Eibach Pro Truck Kit

Eibach part # E80-27-011-02-22. That’s for 4x4 crew cab
Everyone make sure you do your due diligence to get the part number skg74 posted. The part# E80-27-011-01-22 that three different online retailers told me was fine is actually for 2wd. The difference is the spring rates.
 
Here is mine maxed out on height with the Eibach kit and I added Icon 1.5" rear springs. I'm running 275/65-20 Nitto G2's. Imo you could easily run 285/65-20's.20211126_161259.jpg
 
I just pulled the trigger on the Eibach Pro Kit. ETA is 1-2 months, that gives me some time to find me a pair of UCA's.
 
Just got mine today

Does anyone know if you can squeeze 37’s on there I currently have the stage 2 eibach kit and I’m running 35’s no issues but looking to go up a bit
 
Anyone who’s had this kit installed - what was the actual billed install time vs quoted? Trying to get my stage 2 kit + UCAs installed, and was quoted 5 hours labor + alignment. Does 5 hours seem right?

When my buddy and I Installed my lift, it took us 3 hours. Using a lift, and air tools etc. my buddy is a mechanic by trade and I’m an Electrician by trade, so I know my way around tools etc. and I’ve lifted Jeeps and my 2015 1500 in my garage by myself. Point being if the garage that quoted you 5 hours has a decent amount of experience, that time frame should include when you drop it off to driving away.

In the 3 hours it took us, we installed new front UCA, RC lifted struts, rear 1” Motofab Spacers, rear Core 4x4 1” end links. And that includes breakfast pizza break and not killing ourselves physically. I know it’s not the Stage 2 Eibach, but hopefully this helps put it into perspective.

Thanks, that helps a lot! I think it only took about 8 hours when a had a full 6“ lift put on my last truck, and thought this would be a lot less work. Ill definitely check with a couple other places
 
F47DFA0D-2234-40EE-9F01-3A7D2AACC846.jpegi pulled the trigger on eibach pro truck 2 and from the shop that installed it, front coilover is maxxed out and still have 1in rake, looking into putting a strut spacer to get rid of the rake, will be more of a 4 inch lift im guessing, im confused on why my rear is higher even with the coilover maxed out but overall love the feel, dont understand how people can say it is stiff when it is soft as hell

Nope. Don't add any more. If you want a 4 inch lift then get a 4 inch lift. You will destroy your front end if you add any more up front. Most all of us with a level have some rake. It's no big deal. Most actually prefer it so that it doesn't squat with a load. This is mine with 3/4" to 1" rake.

I agree with @H2OMAN. Having a slight rake according to the tape measure, but visually it looks much better than a squat under load. I have just unde ~3/4” rake with 35’s and it sits and looks much better than if I went off what the tape measure said. IMG_0164.jpegIMG_9914.jpegIMG_9940.jpeg

Hey man, to me your truck looks great in the pic.
Don't usually want it to be truly equally level by the fenders & the tape measure, it doesn't look right.

However, if you are still interested, can you locate some numbers on your silver spring on the front coilover and share a pic?

I wouldnt expect it to be maxed out at that height, and it is not unheard of the wrong spring rate gets assembled onto the coilover.
