I'm interested in getting a lift kit for my 2019 Rav4. Any recommendations or suggestions? I'm finding a lot of leveling kits which also look really good so she isn't nose down but I'd really like to lift her an inch or so.

Nobody makes a lift kit just yet for the 5th gen RAV4. I went with the rough country which offered the highest leveling kit on the market right now at 2.5 in and I love it!

I just driveway installed a 2" kit from TORQ Engineering on my 20 Hybrid and it couldn't have gone any easier, not a single surprise or specialty tool. Drives exactly as new, awaiting a new wheel from Ultra and then it's new 245 70 17 Wildpeaks! Toyota RAV4

I could've used some clearance up in Big Bear this weekend ahaha! How does it ride? Any weird squeaks from the suspension?
 
Yeah visually, but overall it'll be a 1.5-2.5" lift depending on which leveling/lift kit you choose. Eibach is coming out with springs probably next month that adds about 1-2" and some people were saying they would add a leveling kit on top to make it 2-4".
Not interested in Lift springs. If you jack up your car you can already see how little articulation the oem shocks have from ride height. Topping out the oem shocks suck. There was that video of the eibach springs being installed on the rav4 and there was absolutely no droop coming off the lift.

I just want a slight lift with the car being level. I will just have to make do with the lift spacer offerings that are available, I just wish there was something with a tad bit more rear lift.

The LP Adventure kit is even front to back. So it doesn’t look saggy.

wow that is straight sexy...

why does this kit cost so much more than other ones?
It costs more predominantly due to marketing. It also comes with spacers for the rear control arms, exhaust, and shocks to truly keep geometry in line. Other kits do not include these items. The fit and finish of each part is very good as well.

All the lift kits advertise more lift in the front than the rear, so the vehicle looks good completely empty. I keep tools and recovery gear in the back of my vehicle (maybe 50 or 55lb at most), and the rear appears noticably lower. I am going to make a custom set of spacers to lift it another inch.

Yes, total suspension travel is the same, but the only time I have been stuck was when I high-centered. I have also scraped the front and rear bumpers. So, I do think ground clearance is a more pressing challenge for this vehicle than total wheel travel.
