Is this stock or a block lift?

    I changed my oil for the first time on a new to me 2017 Tundra OR package 4x4. First thing I noticed was there were spacers on the skid plate which reminded me of my buddies 4runner lift install but I don’t have a spacer lift on the front just the stock Yellow Bilsteins. That got me thinking to look at the rear axle and I saw this. I don’t think that’s stock but what size block is that? 67CEE3F6-19E7-4332-BC7A-58A760372D11.jpgBE44A4EB-7AA4-4602-9D2F-DBA29DAFC1DF.jpg

    Haha noted so stock would have been straight to the axel and the size of this block would be all lift. Which means I’m running stock shocks well past their height.

    Yes. Without a travel limit strap those shocks won't be long for this world if you actually get it off-road. Might be OK for street driving if you don't catch air over speed bumps.

    Lots of shenanigans.
    Sounds like an excuse to completely redo your suspension :monocle:

    Haha Completely agree! I’ll have to compile a lengthy dissertation to convince the wife this is in the best interest of the family.

    You have to have something up front. Otherwise you have a 4 inch rake, the rear would be demonstrably higher

    I have thought my rear was higher than other tundras I’ve seen but nothing like 3 inches higherCC27EFEE-B5D5-47C8-BB48-C29D3D9B71DB.jpg31915F26-8158-470E-B37A-DEB7776C700D.jpgF43576BA-A180-4E04-AD44-8B31E4A1AEE9.jpg

    Looks like your spring lost all it's arch, which is probably compensating for that block size.
