    few things here and there.

    Super late, but mind if I ask what setting you went with for your 5100 + Eibach spring? Trying to make sure I get mine right when I get the truck back tomorrow lol. They are going to call me and ask which setting I want.

    I’m disappointed with the eibach springs. I only got 1 inch of lift with 5100s on the bottom notch. I’m probably going to the second notch maybe the 3rd.

    Ended up doing the second notch with the Eibach springs.

    2.5” lift, level with back. OME AAL in the rear.

    That's what I did. Rides great set @ 2" and much less brake dive.

    I had bilstein 5100s with a spacer so I replaced it with the Eibach spring and it lowered my truck two inches on the bottom perch on the 5100s so maybe half and inch to an inch lift over stock. I’m going to jack it up to the third notch since it’s only temporary until I go with better suspension. Overall I would not recommend buying this setup brand new save your money and get 6112s. These were on my truck when I got it so I’m working with what I have

    I ended up going up just one notch and was surprised what a huge difference it made! I’m quite pleased with them now

    Purchased from original owner who special ordered. Factory Trd off road suspension, skids, and rear diff lock.
    Do you have any lift in the rear? Wondering if they sagged overtime (before you got the truck)

    IMG_2019.jpg IMG_2575.jpg I have the Eibach springs with the 5100s on the third notch. I’m getting a DRT Hybrid Bumper in September so well how much it’ll lower then. I’m estimating my lift for the front currently to be about 3 inches to 3 1/4 inch lift.
