    noticed I find a lot of reviews on tacoma 3rd gen. with eibach pro truck sport lift shocks with eibach 2" lift coil springs. but very few with the factory (oem) coils springs. having mine installed in about three days... anyone here with that setup...eibach pro truck sport shocks set at 2" (highest ring) with (oem) coil springs...eibach max lift is 2" ..............any pros and cons...........
    btw...oem: original equipment manufacturer...not: old man emu
    with pictures if possible...

    I don't have that set up, but I believe a lot of people go with the Eibach coils because they have a higher spring rate. When I did my set up (Bilstein), I swapped out the factory coils with Bilstein 650lb. The Eibach's are nice.

    so from what im reading eibach coil springs are rated @ 600+ lbs and stock 3rd gen tacomas come rated @ 717 lbs. only advantage to eibachs is that there 2 " longer/taller....

    just asking.... because the only advantage I see to the eibachs is that they're 2 in longer... the whole point of the shocks being adjustable is I'll just set it at the 2 inch (max) level with stock coils springs...which are rated heavier....
    btw....eibach pro truck have only 3 settings...0-1-2 " of lift.....
