    In an install video and on the Eibach website, it references "+0-1" for the rear shocks on the "PRO-TRUCK-LIFT".
    Does this mean the rear shocks provide up to 1" of rear lift, or something else?

    Also, I didn't see anything like it on the site...does Eibach sell pre-assembled coilovers for the PRO-TRUCK-LIFT for the Tacoma?

    Thanks.

    Shocks do not lift the rear. Our shocks can accommodate up to 1.5-2" of lift.

    We do not pre-assemble. If you want this service Toytec, Wheelers and Yota Mafia do it.

    Just to make sure I'm understanding this statement, you're saying the REAR shocks can accommodate up to a 1.5-2" of lift (either via block, aal, etc.)? Just want to verify due to the 0-1" references made on multiple sites. Only asking to prevent damaging the shocks by pushing it passed its recommended usage. Thanks.

    Ha ha, you're right that folks will always push the limit of what information is given. I guess I'm just being on the cautious side as it's my first lift and testing waters so far. I'll probably only go 1" in the rear, 2" in front, which should leave me with about 1" of rake. I just didn't want to hit that limit of the rear shocks, so this information is perfect. Thank you both!

    I just ordered the Pro Truck lift kit and 1 inch block. I did this because the rear shocks info stated “for trucks with 0-1” lifts and the install manual said that the springs will provide 2 inches of lift on the bottom notch and recommended not going any higher due to a degradation in ride quality. I was under the impression that the 2nd notch was for 2 inches of lift with a steel bumper and the third notch is for 2 inches of lift with a steel bumper and a winch. If you’re saying the rear struts will perform well with a higher than 1 inch lift and the ride quality in the front will be fine with the springs in the 2nd notch setting, I would love to do that. I have a 1.5 inch rake, so that would put my front up 2.5 instead of 2 and I could keep my preferred 0.5 inch rake after the lift. I have the stock bumpers and no winch. Will I be fine to do that? Thanks.

    Looks great! What notch for the fronts and how much lift in the back? What’s the tire size in these photos? Thanks.
