Eibach pro lift kit

Notch 2, plus 1/4 spacers, 1" bodylift, swaybar delete. AAL with OL spring in rear.

 

updating this.

rubbing was due to the +offset on the stock sport wheels, replaced stock wheels with falcon offroad 17x9 -12 and went with falken wildpeaks 285/70/17. no rub but also did cab mount chop just to be on the safe side.
very happy with the ride, how it absorbs bumps. did some trails in Moab no problem.

still on 2nd notch with about 150 lbs of aftermarket load in the front, SSO metal bumper, predator 12k winch, rci skid plate, i'm around 2" + estimate lift on the front.
The rear however is another story. it's beginning to settle especially with the extra load, RTT, bed rack, full size spare, and is now level with teh front visually, i want a little rake even with load, it currently have the icon 3leaf aal.

since am looking to get metal rear bumper and adding longrangeamerica 33gal gas tank, i am getting the icon leafs option2 after talking with Tanner at eibach. The rear eibachs can take the 2.25" lift of the icon no problem even though they listed it at 1.5".

 

Let us know how the new Icon full leaf pack rides! I have the same problem with the Icon 3 leaf AAL. The ride is nice, but it's not providing the advertised 1.5" lift after settling for a few hundred miles.

I have the Eibach Stage 1 lift (2nd clip) up front. I originally installed the Icon 3 leaf AAL with a 1/2" block (overload spring removed), but I recently swapped out the 1/2" block for a 1" block to get a little rake back. The rear still looks slightly lower though whenever I haul things in the bed.

 

Not that it matters TOO much, but I’ve run OEM wheels since I got the truck, with the lift. Lift compliments them greatly with these Methods and beefier tires

Thought I’d update after getting the new wheels / tires on. Stage one still holding strong. Switched to 5100’s and went right back. On the second notch, did a CMC to fit bigger tires, loving the setup.

 

Hey man. Love the truck! I've been trying to find the right setup for mine. Recently added 275/70/17 Falken Wildpeaks and Method Wheels.

I've also got an Eibach Stage 1 Pro Lift Kit, but struggling with what to do to the rear. Full leaf replacement? 1.5" AAL? If so what brand? Wheelers? Icon? Something else? Im rarely carrying anything heavy. Loved the look of yours and saw you had a 1.5" AAL (overload left in?) with similar lift/tire setup and wanted your thoughts on your ride!

Someone else told me Dobinson full leaf pack, but that gives 2.10" lift in the rear and I'm afraid it's going to look weird. With 2.5 inch from the Eibach lift in the front.

Appreciate the input!

 

do u have xtra weight up front?

 

Contact Hotshot offroad for suspension questions.

I'm running Cali Raised rock sliders, but that's it - No aftermarket bumpers or other added weight.

The Icon AAL + 1/2" block in the rear was nearly dead level with the front (Eibach Stage 1 set at 2nd clip) before I added sliders, which is why I swapped out the 1/2" blocks for 1" blocks.

 

i'm heavy upfront maybe that's why i have a little rake unloaded, SSO bumper, 12k winch, rci skid plate but will let you know once i get the leafs.

 

that’s actually what i was planning on doing..
could you kindly share measurements?

 

I just ordered my stage 1 kit from Wheeler's, debating whether or not to go to clip #2. I don't have any extra weight in the front. I've read through the entire thread, and it seems the ride may be a little stiffer than the first clip. I have a dclb sport, my question is, would the 2nd perch be comparable to the stock sport suspension, or too stiff for me? 90% on road, although the roads around here are like a warzone sometimes.

 

Dumb question. Would the bottom notch give slightly more lift on eibach coils on a 4banger Tacoma since there is less weight upfront than a v6?

 

Has anyone experienced any sagging of the springs that has had the Stage 1 kit for a few years?

 

I haven't noticed much, if any, settling or sagging of the front springs, and I've had the Stage 1 kit installed for about 9-10 months.
That was one of the reasons I avoided all lift kits that came with OME springs.

 

4 years and ~ 35K miles mostly on road …..zero sag.

 

I have a leaking front shock on passenger side as well. Took it to the Toyota dealership thinking it was a brake line spraying the wheel well down let me know your thoughts on this. And as well how long can I drive on it being it is my daily driver.
