    Hello all i recently purchased a 2020 4runner TRD Offroad Premium with the Ironman Foam Pro Cell shocks already installed. Im looking to get my 4runner Leveled due to it having a rake to it. Does anyone have any info on how many threads or turns does it take to get it leveled. Thank you

    Theres no good answer here. Who ever installed them put them at a unique height.

    As far as I know youre going to need a spring compressor to adjust the height which requires removal of the coilover. You end up guessing and checking on one side until you have jt dialed in so you can hopefully just do it once on the other side.

    Start with measuring the front and rear, compare to stock measurements(20" front 22" rear i believe is the stock average) center of hub to fender.

    You dont want to add to much front lift(over 3") without uca. It may be more beneficial and cost effective to change rear springs.

    The motion ratio is roughly 5:3. Start by measuring your existing hub-to-fender heights as hossler said, to determine how much you need to raise the front. Beware there will differences left and right due to uneven weight distribution.

    To raise the front end 1", you'd adjust the spring collar up 0.6".

    Is that pic your 4runner currently? It already looks leveled.

    It’s a pain to dial in the coil overs exactly how you want, if it’s close enough, leave it be.

    Lots of great points throughout this thread.

    Put a bubble level on the sliders/ running boards. Going off of the wheel well gaps may lead you down the wrong path since the rear arch is a bit higher than the front. Use the frame or sliders to determine if it's truly level.
    To me, it looks level already. I wouldn't lift the front any more...
