Need more lift in fron 4x4 04 tacoma spacers?

Hi i have a *4X4" 04 tacoma and have a 1.5" spacer above the coilover. How much actual lift would this give to the truck?

When i see people saying 2.5" spacer or 3" spacer is that the actual size" of the spacer or is that the over all lift it will give the truck?

I want to lift the front of my truck higher because i have 33.2"bfg a/t tires and it rubbs when I turn.(also have a 3"wheel spacer installed) How can i go higher? I also have a 1" diff drop instaled. remember its 4x4 so im limited with the axel angles...

All your help will be appreciated! Thanks!!!

coil spacers are bad, get some new springs and struts or some adjustable coilovers to lift you up. Usually the recommended max lift is 2.5" for cv angles.

Most suggest 2-2.5" but many have gone above that and have had no problems, and some have. I am currently running a tad over 2" and originally i had around 2.75" and my cv angle wasnt the best, but wasnt too bad. I have manual hubs sitting in my room and when those go on I am gonna crank the front up a little more.
