Icon stage 2 rear shorter than front

That is interesting that you have 1.65 inch preload and you are getting 3.5inch lift. Also how is your rear inch higher than your front when you have rear spring that is 2 inch?

stock measurements (hub to fender):
19.5" front
22" rear
(atleast this is what mine was at)
so from front to rear there is 2.5" rake.

your new measurements you said are:
23.25" front (thats 3.75" of lift)
24" rear (guessing as i did not see one posted - assuming you get the 2" min).

your at a 3.75" lift with still a tiny bit more to go (if you want higher). Why dont you lower your fronts down some (i think 1/4" of threads is 1/2" lift?) so 2" threads - 0.25" = 1.75" threads (which youll be close to shrub1 - he might have a 0.1" to a 0.25" on you).
Im not sure how your seeing your front higher than your rear... You should be almost level (every 4runner is different however).

If you posted a picture it might help the group see and understand - by math what your saying doesnt add up.

if you dont like your front end up higher lower them. They are coilovers for a reason.

I finally got the new 3 inch icon rear spring and got it installed. It is hard to notice from the pictures, but in person it made huge difference. I can see the road little better now, my front hood does not come up as much. Also the cargo in the rear does not slight back to the door anymore(more level).
Here is some more photos
