Eibach needs a stock TRD PRO in SoCal

[TRD PANTHER]

I think it looks much better without the spacers. Nice truck

I completely agree with Horizon. A 285 on the SEMA wheel puts the tire where it should be. The Pro wheels look great and the 7” width factor has never been a problem for myself or anyone else I have ever heard of that run a 285. You can use your mudflaps and do not have to do any trimming on the front fender with the Pro with this combination. Looks good.

Had this lift installed for a week and I want to say I love it. Love the way it drives and love the way it looks. I've never installed a lift that I didn't find something wrong with it, but this lift is perfect for my needs. Now the long term ramifications of the Fox shocks are not known.

Looks perfect! So all you did was install the springs and 285's then go for alignment? No UCA's, no BMC, no trimming the bumper? Do you know what your caster numbers are? I'm hoping it's that easy for my lift too.

No UCA's. No trimming of any kind. All I did was add the springs, then the 285’s, went for an alignment and then remove the spacers because it was rubbing. They were able to get 2.4* for caster. Toe and camber were in spec. It drives straighter than it did from the showroom. I’m very happy with how it turned out. No idea if it will need trimming once I see it flex off road.

Springs for me are supposed to come in this Friday it looks like and plan on getting them installed a week from with some armor going on mine.

Will probably try to get a couple hundred miles on it and a week or two and then align it once it has settled a bit. Glad to hear you were able to get to 2.4 for caster without UCAs.

I'm figuring a set of Total Chaos may be in my future but would like to hold off for a bit if possible.

Anyone with a low pro and a winch or an heavier front bumper running this setup?

Just had my 285’s installed today. Added the Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Loving the look.

Here is some pics. Added my SCS wheels and no rubbing. Removed front mudflaps. Planning on adding the Rockbloz flaps.

So I got the Rokblokz mudflats because I did not want to have any clearance issues. The problem is that my rear passenger flap started to warp and look shiny close to the TRD Pro exhaust. Ended up contacting them and they send me two new ones for 10 dollars shipping. I ended up just cutting the warped area off the original and matched the other side. Hope that helps

Thank Horizon, Yeah the thing I don’t like about the Toyota oem flap. I removed my Tacoma ones years ago when I had it and put the Rockbloz on. The Toyota ones cut into the paint and rub. The back don’t seem to do that. I only see marks on my front one. But thanks for the info.

For sure. That was another major consideration for changing them for me as well. Now that the Rokblokz’s are modified I like how they look and no more warping and much better than no flaps at all I scored and snapped with a blade and sanded the edges after. Happy with the end result.

You also have the Rockbloz on the front correct? So if I get the Rockbloz I will need to do that to the rear correct?

Yes I installed them in front and back. And yes I would recommend cutting prior to installing them at the back to avoid the warping. I cut the bottoms so they are just below the exhaust and cut the sides where the warping happened on the right side. It’s where the exhaust hits the flap when it exits the exhaust.

The set is out of stock on Eibach's site, have to call to place order.

Looking to add sliders & aluminum skids to our 2020 Pro. Anyone have these springs with these mods? [MENTION=186984]RusPro17[/MENTION] appears to have sliders.

Curious how the added weight impacts these springs. I have wanted to eliminate the rake and have the Westcott kit bookmarked but really want to avoid spacers.

I'm running them with a full set of RCI aluminum skids (including the gas tank skid) and Victory 4x4 Blitz aluminum sliders (around 70 pounds). I had the springs installed at the same time as all of the armor and did not grab before and after measurements (which I should have in retrospect), but I definitely am leveled out pretty nicely and the lift is still noticeable.

Honestly, the only thing that I think could push you back towards rake with this lift would be a relatively heavy front bumper setup. I need to grab some pictures; have not had a good opportunity to get any as stuff just went on last Thursday.

So far I have been very happy with the spring lift. My 285’s clear with no issues rubbing. Also note I’m running 8.5 inch wheel also. My Tyger steps look like sliders but technically there not. But they have held up very well. They really protect the side of the 4runner especially parked next to someone. They really help to prevent door dings. If you talk to any mechanic most will tell you the springs are the better way to go than spacers.

Thank you ! I was recently on Victory’s website but didn’t notice they made aluminum sliders. I will check them out.

Hadn’t thought about door ding protection. That is worth the cost for decent steps or sliders.

Only if its from cars. Most SUV's are tall enough to clear them. Well maybe not with the Eibach springs and 285's.
