    This thread makes me want to switch out my Eibach for the 885. Which of the 2 provides a softer ride?

    Never had the Eibach's but I love my 885s! They ride very smooth and have never gave me a problem. Would definately recommend them!

    885s are one of the most popular coil choices. Good combo of ride and desired ride height. Depending on the desired ride height we pair them with a 10mm Enhancer kit a lot of times.

    Very small top-spacer kit to provide a little extra lift if needed without adding more preload to the coils.

    No. And you're not suppose to run 885's on 5100's at anything over '0' on the shocks..

    i had this set up for a couple months now and I cant seem to get my alignment correct. still pulling to the right. Had it done 2 times so far. Do yall think if I was to order some Light Racing UCAs for my truck it would help get it aligned?

    What are your alignment numbers?

    Generally, aftermarket UCAs correct caster and camber issues that would otherwise cause the steering to feel loose and wandering. If you're having an issue with the front end consistently pulling to one direction, you may need to find a better alignment shop.

    not sure why but the places i went to didnt give me any numbers but it is obvious that my camber is off. I was thinking of just going to the toyota dealer and have them do it instead of the locally owned shops.
