Bilstein 5100's with Eibach Pro springs

Anyone running Bilstien 5100's with Eibach springs on the front. Going to get mine put on next week and want to see what it looks like with factory rear or should I wait till I get rear springs and shocks?

 

Depending on the perch that the springs are set at, the front will be lifted up to 2.5". The shock in the rear do not provide lift, you will need to add an add-a-leaf / leaf pack.

 

I'll either be going with the ICON 3 leaf kit or OME complete leaf pack later down the road. I'd all probably have the front set on the bottom perch

 

The Eibach springs are longer than the OEM springs so you will will be a squatter /tail dragger.

I originally had the same set up on my 2nd gen, the Wheelers 3 leaf pack was inexpensive and paired up great with the 5100/Eibach.

 

Thanks. I guess I really need to measure to see how much lower the front is then the back right now huh.

 

I'd double check with Bilstien first. I read in another thread here that the 5100s are a direct factory replacement and are designed to be used with OEM springs only.

 

Yup heard the same thing 5100’s 1.5” front lift 4th setting. Ride is great. 1.5” rear lift to maintain rake. Hope this helps for looks. A member on here posted an email from Bilstein about pairing with aftermarket springs.

 

I ran 5100's with Toytec springs on my 4th gen 4runner without any issues. Wheeler offroad actually suggested the combo.

 

Did you run any shims in the back? Didnt know about possible vibrations.

 

5100s front and back - Eibach Pro springs up front - bottom setting:

 

Looks good. You have any lift in the back?
Also are those 285 or 265 tires?

 

Thanks - really happy with it. Just the 5100s no added shims, leaf or anything in the rear.

 

265/75/16 on 0 offset Method 701s

 

Nice. I'm going with 16x8 Raceline Injector and 265/75/16 Falken Wildpeak at3w it BFG KO2.

 

I did not have vibrations, I did shim the rear axle.

 

Are they the 1.6 springs?

 

Looks awesome. Any idea exactly how much lift the 5100s gave you on the bottom setting with the eibach coils?

 

I went ahead and ordered the Headstrong 3 leaf progressive pack.

 

I have bilstein 5100's all around set at lowest setting eibach springs up front aal in the back. I gained about 2" all around.

 

Thanks alot. That's what I'm looking for.
