without breaking the bank" contradict each other.

    @OP
    Figure out that your budget is. What you want it for. Research on your own. Come back and ask for some narrowed down opinions.

    Looks like the BP51 only goes to the 21 model year.
    Didn't look a lot but it wasn't available first couple of sites.

    You really don't have to do anything to a suspension to do a Overland build.

    it might not be out for the 22+ yet, didn't check first cause I don't have a 3rd gen

    i mean more like adding significant extra weight (bumpers, winch, RTT, decked drawers, etc) in relation to springs
