Eibach Pro Truck Kit

[rentrad]

Hi everyone..Long time lurker!

Just wanted to share some pictures of the Eibach Pro Kit lift Stage 1 that was just installed on my 21 Laramie.. They were out of stock when I ordered but received them in about 3 weeks, so not too bad.

I must say the ride quality on the road so far is amazing. Still has a great feel just a bit stiffer than stock and the rebound feels planted when absorbing the bumps on the road. Rear of the vehicle does not bounce around and immediately absorbs the uneven road.

My height is 40" Front 41" Rear

I also installed the Motosport hubcentric spacers 5/8.. Excellent quality.

I think I might go ahead and order 295's since I have the 285's and would like a little more patch on the road..

Awesome! Thanks for the feedback on this. I've been considering this kit here lately as I don't want to keep dumping money in my truck. Plans changed LOL. How much would you say it lifted your truck?

 

[Whoa_Ram]

@djevox LOL had to tag you buddy. I'm waiting for you to get yours in as well. I didn't realize it was front and rear springs either, just thought it was front.

to the OP, did you change you upper control arms?

Thanks! I want to get the front and rear close to level, so I may end up putting that front 1/2” spacer on. I’m still on the fence about that since I don’t want ride quality to suffer much. Eibach said we don’t need UCA’s with this kit, but it would help angles. I’m going to use the readylift UCA’s I already have from the 2” kit and sell the 2” spacers.

@rentrad I saw you post the full height, but what amount of lift did that equate to, and did your truck come with off-road package from the factory?

I would say a solid 2" in the front and 1.25" in the rear. I am sure it will settle a bit.

I did not, since its around a 2" lift I don't think it needs it but I will monitor it.

I do not have factory ORP.. I would say a solid 2 in the front and a bit over 1" in the rear..

So I am in the same boat. I would have liked to go up a little more. I would like to put in another 1/2 spacer, I do like having 1" of rake so I will get the Eibach 1.5" springs for the rear.

I can tell you the ride is great! on road manners is superior to factory.

I was wondering why I admiring your truck so much then realized it's Patriot blue like mine haha. I really want to move down to 18's, but haven't made my mind 100% yet.

How much were those spacers?

Wonder how ride would be without the rear springs installed? I want more of a level look too, but for myself I don't want too much of a lift.

That’s good to hear about the ride quality. On what setting did you put the clip on the front shocks?

We have similar taste. LOL.. I dechromed the badges and my Tint is 20% all the way around..
The Spacers were $225..

I love the look of the 18's and a lot of rubber. You can always try the front since it will level out the truck.. I wanted the extra lift in the rear. ORP trucks wont need it since they have 1" higher if they go with this kit. I do like how the rear shocks feel different than the factory over bumps though..

They were set to the highest setting. Thinking it was 3.. I did not install, I had my local shop do it.

I did the Eibach pro lift kit and absolutely love it. Its a little more planted feeling when driving the truck. Front sits about 39" and 40" in the back. At first I went level but experienced a wobble while in 4x4 at around 10-15 mph, so I then lowered it down a notch. I know some people think UCA aren't necessary, but I would at least put on the MOPAR ones that come with there 2" kit. My truck rides a lot better after I installed them.

before-

After-

I know I need bigger tires yet, but I plan on burning the stockers off first.

What notch did you end up on, and what was your total inches of front lift?

Looks good. I've been eyeing those wheels for a bit now. I found a pair for $500 and thought about picking them up.

I ended up with 2 3/4” lift upfront. It’s on the bottom clip setting, it was on the second from bottom. But I went down a notch to get a little rake back for towing. It did have a little wobble while in 4x4 on that setting also.

That’s a little confusing to me since the Eibach rep told me the bottom notch is 1.8” lift. Do you have the off-road package on your truck? I’m not really 100% sure if it even matters in this situation though.

With stock springs maybe, but I used the Eibach springs. There instructions are very misleading, but truck started out at 36 1/2” and ended up at 39”. So I guess I should have said 2 1/2” lift upfront.

That’s very interesting- I guess I’ll just gave to wait and see if mine turns out just like yours. Thanks for answering my questions!
