Soooo eibachs or collards on my 2019??
I tell people this;

If you like the super plush ride of the factory springs stick with collars

if you hate the boat like ride and all the nose diving, go springs

the springs are linear so the rate is constant throughout which isn’t much more than stock rate, so it’s still soft but since it’s not progressive it doesn’t vary throughout suspension cycle

So to keep the plush ride go collars? I still want the performance of the suspension on road and off. This is my daily so looking for the best ride wich is why I bought the truck

It depends on what your goals are and how much height you want.

The difference in ride quality between an Eibach truck or a truck with 1.5" collars...negligible. You're not going to be able to tell a difference.

But maybe you're going to add Deaver or Icon springs to the rear of the truck and raise the rear, maybe you want some more height in the front so you want a 2.25" collar from RPG, SVC, Icon, etc. Really just depends on what your ultimate goals are.

currently running Icon collars, dont recall what setting but I think its 2.25, truck almost seems to sit higher in front. I'd like to swap for the Eibach springs and plan to do Icon leaf springs at some point as well.

moving to Utah in May so my offroading will align to the terrain out there (descriptive right?) I enjoy the plush ride currently but I do notice some nose dive when I push the truck through a turn, wouldnt mind a little more poised reaction. also looking to maintain offroad performance as much as possible....so swap the collars for springs?

If you're planning to add Icon springs, I wouldn't change a thing. You'll raise the rear and the front will no longer seem nose high.

Have Eibachs upfront on my ‘19, planning to run 37x12.5x20 on VenomRex 601’s. Not planning to jump or any major off-roading. Is it recommended to change up the rear springs and bump stops?
Thanks!

The upgraded springs will have the truck ride better on and off-road. If you're not planing to off-road, no need for aftermarket bump stops. You'll just need the extensions for the OEM bumps so they remain functional upgraded leaf springs and removable of the OEM blocks.

Thanks Nick! So I need to get the bump stop extensions, replace springs with something like Deavers +3 and remove the OEM REAR BLOCKS?
