I hated the nose dive as well. This kit helped a lot with that. It basically eliminated it. It feels a lot better all around. The ride quality is very good.

Always subjective, but I feel it at least reduced it. Driving normal, no dive. Hard brake, yeah, a little (dealing with physics and weight). Worked well on Miller Trail.

Depending on where you are in So Cal, could always offer a ride and let you determine your feelings on it.

I have been running this lift for several months and am STOKED with the look and performance. 2.75” front 1” rear, stock UCAs camber/ alignment in spec. Driving feels tighter without being harsh, way less floaty feeling. Steering was improved, slightly quicker and more responsive. HUGE difference over rolling bumps in the desert. I was bracing to bottom out but all hits were absorbed with confidence and I felt very much in control even at higher speeds. I spent close to a year researching what coils to pair with what shocks and whether to get UCAs or not. Called Eibach directly and they explained the shocks and coils of the Pro-Truck lift are designed together to work with OEM parts. This made much more sense than trying to piece together one brand of shocks hoping they work with a certain coil. Had it installed at their Corona facility by the people that were part of the kit’s development (they didn’t need to read the instructions). Highly recommended

Just found this thread. 4th Gen. I’ve ordered the components from Wheelers without the rear coils as I’ve inherited a pair of 2” icons. Won’t mind a little forward take if I go with 2.75 up front. 18” rims. Trying to decide max tire size. I’m thinking 265/75’s without trimming?

Maybe you can answer this question LandCruiser? I currently have Bilstien 5100’s front and rear. Can I buy just the Eibach coils front and rear to achieve the same lift specs as the advertised Eibach Spring/Shock combo?

The Eibach front shock looks identical to the 5100’s. So... would I achieve the same lift using the lowest setting on the 5100’s? I don’t want the rear end to sag if the 5100’s on the lowest setting will give it a higher front lift if the shock is different from the Eibach’s

Thanks!

Interested in this lift kit as well - would love to hear more feedback from anyone with experience.

Which groove is everyone setting their lift to? Also are people using the bottom bushing that comes with the kit in the top hat and removing the factory one? Thanks in advance.

I've been running these shocks and front coils since April 2016 and the ride is still amazing after 20k miles of terrible pot-holed Honolulu roads and volcanic rocky trails. As I wrote before, I only used OME 895E coils in the rear because Eibach hadn't made them yet back then. I'm actually selling my current 15' Trail for a 18' ORP in the next few weeks and have already ordered this kit to go on the new rig.

Set the shock clip to bottom if using the included coil. As for the top hat bushings included, yes replace the OEM ones. It's kind of a PITA but definitely worth replacing.

Eibach ProTruck-Kit FTW

I just confirmed the spring rates are 660 lb/in. front and 205 lb/in rear.

The Eibach coils will work with an OE shape extended travel shock like the 5100’s. That being said the 5100’s and Pro-Truck shocks are NOT the same (though they look similar) so ride heights will likely be different.

I'm really close to pulling the trigger on these. Autoanything has them for $672.54 Free Ship. If I can get Bilsteinlifts to match it, I may go with them to have the front springs pre- installed for the extra $100.
Any problems installing w/KDSS? Did you have any lean after install?
Thanks

No problems just longer install time and thankfully no lean. Here's the install video:

This is what I was told as well from Eibach which would in theory make the front stiff since its's the same spring rate as the OME heavy coils designed for a steel bumper and winch but it honestly doesn't feel stiff at all to me. Anyone else want to chime in with their experience with this kit and it's ride quality?

I did watch your video you had on another post. Thanks for sharing. Looks like he mention that he put a 1/2 “ spacer if I remember correctly. Does that sound right? If so Was that for compensating the lean?

No the 1/2" top plate spacer was to give it a full 3" lift
