Eibach Pro-truck lift

Can one of the Eibach gentlemen tell me how long the rear shock is at full extension please?

Specifically from the center of the lower eye hole to where it meets the frame.

I don’t have access to drawings from home. Call Tanner Monday at 951-256-8300. Just say I sent you.
 
Can you give us any detail as to what the upgrades are with the 2.0 coil overs?

It’s a coilover over, so adjustable ride height. These use our racing springs so you can choose spring rate. Includes a CNC too mount. The valving a little more aggressive for the dirt.

Hi, all.

I recently purchased a 2014 TE (upgraded from a 3rd gen) that had an Eibach lift already installed with 285-70-17 Nitto Terra Grapplers. I do 99% of my driving on the highway but do often end up doing light to moderate off road stuff just to get to trailheads for backpacking trips and the like. I was worried about the lift and tires but so far I've been pretty pleased. I purchased in FL and drove home to OH so that was a good test!

Anyways, I have perused this thread, but am having trouble piecing information together since it's so long. What should I be looking at/for in order to determine what "settings" this lift is on? Sorry for what is probably such a noob question. I keep seeing things about clips, etc. Just not sure what I'm looking for. I'd like to have a decent handle on what exactly has been installed and the specs surrounding it. Thanks for any information you can give me!

After months of research on what would work best for my family hauler I finally pulled the trigger on the Eibach kit. Had been torn between this and a dobinson's 2"/1" kit but sided with this one. I had eibach pro springs on my '99 civic SI back in highschool and loved the ride, hoping for the same quality with this one!

Looking forward to the kit
 
I just pulled the trigger on this kit from Wheeler Offroad. Paid $759 with the kit assembled using a discount code that popped up on their site for first time buyers. This will be going on my wife's 2016 SR5 Premium in Black. Can't wait!!:rockon:

You won't be disappointed. I have a 2016 sr5 that was on a spacer lift and i can confirm the ride has tremendously improved after install. I did leave my 1" cornfed spacers in the rear and it makes the truck level.

Funny thing is I had a 2000 Civic Sir (Si in the US) and loved the ride.

Honda guy here too :bigok:
 
This might be a dumb question but I am trying to see if I can piece the kit together for cheaper than buying complete kit (E80-82-071-01-22).

My question is are the quantities correct or do the springs come in pairs so only need one of each of those part numbers?

(2) Pro-Truck Lift Front Springs (E30-82-071-01-20)
(2) Pro-Truck Lift Rear Springs (E30-82-071-01-02)
(2) Pro-Truck Sport Front Shocks (E60-82-071-02-10)
(2) Pro-Truck Sport Rear Shocks (E60-82-008-02-01)

Also does anyone happen to have pictures of a 5th gen offroad with this kit installed and stock size falken wildpeak tires by chance? I have stock size wildpeaks on my 19 TRD OR and dont want to install this kit right now if it will look weird with stock size tires.

30k mile update...

TL;DR version: Buy with confidence.

Still love this set up and think it's great for many of us who use this as a daily driver but still like to get the truck dirty as often as they can. I have a hefty commute so I've done this 30k miles with the Pro Truck lift kit from Eibach in about 1 year's time (I got the "standard" version... I haven't read this whole thread and I know some variations are now out there). My offroading is more forest service roads and some of the Appalachian Mountains... mostly tame stuff and can only think of less than 5 rides where I needed the extra clearance I got from stock. I wish I could venture out and do more, but sadly, life gets in the way.

Again, I'm very satisfied. I'm running XD wheels ($100 a piece on clearance) 17X9 with an aggressive offset, but only stick out less than 1/2 inch from the fender flares, and these are paired with Falken Wildpeak 275s. Even with only the 275s, the aggressive wheels necessitated the BMC. No big deal, my shop did a great job with the pre-fabbed plates and the welding. I also replaced the original UCAs with JBA UCAs. Those things don't like to hold grease in the ball joint, so I have to hit them at least every 5k miles.

My only issue, and I would certainly not say this was caused by the Eibach lift, is that I had to replace the sway bar bushings from the KDSS system. They were shot, and you could feel the clunking from that in every bump, especially in the 10-30mph range. I have no idea if these just wear out normally in a stock set up, or if the geometry changes by lifting the truck caused some quicker wear to those bushings. Regardless, it didn't bother me, although it did take some troubleshooting time to diagnose even though the bushings are in plain sight. The bushings were like $20 a piece and about $150 to replace. I'm a very limited wrencher, so I left that to the experts since you have to strap the system to take tension off it in order to replace those bushings (no thanks). My lift was installed with around 82k miles on the truck and the bushings were replaced at around 104k miles. I'm at 112k miles now.

This was a great set up for me. I get compliments all the time on the lift, wheels, and tires. The on road manners are a huge improvement from stock and it has paired very well with the KDSS (note, I don't have comparisons to make for trucks without KDSS running this set up). Can't wait to hit the 200k mile mark on my truck. Any questions, just ask.
 
Took a few tries but here are some recent shots. In the bottom image, the front wheels are in a small depression if it looks like it's sitting kinda funny.

^^Truck looks great! Those rims give your 275's a great stance.

Looking at your sig...I here opinions both ways on adding new UCAs.
