I've been eyeballing this for front and rear on my 17 SR5.
Bought it with 1½" spacers on top of the coilover in front giving me, I think, 2½" lift.
The truck is level so I'm assuming there's spacers in back too.
I want to remove the spacers and replace with a correct suspension.
My main question is planning for aftermarket bumpers in the future. 250 lb coils in the rear with less preload for now?
I'd like to keep the current ride height I have now.

I was in the same boat. I'd give up on Stage 3 if I were you. I gave it a few weeks, told different "reasons" every time I finally got a reply. Impossible to get anyone on the phone. Takes some time to get your money back too. Good luck, I feel for you.

I didn't realize how many horrible reviews they had until I looked around. Seems like many of these online sellers will take your money even if something isn't in stock.

@mark@eibach
Mark, good morning.
I have a 2012 4runner limited running the Eibach pro truck lift kit1.0. I want to upgrade to the 2.0 coil overs and the height adjustable rears.

My question is what if anything in the rear is the same? Or do I need a whole new set up there too?
I have about 100#s I carry in rear and am looking to get a roof rack and low pro front bumper/winch at some point.
What do you suggest?
Thank you,
Dave

PS: Isn’t there a discount code for T4R members?

I’m exciting and will post pics as soon as I get it all installed.
Nice! I'll pass this along to Tanner. I wish this wasn't how you had to work the system, but these days, you just have to get it wherever you can find inventory. We're doing our best to keep up with demand and get you guys product as quickly as possible. We are looking at this DAILY and doing our best to provide answers and customer support wherever we can.

The 250lb rear spring is a great balance of rate and comfort with a range of adjustment that works in your weight range. You're on the right track.

The load leveling system in the rear uses a different spring, but the same rear shock. So you could remove all the front and sell that and the rear lift spring separately, or remove the entire kit and do the Stage 2 with Load Leveling which includes rear shocks. My thought is that you'll get the most back in the used market with a complete kit rather than a kit missing the rear shocks. If you can wait until the end of the year, our Resi rear shocks will be available.

Well I spoke to soon and the last shipment of the rear load leveling kit didn’t arrive and FedEx said it may be lost and I need to follow up with Eibach to file the claim. Hopefully this works out and the kit isn’t back ordered again...🙃 (scheduled delivery was Friday 4/9, package left the facility on 4/7 and is 6 hours from where I live, based on the other Eibach items I’ve gotten it usually take me only 1-2 days for delivery)

So, when is the 3.0... three inch plus, hit the market? Currently on the Pro 1.0, looking hard at the adjustable rears, but would like a fully adjustable 3" set up. Just saying.

Hi Mark, most other lifts require a spacer for KDSS trucks to correct the KDSS lean caused by a lift. I did not see any mention of KDSS on the Eibach 2.0 kit—what should we do?

I’ve kdss and I left both front coilovers set to the same. I adjust for level with half tank of gas. You’ll always have some lean depending on fuel, load or passengers. Parking on the slightest slope will give a different measurement as well. Get it close. Get it aligned. And drive it.

That explains why one wasn’t included. I may end up trying to make one myself.

Seems to me the curve of the spanner should match the diameter of the preload adjuster part. It does not.

Haven't gottten around to installing yet, going to be very displeased if the latest spanner won't turn the adjusters.
My only complaint with these was the spanner wrench. I got these last July and the supplied wrenchs suck, cheap and they bend. Punch set came in real handy.
One thing an Eibach tech guy told me and was spot on. 12 threads adjustment = 1" of lift / drop
I needed drivers side up 1/2" and 6 threads were spot on

Ha! Video 39 second marker. Most everyone here and Eibach told me measuring from the bottom of the rim is wrong... but the video shows this guy from Eibach does it as well.
For those that say well tire height matters..yep for comparing vehicle to vehicle... do the math, measure your rim and divide by 2, that gives you center of rim and subtract half the rim diameter off your measurement. Unless you got a laser its hard to get center the hub...bottom of rim = zero error

Update on my order: after the first set of rear Springs/leveling kit got lost Jared at Eibach worked with their shipping dept to set up another rear kit to get sent out to me(the first kit was shipped out April 9th but FedEx lost it, it package took a trip to Florida...) I received the rear kit Wednesday April 21st along with the package that made its way to Florida, I’m sending the extra kitback now and I’m hoping to install in one of the upcoming weekends. I just want to give another shout out to the team at Eibach. Yes a package was lost but that was out of their hands. When I called Eibach they were upfront about when products were being manufactured and shipped out. They solved the missing package problem quickly and didn’t hesitate to send out a new kit. They were easy to get a hold of(waaay better than Jegs or Summit imo) and fixed the problem quickly.

I’m looking forward to the install and hope the product turns out to be a win.

Ordered this on Black Friday and still waiting. I really hope this kit is worth the wait... Eibach was definitely unprepared for the demand of this kit.

I highly recommend calling Eibach they were very upfront and got my order out quick.
