Wanted to get everyone's opinions on this. I have about a 1" of rake and love it. It lets the rear set level when it's loaded down.
Which do you guys prefer and about how much?

 

Rake = Aggressive looks.

RUMBLES' Hilux Surf:







Now THAT's a rake!

that is the sickest 3rd gen i have ever seen!!!! WOW

 

I'd say just a little bit. 1 to 2 inches.
(But no "reverse rake" like on some 4runners with sagging rear springs)

 

Approx. 1-1.5". Of forward rake.

 

Are you running the 890's in the rear, terrarunner?

 

Sure am.

 

I'm not a fan of butt-high vehicles.. Better left for the drag strip IMO

I prefer the front to be slightly above the rear.. It's more suited to offroading.

infact im lowering my rear end in a few weeks because I have a 1" rear rake and can't stand it.

 

Supposedly mine is around 1.5". But it doesn't look that much.

 

i perfer level.

our old 99 tahoe had 1inch of reverse rake.
damn that thing looked mean.

 

QSveilside,
How did you mount your spare tire on the cargo door?
Also, how does that affect opening and closing it?

Thanks

 

Rakes belong in the garden, not on Toyota's! How could anyone do that to such manly vehicles. That's enough to make a grown red neck like me cry.

Did somebody say rake?



I will be lifting my front 2" to match the rear ASAP!

 

Anybody ever seen a "mud rake"?

 

Might want to ask this guy.

I like the front just a tad higher than the rear.

 

i'm for 1-1.5 inches rake.i agree makes it sit level when loaded.

 

Like or no like. It's all personal.
