Eibach pro lift kit

Thanks!

 

No rubbing yet...did a little flexing yesterday and still nothing. I imagine it could rub slightly wit a lot of flex, but so far, so good.

 

Are you on the first notch?

 

Yes, first clip with 265-75-16 KO2s.

 

Do you have anything in the rear?

 

1.5” MaxTrac blocks. Ride is great.

 

Cool I was thinking of going up to the second notch but I only have the 1”inch block I’m installing the kit this Saturday decisions

 

I hear ya. I’ve wrestled with the 2nd clip decision too, but think I’ll stay where I am. In my opinion, it looks great and proportional. I’m not running 285s & I worry my tires might start to look a bit small if I go any higher.

Also, I want the best possible ride from this amazing Eibach setup and that’s the first clip if you aren’t running additional weight. In addition, going higher increases CV angles, wear/tear, and increases the chances of more driveline vibrations. All for what? A measly .5” of additional height? It already gave me 2.25”. That’s plenty for me.

In summary, for my setup, I just don’t see the benefit to going any higher, but there are plenty of potential cons.

 

Yeah you’re right thanks dude and I thought it barely gave 2” so knowing it gave a little over 2” I’m fine with that your truck looks good!

 

Every truck is different. I was one of the lucky ones who gained a bit over 2”.

 

Hopefully right lol

Can you give me a total number on your cost lift kit plus install ? I currently have the super stiff spacer lift and am looking at this set up. cheers

 

I got the kit for $450 from another member who bought them but never installed them.

A local off road shop charged me $500 for the install and alignment.

 

Do you rub on your front mud flaps?

 

Just got my alignment done. Techs that did the work said there was not much adjustment needed and said that I could go to 33's in the future with a little trimming and asked who did the lift. Told them it was done at home and complimented on it. No CMC needed. Just got my tires so might be doing that later. Ride is very comfortable and driveline angles are good to go. Going to do a chalk test and argue with myself if I want to smooth out the ride or go for MPG. No vibrations whatsoever and am loving my lift. This Eibach kit is well worth the money and highly recommended. Now I'm going to save up for step bars or sliders.

 

No rubbing.

 

Finally got my lift installed and I love it. I’m maxed out- 2nd clip. I haven’t measured but it’s easily 3-3.5”. I have a 6mo old TSB leaf pack just threw on cheap single AAL for the rear. I replaced most my suspension while I was at it. Love it. Maybe I’m in a honeymoon stage or I’m used to my shot suspension but it’s super comfy. Cv angles are wild lol but whatever.

 

Brother just noticed in your pic of the front suspension, is your steering tie rod not backed up to lock in place?

 

No it wasn’t installed properly, we were still putting everything back together at that point. It was one of the only pics I snapped before tires went back on and blocked my view of the setup.

 

Gotcha, safe wheeling!
