Anyone running Eibach Pro-Truck Shocks with lift?

Looking into these and wanted to get some feedback. I searched the forums and can only find guys using Eibach coils which always have awesome reviews. From what I read, Eibach makes Toytec's shocks for their Boss kit. Anyone want to chime in?

I just ordered these today for my 3rd Gen... I do not know anyone who has experience with them either, I cant find any reviews or comments anywhere. I personally called toytec and asked about them, however the guy I spoke with (lift specialist) didn't know of anyone who has used them yet.

So I'm going to install them as soon as they're delivered, and break them in on the nearest trail. I'll let you know how they perform. I'm guessing they will be comparable to Bilstein 5100's.

Sorry guys, I havent been on here in a while. I installed about two moths ago and they are a solid riding, not stiff, shock. Very similar to what I've felt from 5100 and OME. Here is the install video:

Hi OP,

Does anyone have any experience with this kit from Eibach? Thoughts or opinions?

I installed this on our 2013 4runner SR5 3 weeks ago and she rides beautifully. A bit firmer then factory suspension (ours had 180,000km on them) but not too much. As a comparison I'd say factory suspension was 2.5/10 firmness, this is now 5/10. Handling is significantly improved but remember vehicles center of gravity is higher with lift. All in all she handles much better. This suspension is ideal for driving on pavement/gravel with occasional offroading. Offroading performance is much better, soaks up large bumps/potholes 2-3x better then factory suspension.

My advice for this install is ensure lower spring perched aren't reversed when installed and make sure front shock is set to LOWEST setting unless you're carrying extra weight on the front or want your suspension extra stiff. Even then I wouldn't recommend going higher then 2nd perch (instructions also say don't go past 2nd clip).

As for how level the truck is the front passenger side now is perfectly level with rear. Front driver side still 3/4" lower then rear but barely noticeable. This is the same driver side lean we had prior to lift. Rear came up 1". Front came up 2.5" on each side.

This lift looks great and isn't crazy high to look stupid or seek too much attention. Excellent kit, I highly recommend.

265/65R18 Toyo Open country AT2s. Didn't go with 275/285s as this is girlfriend's 4runner and she wanted speedo to be accurate, minimize road noise and maximize fuel economy. Excellent fuel economy in these tires btw.
