What lift/suspension am I running with here?

    This is how my truck came from the dealership (2019 DC SR5 w/TRD Offroad with a bit over 100k miles on it).
    Is the lift 4/2? Someone said to double the front measurement to get the number... Can you tell if it is readylift or some other spacer brand?

    Are the shocks/struts just the oe trd-offroad bilsteins?

    And are those just the factory bump stops?

    I'm trying to figure out what I should leave alone and what I should change up.

    Thanks!!!

    Spacer lift front and rear; pretty close to 4/2. OE Bilsteins. Timbren rear bumps I think... definitely not stock. I'd change it all, but have no idea what you should do...

    The front lift is dangerous (to the shocks) if you don't have extended bumps.

    Tires are 295/70R18's so approximately 34x11.5.
    I want it to be safe/stable on the highway and useable for hauling / towing. I don't plan on wheeling it much at all, and don't care about the lifted look, just don't want to rub the tires.

    I'll take a look if i have extended bumps up front, but I've never been a fan of spacer lifts anyways...

    Would 5100s and deleting the front spacers fit what i mention I want to be doing? would i need to drop the rear by half to not end up with a rake?

    Thanks!

    5100's on the front and rear would be a huge improvement over what you currently have.

    Contrary to popular belief, front lifts using spring preload and/or extended shocks don't keep you from rubbing. But if you are on stock wheels with those tires, your clearance is probably fine, or at most you'll need to do a very little trimming.

    If you don't want a lift, the cheap and easy solution is to ditch the front and rear spacers and go with that. The Timbrens will be nice for towing and hauling. But since you have 100k miles it's probably time for new shocks. 5100s are decent and cheap (labor will be more than parts) and you can adjust the front .8",1.6", 2.3" I think? Something like that. Those will also use your stock front springs though, so unless you can get some take-off springs for really cheap, it might be better to go with Eibach or something else.
