Eibach pro lift kit

Yeah I was late on getting mine too. Wish I could've added it to my collection.

 

@Chad7088 what amount of lift did you get? you were on the bottom notch?

anyone have the breakdown on what notch yields what lift? looking at the beginning of the thread someone reported 4+ on the top notch? @prickly_goo

 

Is there still an Eibach rep here?

 

I got this from the Head Strong site

 

I had the kit on my other truck and talked with Eibach cple times. 1st notch(bottom), 2" gained from the springs alone, 2nd notch is for added weight, bumper winch, etc- if used with no extra weight just to gain a little extra height it will be harsh riding, 3rd notch is not recommended unless a lot of weight is added like bumper, winch, skids, etc, the ride will be too harsh. I had mine at the bottom, it was a firmer than stock but comfortable ride. Looking to add these shortly to my new 20 OR.

 

Hmmm
how to go about getting 2.5 out of it? maybe a small spacer above the strut? like one side gets .25 and the driver gets .5 spacer?

 

@mark@eibach ? Not very active on here yet.

 

The guy who said he got 4" had installed his spring perches upside down, and that was before he corrected the problem.

 

I'll be getting a bumper soon.
maybe I'll try out the middle slot and see how it goes. Will probably add a 1/4 spacer to fix the lean (maybe I should look and see if I lean)

 

I added the 1/4 spacer to my order. As of now Wheeler will be getting the pro lift in by mid October. I also called Eibach about 30 mins ago to ask about what perch to go with a 153lbs bumper. They recommended the 1st perch since my bumper is not that heavy and no winch. Also, about 25lbs were removed from the stock bumper and crash bar making the bumper come in at only 125 lbs. He explained that I need to take the weight and divide X2 so it's only about 62lbs per spring so no need to go to the second notch. I would get 2" from that lift. I am also adding the Wheeler single AAL to keep the factory rake.

 

Did eibach say when they will be back in stock, early Oct?

 

Around October 10th is what he said and it was the guy at Wheeler that gave me that date.

 

Check headstrong, it seems like they have it in stock

 

I get a military discount at Wheeler. Headstrong could not even give me a TW discount. The Eiboch lift kit assemble was about 691 before shipping.

 

I'm buying from neo garage, I got the impression they were in stock

 

@DTaco22

So you went with the highest notch? anything big and heavy on the front of your truck? Did I see you say that you got 3" of lift from the upper notch?

I'll add in a spacer too, for the taco lean
