Eibach a good choice for lift?

Looking to do a slight lift on my '21 TRD Pro and Eibach came to mind and found this kit that lifts the front 1.4" and rear 1.0". Part number E30-82-071-04-22. Is anyone on here running this setup? Anything I should know about? I'd like to still use the factory Fox shocks if possible.

 

I’ve had eibach for 2 years now. Absolutely love them. Couldn’t be happier

 

Is the ride quality similar to stock? Any photos just to see how it sits with this setup?

 

I had Eibach stage 1, icon 1.5 3 aal, spc uca's on my Tacoma for about 4yrs. Was completely happy with the ride and handling. Planning on stage 2 for 4Runner.

 

I sent you the pics. The ride quality is great on road and fantastic off road. We’ve off roaded in Moab, Texas and Arizona. Couldn’t be happier.

 

Stock pro (left) vs mine with the Eibach springs (and +200 lbs of permanent weight due to mods)



Front winch+bumper dropped the front by almost 1/2", the rear lost about the same if I remember correctly. So the lift was still 1" front and 1/2" rear

 

Buy them!

 

Can't speak on the PRO lift specifically, but my Eibach adjustable shocks have been fantastic for 100k miles now.

They make good products.

 

My Eibach springs on my 23 Pro have been on since about September of 24. So went from the westcott lift to the Eibach springs 1.4 and 1.0. Love the ride much better and still looks good. It don’t sit as high as the westcott but it has a smoother ride.

 

Good to know! I'm going to install this kit soon. Mine is approaching 200k, so the Eibach should last the rest of the life of the vehicle.

 

If you can spend the extra coin, the Eibach adjustable struts and load leveling kit for the rear are well worth it. I started with the Pro truck and it's a nice kit. Updated to the Pro 2.0R kit and the truck handles like a dream.

 

I just did the Eibach stage 1 and love it. 2.75" front, 1' rear. The best part about it was being able to run 33" tires. This is on an '08 4runner so not sure how that translates to your vehicle, but, I will say on my '08 it looks wayy better in person. For whatever reason, photo's do not do it justice.

 

Well you pretty much confirmed it for me, as I was also debating if I should go with the Westcott using their perches or if I should go Eibach with the springs to get basically the same lift. Seeing that I would have to remove and disassemble the factory springs anyways, I think it would be better to just swap out the springs. Did you notice an improvement over the stock springs during braking or cornering?

 

Yes there is a noticeable difference in cornering. As far as braking I think the Eibach springs keeps it a more firmer in stopping compared to the Pro springs cause you to have a softer ride. So the Eibach springs firms it up and still get a smooth ride. But also with me running 285’s and a wider wheel my Pro handles very well especially when I driving it hard on the back roads. Hope this helps. I have no regrets switching to the springs over the spacers.

Also this is the second time I have done the springs. Had them on my 20 AG Pro and same set up with the wheels and tires. I just decided to try the westcott this time around but still went back to the springs.

 

@RusPro17 are you on factory UCA’s? Technically this 2.4” over a base 4R which bare the same UCA’s. Thanks.

 

Yes I am on factory UCA’s.

 

Good to know this as well, that was my next question. Did you do the spring install yourself or had a shop do it? I'm debating if I should tackle it myself...

 

I have my own mechanic with his shop. He did both lifts and removed them and also did the alignment. I have a great mechanic. It’s definitely easier just doing the springs.

 

I'm happy with my Eiback setup. I believe it's the coilovers 2.0 and load leveling kit in the rear with medium spring rate. JBA uca's.

 

Thank you sir. Here in lies my dilemma, upgrade the springs to 1.4/1 and keep the Fox, or go Eibach 2R or Dobs.

I want a little more firmness than the Fox offers.

 

Can u post the kit?
