Eibach pro lift kit

I just did mine, second notch without any armor yet but I have OME heavy duty leaf packs. Got back from a 500 mile trip, while there it was on gravel Forest service roads and my stiffness has went away. Truck rides pretty nice now. I know that blocks have a harsher ride.

 

yeah i was thinking the same too. also i feel that getting aftermarket UCAs should help out with that stiffness as it should give me more articulation.

 

You are correct on after market UCA giving you more travel/articulation. They also will help with correction any Cv/ball joint issues with alignment but the stiffness come from the heavy springs. I believe they are 750-800lbs compared to factory 550lb. I believe you can reduce that stiffness by going back to the recommended 1 clip position. It will also settle in over time the more you work the suspension.
Good luck!

 

It's gunna be stiff on the 2nd clip. These spring at 720lbs are much stiffer than other spring with other kits members use.

 

Anyone bought this kit from HS know if it includes the sway bar relocation blocks? Ordered my kit yesterday but it doesn't say on their website if the blocks are included. Need to know if I need to order some for install or not. TIA!

 

I know the Pro Truck 2.0 came with the relocation brackets. And just looking through the directions on the Eibach site for the Pro Truck kit, it showes how to install them.... so I would think they are included.

 

Mine did.

 

Thanks

 

So did mine

 

I emailed HS and asked just to be sure and they told me it was not included and that I shouldn’t need it. I’ll wait until I get it in and check to see if it’s in the box anyway but a little shocked that this was the response.

 

For the wheelers AAL did you go with the 1.5" or 2"? And how much of lift did you gain in the rear exactly?

Edit: did you leave your over load spring or left it in?

 

Kit got in today. Front struts pre-assembled to first notch. Deaver 1.5" AAL. Sway bar relocation brackets and spacer to correct lean included. Gonna get wheels and tires ordered here soon.

 

Still able to snag one?

 

That’s the same setup I have and I love it.

 

damn that stance looks perfect. How’s the front stiffness?

 

That looks pretty much exactly what I’m going for. Ordering my wheels and 285s here in a week or so.

 

Did you do a CMC to fit 285s?

 

truthfully it’s not stiff at all. Any harshness is coming from the tires.

 

nope. No rubbing either. Just have jba control arms.

 

Did you do control arms with the lift? Im planning on running stock UCAs for a while
