OE 2wd SR5 rear ride height measurement?

I just put on a Air Lift 1000 kit on my 2016 2wd SR5 and I think it lifted the rear a bit. The rear suspension is stock and so are the wheels and tires. I didn't bother to measure before the install because the Airlift kit I had on my old 4th gen (the same kit) did not lift it at all.

My rear fender height from the ground to the fender lip is 36 5/16" to 36 and 3/8". That is measured from center of the wheel. This is after 2 days being installed, and driving it around a bit.

Can someone with a stock suspension SR5 with stock wheels and tires take a rear fender height measurement and sanity check me?

I used the Airlift 60809 kit, and I cut off the 3 sections of the OE bump stop. The ride is unchanged, I just think it is a little higher now.

And yes I only have 5 PSI of air in the bags.

Mine was 35" ground to fender front, and 36.5 ground to fender rear.
But I have noticed that different model are different heights from the factory.

So measurements will vary!

Thank you.

I agree with that. I have the 3rd row as well, so it sounds like I am close in the rear based on your measurements. I don't think the rears of the 4wd SR5 is different than the 2wd SR5 though. I have a 1 inch front lift spacer already. I'm planning on leaving the suspension alone other than that. Perhaps 5100s down the road.

I wanted to figure this out before I got my wheels and tires installed.

How much air are you running in the bags? They didn't raise mine at all with the minimum 5psi. When I cranked them up to the max, it will raise the rear 1" or so. Just empty all of the air out of them and see if it changes anything.
