You really had a measured difference of 4" on high after this mod?
I just measured, in High mode and in the front, I am getting about 3.5" higher than stock. But you could set-it to whatever you want--or however soon you want to change the CV's. I'm not going to ever run it in that mode. Too costly. Could take a few poser shots though.

Higher lifts will eventually come but they'll probably involve longer A-arms and CV shafts. There are some IFS Tundras with 5-6" lift (no body lift) nowadays.
