Eibach springs

[Adub]

Yeah they are the same part number, I have the 2.7/1.6 installed and I feel like the front is slightly higher than the rear. I’d take a few pics but the RHO is in the shop unfortunately.

I guess the actual question I should have asked should be...what are the measurements? (When able of course…)

While I’m not interested in the springs, I find it disappointing that they are using the same springs as the TRX that was about 150lbs heavier on the nose. This will negatively affect ride quality but I’m guessing those that raise em are not as concerned?

It's hard to even notice the difference in ride, I'm very happy with the performance of the springs, did @ 45 miles of washboard/pothole fire roads yesterday & the truck road great

The ride is excellent, but I agree it’s lazy not the modify the front spring rate. Wish I had my truck for pics. I will end up adding a small spacer to the rear to level it out.

I decided to go with foutz 1.5” collar and getting it installed next Friday.

How does it look?

Unfortunately they were out of stock on the black collars. He had to order the raw material and get them powder coated black. Install will be in the upcoming week. Sucks as I was excited to get it done.

Did you ever add a small spacer and if so what option did you go with?

Ordered Eibach fronts from @Nick797, well I've ordered everything from Nick haha. Hopefully can get installed next week.

How did this turn out?

Won't get installed until next Wednesday

RHO on the eibach pro. Definitely not nose high so that makes me feel better. Looks great except I have no clue why they chose the positive offset wheel AND only 37x11.50. Vossen -18 offset is going look perfect. Rest assured, I’ll be the guinea pig soon enough.

Looks good. I'm going to put 37s on the stock rim since to me they don't look that bad.

Are you local to foutz? I got the 2" from them and was going to have them install it as they are reasonably priced. They asked if they could test fit some parts to the truck while I was there but stopped responding to my emails. I have an appointment at my local dealer now to install on 5/9

ordered the 1.6” leveling springs just now, and also some new Mickey Thompson Baja Boss 36” tires to put on my Vossen HFX1s (18x9 / +0mm offset) will post pics when it’s all done

U can fit 37s with the 1.6 and a 00 offset with the mickey Thompsons not even close to a rub

I was thinking about doing that, but the 36’s seemed like a good compromise of losing power / MPGs then going straight for 37s

Unfortunately I’m not. I’ve had a hard time with my shop getting he black 1.6”. I finally have an appt for Monday to get them installed. Will post pics once done!

I have just under an inch of clearance in my 7ft garage door. Would a level raise the overall hieght of the truck? Or just match the back end height which fits just fine in the garage?

For a level kit: It would only raise the front end to a level position but overall height would not be affected.

For a lift: all four corners would raise and overall height will increase.

I can’t wait for these to go on. 20x10 -18

So if I have about .5-1.0 inch of clearance on my stock truck right now, leveling the front won’t raise the overall height at all? And I should still fit in no problem?
