Front lift springs with a 1" spacer?

So I installed tundra TRD coils up front fj80 springs in back. Have one hell of a rake. 1'' spacers should help. Any thoughts? Should give me a total of 4'' up front. Oh yeah, I did the sonoran diff drop and trac bar.

TRD coils dont offer 3" of lift, at best they are 2.5", but if you bought them used your are looking at 2-2.25", so with a 1" spacer you should be around 3-3.5, and thats the max amount of lift you can go with the stock IFS. your probably gonna burn though CV boots pretty fast at that amount of lift.
 
I agree your asking for trouble lifting the front end that much... I'd take the 1" spacers out and maybe look at the 1/4" spacers that ToyTec sells... That's good for about 1/2" at the wheels
 
Like Kid said, you don't want to go above 3 inches of lift. Otherwise you are going to burn through CV boots and won't have any droop travel left. That will cause stuff to break.

What is the measurement from the center of the wheel straight up to the fender lip?
 
So what should I do?

Just drive it for awhile. Those coils should settle down a little. I bet you drop a good 1/2" after a month. I love having a little rake on my truck. Looks so much better than a sagging rear end or even if it is level once you add a little weight you start to sag. Also rear rake helps out a lot on the trail when going over large rocks!
