    Eibachs have been around for ever. More commonly on sport cars. They compare very similar, with more of a lift however. ;)

    So one could run 285's with this set up, correct? Because my truck has a 3" spacer at the moment and I would really like to change it to something that doesn't ride like a log wagon lol.

    I am thinking about doing the same to my truck but I had a question about the rear brake line. Would I need to get a longer brake line do to the additional lift or is there enough slack?

    form what I know, you only have to replace the brake lines if you get a new leaf pack with more than 2in of rear lift, PM JLee about it, he'd know.

    That's awesome dude! I want to get the same setup, up front but get a all pro leaf pack for the rear. You think your going to need to get new UCA's?
