Pre runner 3in lift

I have a 2002 tacoma 4door pre runner. I want to put a 3 in lift on it to fit some 32x11.50. I have found a lot of the front strut caps but how high should i lift the rear to make it level?

I would measure the vehicle as is now. The way to measure so the tire size doesn't influence the measurement is... measure form the center of the hub to the wheel lip. Write this measurement down and save it, I wish I did.

From these measurements decide how much you want the front up, how much rake you want, and that will decide the rear lift.

Easiest way is to buy a kit with everything designed to work together.

I agree, that's what I did when I lifted my 08 Prerunner.
