Lift & leveling kit options

That looks like a tophat lift. I'm specifically looking for a preload lift which Readylift makes but for 2.5" upfront.
That's correct... I see where you said pre-load, but you'd have to sweet talk RL or Westcott (or similar) to see if they would sell you just the collar. I thought about machining down Wescott's collar because I like the under spring placement better than RL on top. Not sure it matters, but none-the-less ended up with Dobinsons.
It's hard for me to understand this desire to level the truck because as soon as you load some stuff in the cargo area the rear will sag and you will feel like you are on a speedboat with a view of the sky instead of the road... Much better to have a bit of rake towards the front in my opinion.
Mine sits dead level now with my homemade platform, recovery gear, etc in the back. I wouldn’t mind lifting both front and rear about 1-1/2” or so. Haven’t seen anything to accomplish this.
I have a similar sentiment.
Can anyone (perhaps you winnrider if you've gone down this rabbit hole) provide best lift/level kits + upsize tires for someone who cares more about looks than function (90%city driving)?
shock setups look sexier than lift spacers bro. With the wheel well gap u can’t avoid looking at the suspension package. It’s like like wearing gray sweat pants in the winter
I settled on Ko2s 33s (275/60/20) no lift/spacers. I’m in the woods every week and no issues. When I upgrade it will be full on suspension. The spacer lifts look pretty labor intensive for no perceivable difference in stance. Now if I was a rock crawler, totally different approach. Put some chunky shoes on that girl and you will be a ok. Did 400 miles to Florida and it rides like a town car.
I want to go this exact route, KO2s at 275/60/20. So you don’t get any rub at all with stock suspension/no lift/no spacers? Thanks!
None. At all.

I think this lift kit may work. It looks like there’s a top spacer and also a preload spacer. I think you can just use the preload part. I’m thinking about it … just haven’t heard of anyone using the kit.
I had noticed this system and have reached out to Peak to see if they will sell me a set of pre-load spring seats. Will advise after the weekend2024+ Toyota Landcruiser 2 Piece Collar Lift - Peak Suspension

I have the full kit. I liked the idea of not having just a preload collar. They were very responsive to emails too. They claim to have done all of their testing. My question was about added front bumpstop and they said it wasn't needed. Not sure I believe that with a top hat spacer. There is also a little contact between the upper control arm and strut on both sides at full droop but just barely. I think any top hat spacer will have that. Ride is great. No change from stock (I would have been ok with a slightly stiffer front end but seems the same).2024+ Toyota Landcruiser 2 Piece Collar Lift - Peak Suspension

This looks about perfect!
What all have you done exactly? The Peak 2.25" 2-piece collar lift? Only $238.00!!
How much was it to have that installed? And what size tires and offset do you have?
Really looks good -
It’s the 2 piece front and 1” rear puck. I installed it myself. I’ve done a lot of lifts so it was pretty easy. Wheels are methods 17” +35 with Toyo at3 35x11.5x17. It still has some rake. I ended up with 1.5-1.75” in the front and 1” in the rear. Very similar to what people report with westscott. The two piece front and leaving the rear stock would probably be close to level but I’ll have the back loaded and tow a small camper, so I wanted some rake. Very happy with the setup for now!
