    Anyone with the stage 1 kit or stage 2 coilovers change out their needle bearing? Also, what did you guys do to your rear as far as lift? AAL?

    I changed my needle bearing. I used an ECGS clamshell bushing. I didn’t want to at first because it seems like half the folks here have no problems, but I didn’t want to take a chance. I did a Icon 1.5” AAL.

    Waiting for Headstrong to get back on the HS 3AAL as well. Hopefully tomorrow morning will find out. Wondering if the Icon 1.5 Progressive AAL is an equal option to get instead. (If those are in stock)

    Does anyone have any issues with the swaybar bushing cracking? Mine are less than year old and have signs of cracking on the surface that is in contact with swaybar bracket. I will get pics in the morning.

    My Stage 1 arrived yesterday, the finish/detail look really good. Didn't get a sway bar relocation piece, but appears it's not needed? I'll be on second clip, not sure how close to contacting the sway bar that will put me.

    @Ryan at Eibach mentioned before I think that the kits were redesigned a bit and the newer kits do not come with the sway bar relocation hardware as the shock was modified to have extra clearance in that area.

    I got an email back from Headstrong saying their 3 leaf AAL will probably be in stock mid next month. So I just bought the Eibach kit now and will get their AAL when it's in stock. I just wanted to make sure I get the Eibach kit.

    You are right. It is an OEM piece.

    CMC? Plastic trimming? Do tell, don't leave us salivating in the dark over here, haha.

    My SCS wheels are -12 and I've been debating on going to 285/75 the next time I need to pick up tires. Noticed a huge difference in ride quality while on roads?

    Crazy. I did the 3" level lift (pick lift) and my upper control arms are so out of whack. I cant get a half way decent alignment unless I buy new UCAs..

    So has anyone done any comparisons with the Eibach kit and the Bilstein 6112 kit?

    I guess that 1 extra inch makes a lot of difference even though it doesn’t seem like a lot
