    I drive a 2017 limited tundra what would be a good shock to lift it with some rear shocks too. I was looking at Bilstein but I’m new to lifting I don’t want a whole life kit just better riding suspension with a little lift. I’m not looking for anything over 2 inches. More or less like leveling springs but I also want it to ride really good.

    At a minimum get Bilstein 5100 shocks to level the front and you can leave the rear stock. If the your budget allows get the Bilstein 6112 coilovers for the front and the 5160 shocks for the rear. If you ever haul anything In the bed then I would recommend lifting the rear about 1” regardless of what option you choose

    Your opinion on the best way to raise the rear for hauling. I have 5100's all around and it sits pretty level. Bu when I put my 2 bikes in the back.....not so much.

    Look at the Falcon tow/haul setup. Sounds right up your alley.

    No problem. Just get a set of Bilstein 5100 shocks and you’ll be more than happy!
