    Exactly. The discussion here is Eibach springs for the new Pro, not a general Eibach lift, which also includes new shocks. @tn4runner - if there are new 'noises' after the Eibach (springs & shocks or just shocks?) installation, it's either a bad installation or a defective shock, but not likely due to springs, if you had springs installed, which we don't know.

    I have the ORP with kdss, I’m using eibach kit without UCA , it was fine for about a month or 2 and then the rear start making noise over the bump, and later then the front start making noise like metal hitting metal when over the bump or turning steering wheel. I didn’t think that using aftermarket part worst than my stock suspension,

    This is a completely different kit than what the OP is asking about... which is specific to the TRD pro and retains the factory fox shocks.

    On My 2020 TRD pro the Eibach are perfect, the one thing that was mentioned to me was to pay close attention to the front one to make sure that they are installed with the Eibach Name right side up and that they are clocked correctly otherwise they will "chatter"

    The redesigned perch of the 2021 and 2022 made it pretty hard to put the, on upside down. If by clocked you mean rotated, the perch basically made that easy as well.

    Yes true However if you read what year tn4runner said his 4Runner is (2020) that is before the "Redesign" and you can slap em in upside down and you can incorrectly clock them also.

    Anyone have any updates on how they are liking/disliking their Eibach springs on their TRD Pro 4Runners? I’m about ready to pull the trigger on them but want a bit more information/feedback before I do.

    Thanks!!

    I love mine. The ride is pretty much as smooth as the stock suspension. Very impressed with the springs.
    I wanted to retain a comfortable ride and this definitely checked off all the boxes + I was able to fit 285's with no rubbing.

    Do you feel like there was a change in spring rates at all? Or does it feel just like stock?
    Thanks again!!

    The eibach springs are the same (600lb/in) rate as the stock springs, something to consider if you're adding any extra weight to the truck.

    About 3 months. The springs are $400 for front and rear.

    Other than maybe a lo pro bumper and/or Magnuson S/C, I don’t plan on adding much…
