I have a 2017 and would love to level out the truck with some springs.

but why the hell did eibach make springs that, after installation, make the front
higher than the back?

simply retarded

I'm pretty sure geisers would be even .5-.75" taller

I have noticed the EXACT same steering wheel slightly to the left deal..... that’s interesting. Thought it was just me.

Finally installed the SPC camber kit: https://www.spcalignment.com/index.php?option=com_spc&task=part_description&pid=86250

Got an alignment yesterday, now my steering wheel is dead straight. Definitely do the same to get that sucker dead centered again.

Question for you guys - Eibachs recommended toe is 0.1 degree and camber -0.4 degree. My shop got it to -0.4 camber on both sides, but were only able to do .01 toe driver side, .02 toe passenger side. Is that going to screw me on tire wear or am I good?

When I asked the guy ringing me up why they didn't hit my specified numbers, he told me when they got it to .1 degree toe on each side, everything else would change so it was the best they could do. Is that BS or legit?

I wish I were smart enough to have measured the top light cutoff line before installing Eibachs and Deaver +3s. The final result was basically ending up with the same rake as stock, ~1" higher in the back. I guess that means I'm close-ish to the correct headlight adjustment as the night I picked her up

I'm about to do eibachs and once icons are not backordered I will receive those as well but in the meantime haha

Wanted to know if the spc lockout kit is a necessity? I'm probably going to get them anyways for offroad reliability. I just want to know what others think about it, that had the eibachs and spc lock outs installed
All info is appreciated

I didn't go threw the 99 page thread but I will be receiving these today. My question is can they be installed without removing the shock assembly? I've done this a number of times with Tacoma's and 4Runners with 700lb Eibach coils. Is there something preventing using this method on the Raptor?

Ok just like previous post a little hard to go through 99 pages. But just purchased these eibachs for my 2018 super crew and a little hesitant to install. Does anyone have actual ground to to fender measurements before and after?

my truck measures about 39 3/4 front and about 40 3/4 inches out back. I really don’t want to put these springs in if they really lift a true 2.5 inches...

Closer to 2.25 on the 17-18. 1.75inch on the 2019 and newer

I’ll post some pictures of my 2018 super cab. I just installed them and it’s perfect. I was hesitant at first too. After install they were a little high in the front but it is settling in nice and level. It firms up the Cornering in the truck. I did Eibachs and 37” KO2’s load range D and it rides amazing! Would totally recommend to anyone. Wish I did it sooner.

If you don’t wanna be nose high ass low then don’t put em on until you decide what you’re going to do in the rear (in other words come up w/ $2k min to buy Deaver/icons & a bump stop solution) period.

that’s the reason mine are sitting on a shelf in the garage. I already know how it’s going to sit based on all these guys calling their nose high trucks level lol! I’m OCD about this stuff & have decided to just wait it out til I can justify/budget Deaver +3/4 HDs & a bump stop kit.
