The only time you will have reverse rake with this lift is if you have a lot of weight in the back. I had mine full of camping gear this summer (roughly 300 lbs) and the reverse rake was pretty minor.
I was having the same concerns you were before buying this kit but you will be happy with...
I've had this kit installed for 6k miles and finally took it for some intermediate wheeling a few weeks ago. I had the Runner on 3 wheels a few times and the suspension handled it perfectly with zero rubbing on the fender or body with my Falken 285's.
Note: My front fender liners are pushed...
I paid $675 for install, alignment and mounting/balancing new tires.
I also ended up paying them to push in the fender liner... (which i still don't think was necessary)
FYI I did the full kit and set on the bottom clip setting and I’m sitting at a touch over 22” up front. I know a few others have mentioned they didn’t get the full 2.75” lift up front.
Thanks! The shop pushed the fender liner forward and removed the front mud flaps prior to install so I don’t know if it was necessary. No rub on the body mount at full lock on the street... I guess it’s possible there will be a little at full lock when not on a flat surface. (Running stock UCAs)
Lift installed today on my 2018 SR5 with Method Mesh wheels and Falken P285's. Stance is perfect and like the previous reviews have mentioned - a significant improvement over stock ride/handling.
