    Middle will leave you with a very slight rake which is ideal IMO.

    Be sure to search for the Toyota FM for instructions on installing these. The YouTube wanna be videos are all over the place and will have you busting things apart that are not necessary....loosen the cams, drop the lower arm to the floor and install.

    18’ TRD CM leveled with 295/70 Ridge Grapplers
    Top setting leveled mine perfectly which was what I was after. Ride is a little stiffer than OE setup but I did not want spacers thus top setting for me.
