    I got my kit installed yesterday! Front is set on the first notch with 1/4” spacer on the driver side for the taco lean. Rear is a 2” AAL from wheelers. Tires are 265/75R16

    Here are some before and after pics!

    Bottom setting or 1st notch= 2 inch lift
    Middle and top setting or 2nd-3rd Notch = 2.5 inch lift but is only to be used if you are running weight up front. This information is from Eibach and can also be found on headstrong.
    As far as settling, I haven’t heard much on people complain on settling like the OME springs. Pretty solid kit. Enjoy.

    Good to hear i was only looking to get 2" so bottom setting it is. I was between 5100 and 887 and the eibach kit but i was worried about settling so i feel like i made the right choice. I just ordered the eibach kit from wheelers and a 1.5" aal for the rear. Also i have the ecgs bushing on order.

    Yes you made the right choice. I also wanted to get the OME springs until I came across this thread. Also, good call on the ECGS. Post pics when it’s all done. Take care.

    I have been watching this thread way too long and agree - almost zero complaints about this kit overall. Once Headstrong reopens I will be doing just about the same thing as you (Eibach kit, HS 1.5” AAL, and ECGS bushing). I’m keeping my stock wheels with 265-75 tires. I think it will look alright without new wheels.

    Installed my Eibach coilovers and HS 1.5” progressive AAL. Love the ride! I see now why Headstrong recommends removing the factory overload, as you can see the rivet contacts the overload. I may cut/shorten the overload by 4” in the front so the rivet clears and I still get 1/2” of additional lift

    Thanks brother! Man, I love the way this thing drives. Honestly, I was slightly disappointed after the install because it was a little more firm than I had expected, but after a week of driving on it, it started to get broken in and I absolutely love the set up!20200809_203719.jpg

    After having mine on for a couple of months now. I am happy with the firmer ride on the bottom notch and no nosediving while braking. I used the Torch add a leaf with the overload spring still in place. Got the rake I wanted and very happy with the Eibach kit.
