If anyone is thinking of this setup...I recommend just do it. You will be happy with it. If you have any questions just ask. I dont have KDSS so mine was super easy to do. Think it took 2 hrs max if that.
You just used the 1" Cornfed spacer up front and that was all? I want to get rid of the nose-down look on the wife's '16 SR5.

@sbronemann That is correct just the 1" spacer in the front and did exactly as advertised no longer the nose down look and great level view from the drive seat. Wife was even impressed with it.

I emailed David @Cornfed and going back and forth with him-I think I decided to do the 2.5"/1" combo. I figure if I'm going to have to take it all apart, why not go a bit bigger right? My brother is going to do it for me and I'll barter some lawn-mowing with him for the labor. Sounds like a win/win!

I did a 1.5 inch spacer lift in front and it did not quite level out the truck.

David said there would be a very slight rake with the 2.5"/1" combo. But I do pull a utility trailer with lawn-mowing equipment regularly so it's not a big deal. Just don't want it to be nose-up like some I have seen(more in trucks though).

Put the 1" (1/2") on the front about 6 months ago and very happy. No need to compress spring. Use the bolts provided with the kit and remove the sway bar out of the way and your good to go. Make sure you get a front end alignment after install.

I went with the 1" lift up front mostly to improve the rake from the factory on our 16' LE. We do go off-road for camping and nothing too major and have had no issues. We'll eventually do something more when the factory suspension shows signs of wear but we've been happy so far. We have 265 70/17 Nitto Terra Grappler G2s on TRD wheels and there is some slight rubbing in reverse at full lock.

I'm surprised that rubs. I have the G2 Terragrappler's on our stock SR5 with no rubbing and no level kit yet. If I read that right-you don't have to take the struts apart to put the level spacers in? I was under the impression that you had to take the springs out and separate them from the shocks to put the spacers in?? Correct me if I'm wrong

You definitely have to take the struts apart as these trucks have heavy duty suspensions and there is no way around it. Also you need to remove the sway bar because it will be in your way.

Sorry to revive an old thread.....but im a little confused. Does the Cornfed 1 inch spacer provide 1 inch of lift after install or is the spacer itself 1inch thick and will yield a 0.5inch lift?

Also did the OP install a front spacer lift and a custom spacer in the rear?

The spacer is .5" thick and will net you 1.0" lift.

I know I have seen it here before, but does anyone have a copy of the instructions on how to install the one inch front spacer that they send you? Mine goes in Wednesday and want to give the shop the instructions!

Looks good! Mr. Cornfed came to my house in NC and installed a 2/1 lift in my garage. Super nice guy to deal with.

Don't mean to revive this old thread but no sense in starting a new one... I just had the Cornfed leveling spacers installed by my local shop while getting some other work done. Love it! The truck looks miles better to me. The kit was $34 shipped directly from Cornfed and the shop charged $160 for the installation including alignment.
