2019 - NOT LEVEL W/ EIBACHS

[BALLYWOOD007]

So....got a 2019 and had the Eibachs installed at Ford a week ago. Roughly 500km ( Canada) and they appear to be settled in....i think.

The ride is much stiffer which I like, however, my truck isn't level at all. I'm sitting at 41inches in the rear and 42 inches in the front. The truck appears slightly upright from certain angles. From what im hearing, I though that Eibach had adjusted their springs to make 2019 and up Raptors level with their kit.


My issue now is....is my live valve suspension affected in the front (in a negative manner) and do i require to swap out the rear springs to Deavers. The truck seems to be pulling to the right although i had my alignment done with Ford

I want more payload capacity (1200lb payload is a joke) but I dont haul frequently. Need some sound advice how to move forward. Cheers gents.

Have you hauled anything heavy since you mention payload being weak? If so, you may have already flattened your rear springs some. I'm not positive, but I think 41" in the rear is a little low for a stock truck. Maybe someone else can confirm

Mine sits at 42.25+ with just a tonneau on the stock springs after a camping trip where I had about 1000lb in the truck and drove at least 100 miles of various kinds of dirt/rock/wash at a medium level of aggression.

We went camping and I had a bunch of bikes on a rack, a small flat top griddle cooler and a few other odds and ends. I didnt tow anything.

Deaver +3s will make it look right. Then, you might as well go with 37s!

I just measured mine and it was 41.5" in the rear.

-12 offset is going to poke out way past the fenders and look odd on a Raptor. As long as you do not plan to Offroad, it will work, but do not post any pics of 20” wheels with that offset or this site will give you a rash of $&*^

@Oldfart might give you a rash, but the rest of us will give you a ration ...

I ended up in this exact same position when I first did my Eibachs, 1/2" nose high. After 3000+ miles the Eibachs haven't really settled at all. After doing Deaver +3s a month ago I have to say the truck rides simply amazing. Luckily I drive a scab so 35s already look right to me... for now.
