    I bought a 2015 tundra back in the fall and haven’t done much with it. It has 20 “ wheels with 33 inch tires and appears to have a leveling kit. I did however purchase it from a Toyota dealership and I do not have any information about what was done to the suspension.

    Any idea of what’s on my tundra?

    Looks like everything is stock except for a large strut spacer lift, which is easy to remove and usually makes the ride pretty rough.

    Can I just measure the spacer? Looks like a 3 inch?

    I am thinking about possibly doing a fox coil over ( or another brand ) and have done some searches here on them but I would like to keep the same height of the truck. What are your suggestions ? Thanks

    I'm running a first gen so I don't know that truck, but I would highly recommend Fox. I think their coilovers will get you close to the height or at least as close as anyone. You could check King as well. I think the resi adjustable versions are worth it if you are going to run it off street. A little bit of rake is nice if you ever put anything in/on the bed.

    Almost any actually suspension lift that you switch to is going to ride much nicer than the spacer lift.

    More budget friendly would be Bilstein 6112’s up front.

    Fox or King more expensive obviously but great quality.

    Bilstein has circlip height adjustments whereas the King or Fox has a little bit more fine tuning in height with its spring collar

    Fox or King are pretty tunable and they’re rebuildable which is great

    Regardless, you’ll feel a night and day different over the spacers!

    The spacers are not a 1 to 1 ratio. A 2 inch spacer will give you close to 3 inches in the front. That particular spacer looks like the ReadyLift and should be 2 inches thick. Are there any blocks in the rear?

    From what I can tell, it doesn't look like there are any blocks in the rear. It would look like this under the leaf spring.

    I agree, no blocks. This should be easy.
