Just bought a 2017 sv. Came with leveling spacer and 285/60r20 toyo ATs. The level sets the front end an inch higher than the rear. I was going to get a block in the rear to truly level it out but upon my recent lurking around here, seems the best bet is to upgrade the shocks to adjustable Bilsteins. Is this correct? If so, what model? Also, should I swap the fronts out too? Would like to try and get rid of that floating feeling so to speak when going over bumps. Kinda feels like a boat I guess lol.

Lots of guys go with bilstien 5100's to level out the front. What size spaces do you have? Sounds like you have 2" or 2.5", the difference in my truck is about 1.75" so it might sit a little high.

I bought the truck as is so I’m not positive but it seems to be just a 2in spacer up front. I plan to put a stiffer shock both front and rear but I guess my question is, can you raise the rear up an inch with bilsteins? Or do I have to put in a 1inch Block?

Doesn't get much traffic because you're asking the same question that's been asked 1000 times before. You can only adjust the fronts on Bilsteins, rears are not adjustable. To stiffen up the ride check to make sure you have a sway bar and that it's connected. If you remove the spacer and use the Bilsteins to raise the front end they also get more stiff the more you raise it.

"get more stiff the more you raise it." Usually goes hand and hand lol?

My apologies. This is my first time dealing with leveling ect. I have read the front were adjustable but kept seeing things about the rears bumping it up an inch. Which would be perfect. I plan on swapping all 4 corners out eventually but really want to get the rear up ASAP. Guess I’ll go with a 1in Block.
