Just looked it up in the manual, it's actually only 120lbs. Lame...
Thats BS. Tons of aftermarket racks (Rhino, Frontrunner etc) running way heavier loads without issue.

I have C59-327s and I think I'm going to step down on coils. My truck has the gobi rack, steel off road bumpers fr and rr (no swing out in the back), rock sliders. It measures 24.25" - 24.5" fender to hub, full gas empty cabin.

Last camping trip - I had a 10x10 tailgate tent, 80qt fridge filled with food, lawn chairs, steel hitch basket (probably weighs 50+lbs) with inverter generator and charcoal pit, inside cabin was filled to the brim - sleeping bag, tent, bunch of other items bc my gf over packs. I still had a slight rake on my rig.

I drive 95% of the time on road and I just dont like the rake the 327s give me, I hope this helps as you are stepping up even higher than I am.

That's good info. That puts you at about 2.25-2.5" of rear lift.

That's about the same hub to fender that I have on my 4runner with the 325's, but I don't have a rear bumper or any roof rack weight.

What's your front hub to fender out of curiosity?

Good info. I like the rake, but more importantly, how did it drive on your normal daily driving when the cab was empty?
I have sliders and a roof rack with occasional RTT. I’m in between the 325 & 327. The last thing I want is a jarring uncomfortable ride when I don’t have any weight.
