tundra lift setup

Ive heard many things on how much the tundra set up actually lifts the truck. For those of you who have one please tell me what it settled to.

There is a WONDERFUL tool on this site....

It's called the "Search" Button. Just up to the right, 2 clicks to the left.

Well I hate nothing more than when I get told there is a search button on here, so I'll try to help.... no offense to anybody, but when people throw the "there is search button on here" line I want to tell them "you have 10 fingers, pick one and shove it up your ......" Geez, that wasn't nice... I hope santa isn't reading this...
Okay I lost my measurements for my lift, but I estimated I got 2.5-3" up front with the tundra 4x4 extra cab coils and 3/8 spacers from bamachem. I say this because I really did do a ˟˟˟˟-ton of research and my CV's were as high as anybody's even with the differential drop kit. Just recently, I feel like it really dropped a lot. I'm feel a bit bad piping up about it, but I started a post yesterday where I went on to say my 32's are rubbing again when i turn at the right spot... So I guess you can just realize that all springs settle at least SOME. In all honesty, I rate my mechanical ability as above average, my experience as average, and my tool selection as below average, but I thought doing the front suspension was a big pain in the butt. I had a tough time fitting that OME/Tundra coil with spacer in there... I mean it took me at least 8 hours of solid work to make it fit. That said, I wouldn't attempt anything higher. If you're really just looking for a number, I'm going to say I got about 1.5" of lift.... maybe 2.... I'm giving my honest opinion but my numbers are very un-scientific unfortunately. Note that I do have limited flairs and my right side rubbed before when most peoples don't with 32's... Otherwise, I'm very happy with the lift but would get softer rear springs if I did it again.
