Eibach Springs! (Finally)

hellasf1 · Friday at 3:27 PM

Is the front for the “level” spring really 1.9? I called Eibach and they said it’s 1.6. I want to do the same as you @ORCowboy bc right now my front is only 1/2 inch lower than the rear.

Waiting on install shop to get make in touch with me, currently looking into the ride height sensor, weather it needs an extension bracket, or just a simple reset. Nobody has the answer

Thats a good question. I’m exactty 1 1/2” front to back and dont mind the rake which is why I was considering the Eibach rears if they add more preload to carry things. The stock rears sag a couple inches with a Costco run, let alone throwing real gear in or hauling stuff. The .75 spacer for the rear would probably be the perfect combo without weight in the bed. I also have an ADD front bumper and lights so more weight up front. Looking forward to some rear springs reviews!

I'm also wanting something to bring the back end up since I carry a few hundred pounds of gear at all times.

Yeah good point. So you have the fronts already installed and you’re sitting 1 1/2 higher up front?

I wonder if mixing the front of Eibach with rears from Geiser rear would be any good.

I personally like Eibach 1000 lbs linear (stocks are linear from what I researched) Geiser has the TRX lean bc of the lower progressive lbs (not compressed) my guess Eibach 1k doesn’t have the lean. On the flip side the rears Eibach is 100-300 progressive and when I reached out they didn’t know when it gets to 300. Geiser- “Rear coils give 240 lbs that increases after the first 2” to 310 lbs versus the stock springs’ 225 lbs and 295 lbs, respectively.”

TRX lean was side to side. Do you mean rake? Like front is lower?

No the TRX lean is the front driver side is lower than the passenger. There is a factory dealer fix which was a heavier spring to compensate for the 33 gallon gas tank. It was on 2021 and earlier 2022 models. I have an early 2022 model and had it fixed. So when I saw Geiser post about the TRX lean on their website I thought about their springs and how it was less lbs as they made them progressive.

Here is a video on it and the fix.

Yea I’m talking about the same thing from driver side to passenger side. Haven’t heard of anyone having the lean after install.
