Anyone have the Eibach TRD-PRO-LIFT on their Pro?

Getting these things installed tomorrow! I'm stoked! I will post some before & after pics as well as measurements.

 

Hurry so I can decide already.

 

I'm headed home now to measure the damn thing!

 

Ok, as it sits now measurements.....center of hub to fender flares...

Left front - 23-3/4"
Right front - 23-5/8"
Left rear - 23-5/8"
Right rear - 24"

After 1-1/2" front lift and 1" rear lift, it will be at...

Left front - 25-1/4"
Right front - 25-1/8"
Left rear - 24-5/8"
Right rear - 25"

Ever so slightly nose-high, but should settle in and be pretty close to level. Despite what Eibach told me today, the 2-1/2" springs would have made it VERY nose-high. I'm glad I got the 1-1/2" springs and my anxiety is calmed for now.

 

Done. Before and after. Subtle difference, but it looks better now.

 

So nice

 

How’s the ride?

 

Front is about 1/4" higher than the rear as expected by the tape measure.

The 2-1/2" springs would have the nose pointed at the sky.

 

Plusher than stock. Very surprised and happy.

 

Good to know. Will be the next pro on Eibach 1.5” F and 1” R

 

I have no idea what was wrong with Eibach's test truck to have them say the 2-1/2" levels with the 1" rear. There's no way this is true - it's almost like they were using a non-Pro without the 1.1" already up front.

 

emerson’s pro front settled a bit with the 2.5”

 

They would have to settle a LOT! At least on my truck. The tech at Eibach told me they'll only settle a few millimeters.

 

I just wish he would have turned the struts 180 degrees so this spring end is out of sight inside the coil bucket.

 

Found this picture in the advertisement for the 3" lift on Toyota's website. I guess it's normal for the spring end to be facing out like that...I've just never seen it (or noticed it) before.

 

Dont know if they still do this or not but most of my local Auto part stores will let you use their spring compressors for like 5$ bucks.
It's probably gone up since the last time I needed one.

 

I’ve used autozone loaner for many years. I like having my own set now.

 

Did anyone try doing westcott pre collar lift with the eibach spring?

 

There's no need for this.

 

Additional lift hight

 

Need additional 1.5" for astatic look lol

 

Yeah, I wouldn't do that. The Eibach's are engineered with the proper spring rate, etc. for the factory Fox dampeners. Compressing them even more with a spacer is going to destroy any ride quality if not destroy actual components.

 

great looking truck! I have the westcott kit in my garage but just recently came across this option and it sounds like it this may be the better option as far as keeping the ride quality goes. Eibach also told me the same about recommending the 2.5” kit, so I’m glad I found this post..

still love it after it’s been a few months ?

 

curious if you ended up installing the eibach coils. If so, can you share any pics ?

 

I have not yet

 

I thought you were selling them?

 

Selling the 2.5” front coils. I’ll install the 1.5” eventually

 

Curious if you ended up installing the 2.5 inch kit, and if so can you share any pics / feedback on the front nose height?

Eibach and my local off road shop are both telling me that the 2.5 kit is for the lift / level where as the 1.5inch to more to level the front and leave rear alone.

 

Eibach told me the 2.5" spring is for trucks with heavy aftermarket bumpers/winches. I don't have one, so I went with 1.5" up front and 1" in the rear. My truck sits dead-nuts level.

 

Thanks for confirming. I’m also looking at running the RT Trails. Are those 35x12.50 on yours?

I have a 2024 Pro and pulled some quick dimensions and for whatever reason, mine seems to sit lower in the front by 1.5 inches. Was looking at your dimensions, and they looked closer to level to start out. It’s kinda throwing me off bc with mine it almost sounds like the eibach recommendation of the 2.5 might work.

I guess it really is truck specific, but you would think same model / trim would be very close.
