Just got th eibachs put in on clip 3. Trucks still smooth, steering wheel is slightly to the left but I’m going to take it back to get re aligned after new wheel installed. Over all happy with th move.
Any one have a clue if my cv angles are good or not? How would I know

Do you have a picture of the UCA angle under the regular front end load? I am curious about those RC UCA's with a ~2'' lift. Thanks.

A pic of this, but with the wheel/tire on and setting on the ground. Or, am I hallucinating? ;)

Hell, I don't even know what I mean. LOL.

Honestly feels very similar. I haven’t noticed any real difference in ride yet I only drove it a few miles since installed

Is this picture with the truck still in the air on the lift?

Venom Rex 602 20x9 +18 offset I believe stock wheels are +19 offset so very similar and I have no clearance issues I do get a rub coming from somewhere I can’t pin point at. Full lock to the left but only in reverse
And I have RC UCA

Something about your CV axel angles doesn't sit right with me. Looks much more pronounced than it should with a leveling strut. It might be the angle that the picture was taken but this is another picture from a member on here and this angle looks okay. 1619448297144.png

I believe that angle is so severe due to the truck still being on the lift. I.E no weight on the front end yet.

Good point. Would probably be fine once on the ground. Didn't notice that!

It won’t be flat but the boots shouldn’t be cranked in opposite directions. I’m sure yours will look good but post a picture when you can!

Has anyone set their Eibachs on clip #2 for the 0.9” lift? Or 5100’s set about that height? I have a Built to Serve with either 2” or 2.5” spacer up front (bought truck used) and I’m not a fan, looks nose up to me. I would rather have it in that range and retain some rake and not have to worry about UCA angles.
