Eibach pro lift kit

There are several solutions.
1. Remove your sway bar completely, I get some people might not want to do this.
2. Leave the sway bar on and instead remove the cross member brackets and the factory skid and have no protection.
3. Do number 2 and buy an after market skid plate that requires you to remove the cross member brackets.
4. Remove the sway bar and get an after market skid or TRD pro skid and remove the the brackets.
5. Buy a cross member bracket relocation kit like the video or jimmy up something yourself.
6. Wait for Eibach to come with a solution for you, you could be waiting for a while.

 

Read towards the beginning (first 20 pages) there are some good pics of guys trucks and they have the parts they ordered. Eibach kit, 1/4 spacer for drivers side lean, you can either do nothing a block or some kind of aal/leaf pack in the rear, an ecgs bushing if you decide to take preventive measures while the truck is apart. But brands and exact parts is your preference. Make sure you try and find a comparable size truck that has the kit installed it’ll give you a great visual to help you choose.

 

nice

 

Will this happen with other such coil overs like Bil 6112 or Fox?

 

Hey what's up! I have two questions.
"Rides better than stock," What exactly does that mean? Softer? Stiffer? I have a TRD Sport and those are pretty stiff from the factory as-is.
Am I fine sticking with my stock UCAs? Or should I really look at JBA or Eibach's UCA? Not going too crazy here as far as giant tires. 275-70-17 at most.

This is also my daily. Right now it's really civilized on the pavement and makes a great daily. If lifting it means taking away from that, I'll leave it stock.

 

Does anybody in SoCal have a sway bar touching? We've installed 30 kits here and haven't seen it. It would be nice to get one in here and double check all the measurements against our install notes.

 

I did, but I took mine off.

 

Does a simple relo kit fix this issue? Wheelers tells me they include a kit with their coils now

 

Ok here is the truck sitting where it should, there is a funny (now) story about why it was sitting high in the front. Short version is alcohol was involved.

1/4" Driver side spacer
No sway bar relocation brackets
Single wheelers 1 1/2" aal
Jba uca
I know ride is subjective but all I can say it's firmer then OR suspension less body roll but more plush. I'm very happy I went with this setup.
Thank you for your quick reply @Ryan at Eibach

 

I have 265 70 17s on my truck. My front is set on the second notch and no rubbing. I SCS RAY 10s 17x8.5 -10 offset...i love the way my truck rides. I think it rides softer...rides so nice at highway speeds 70..just my 2 cents.....no vibration

 

Your truck looks great! How does your rear ride with that block? I think I’m going to skip the multi leaf kit and just throw a block in there and see how it does. Guy I was talking to at Headstrong basically told me to just do a block to get the rear where I wanted to be and the ride should be great. Figured if I don’t like it I can always switch out to the progressive leaf pack.

 

Thanks. I think the blocks are good for now. It can be a little bouncy at times. I drive about 40 miles round trip on the Taconic Parkway in NY. Its crappy road but i love the way the truck rides.....

 

Blocks will give you the most stock like ride in the back. Unless you're offroading a lot or hauling weight often, you should be fine.

 

You put the strut collar upside down i'll guess. Truck looks great! With all the 'sway bar hitting' talk, I didn't chance it and went with the 6112/5100 setup from Wheelers. Appreciate the responses from everyone including Ryan. As everyone already knows, Wheelers is great to deal with!

 

Nice rims!

 

I’d be glad to take a road trip down to have you guys test mine out

 

Sway bar isn't hitting springs without the relocation kit? Crazy how different these trucks can be!

 

I was just inland in Corona last weekend and saw the Eibach factory while driving by. I wouldn't mind driving up there again too.

Edit: Although I don't see myself installing the sway bar ever again. It just rides way better without it.

 

Eibachs with JBAs seem like the new "it" combo.

 

Nope not hitting. I will put the relocation brackets on at some point and see how it dose, But that wont be for a few weeks.
