Taco PRO Owners: Interested in a spring upgrade for front?

UPDATE:

17-19 TRD PRO front springs are now in STAMPING. Provided they all pass final QA, this is only a couple weeks away from hitting the shelves. Thank you all for being patient.

+1.5" Front Lift , will need Rear Block to be level.

Front Springs: E30-82-069-04-20
Front Springs + Rear Blocks: E30-82-069-04-22

*2020 + are still in production and I'm working to get any updates on ETA's.

 

How the heck did the 17-19 wind up ahead of the 20's!? The 20 was months ahead in development. What's going on Mark?

 

Was price point already discussed?

 

Because 17-19 pro is best pro

 

Because Eibach has their heads up their asses, that's how.

 

That was the price when Eibach accidentally put them up for sale

 

I mean seriously, what is happening here. I guess if anything we can move forward knowing that you can just use a spacer as large as 1.3" and still have your shocks in the intended bypass zone (since that's how much lift Eibach intends their springs to provide on the '20). Im just going to get the spacer and move on until it's time to fully upgrade to a mid travel setup.

 

thanks!
Just going off the price of their other springs, I’m hoping for around $190 just for the front. gonna put these on my 2017 Pro shocks + Deaver stage 1 rears and hope it be sits right.

 

I'm kind of on the same boat. Got an add a leaf in the rear . Planning to get the fronts and hope it levels.

 

Grrrrr. You 17-19 guys






Jus kidding. Good for you guys but CMON MAN! @mark@eibach
I’m jonesing over here

 

you seem to just be jerking people around

 

Curious what this could do for me…. I currently have the Revtek preload spacer on the front. Which is supposed to be +1.5”, but with all the weight I have in my truck it’s effectively +.5 at best. Wonder if I could send it and run this plus that.

Edit… lol November? Nvm. I’ll just get kings.

 

I don't think these springs would help you much anyway. From what the Eibach guys have said they're designing this kit for stock rigs and wound up actually using a longer spring with a lower spring rate. Not sure about your truck but the '20 Pro has 12.25" 650# springs; I've been considering just buying a 14" 650# and calling it a day...or going with a King kit. I should've bought an OR

 

Man, give the guy a break. I'm sure he is not running the whole show at Eibach and doesn't make all the decisions. He's sharing what he can when he can. TRD Pro owners probably aren't the biggest community, so thinking we are a high priority is a bit silly.

 

This comes down to development and availability of development vehicles, and production scheduling. Long story short, when this thread was started, there was no specified year range. Our Engineers got a 20' started with that. When I got back on here, there were a lot 17-19's who were confused and disappointed. We fast-tracked development to the 17-19's to get caught up with the 20's. So now it comes down to scheduling and production.

The 17-19's have production work and wire dimensions that fit in line with another run of part numbers so we snuck them in where we could. We thought we were doing the right thing?

$198 for the pair of front springs.

Thank you for being a team player!

I'm your voice here, if you don't want that then I can stay out of it, just let me know.

I feel this is worth noting despite your decision to try the Kings. As mentioned and depicted in our marketing materials, we spent time on the shock dyno to find the balance of maximum height and ride quality for the Fox shock. If your combination at static height stays within our tested range, then hypothetically you should be OK. That being said, there is no telling what the ride quality or top-out characteristics would feel like while driving without actually testing this. You will have to do some math and try at your own risk. If you still want to try, I'm happy to help where I can as a NON - EIBACH endorsed project for the people.

There may be some confusion from an old post, but the 2020 Factory Rate is 616.3lbin.
The Eibach 2020 TRD PRO spring is 620lbin.

Everyone is a priority, I do my best to look-out for this community, because I'm part of it. Thanks for having my back.

 

I didn't mean to cause confusion here but when I called Eibach they couldn't give me an answer but this was Fox's response with regard to the 2020 Pro spring specs.

 

Negative, that was my email to Fox. and it was in reference to my 2018 TRD Pro.

The only thing that email confirmed is I have 650# springs on my 2018. If your part number is the same, 650# springs. Also, the dimensions I posted were actual measurements I took.

Mark also posted this after my post:

 

BTW, thanks for your work and the rest of the team @ Eibach. I know its been a trying couple of years for manufacturers and supply chains! Cheers, Mark!
