Geisers, Icons, and 37s

[Sunder]

Recieved my springs, now debating on powdercoating them red or blue along with tow hooks

Please post pictures if you get them done. Also curious on price. I have Geiser’s inbound also and debating powder coating. I have the Blue Flame color and just think that would be cool.

I saw in another thread a member had gotten orange coated springs from Eibach. They looked awesome. Unfortunately mine came stock gray ha! But they still ride great.

Also I had a sale fall through on my Geiser take offs, so those are still for sale. Shoot me a PM if interested.

Is the front end the same height with the Eibachs?

Can you post some pics of your truck with the Eibachs ?

I’ve posted a pic of them both nose to nose

How are you liking the 37s? Looking at going to them but have read mix reviews. Thanks

@Glefevre87 sorry for the late reply. I like the 37s, they run a little stiffer than the stock KO2s but I think that's largely due to load rating. As per the actual off road drivers here [I'm mostly pavement and Starbucks], trying to do serious off-roading with 37s will likely require new fenders, etc.

Speaking of 37s, I'm getting some suspension done at TMX at the end of this month. I'll be going from Deaver +2 to Deaver +3 springs. The current set of Deaver +2s has about 4k miles on them. I'll post a FS when they come off and I get pics, but PM me in the meantime if anyone is interested.

Also might sell my Eibachs up front if I can find a set of front stock springs for cheap. I'm installing King 3.0s and want to have a fallback set of springs in case I part the truck out some day before selling.

My Mickey Thompson mtz 37s ride smoother and softer than the oem tires.

From everything I’ve researched they are both great springs. Eibach had a rocky start with the spring rate being 588 or something but after they dropped to 548(ish) they have been great.

Never heard of anyone complain about Geisers. From what I’ve been told the reason the price is so different is simply because Eibach manufactures in a huge warehouse making several hundreds/thousands a batch, while Geiser only makes a few hundred a batch.

I simply went with Eibach due to the price point and want to buy lights in the near future.

I dont think most people on here are aware that Geiser most likely doesnt manufacture their own springs, I can almost guarantee that Eibach or another major spring manufacturer makes their springs for them. That is dedicated spring making equipment and I honestly doubt Geiser owns those machines. Also I can pretty much guarantee that Deaver also manufacturers Icons leaf springs, again same deal. Deaver is an old business with old equipment and they have been making springs for a long, long time. It looks like a Blacksmith shop in there and again I HIGHLY doubt IVD has that type of equipment on hand to manufacture their own springs.

I can vouch for the Deaver/Icon thing. I've read numerous times that Deaver's warehouse manufactures Icon springs in the same batch with just rebranding the name and a different powder coat or something like that. I have absolutely no doubts about the quality of Geiser springs quality... I mean, any company with a pretty website must have a good product, right?! Jokes aside, you're probably right and I wouldn't be surprised if Eibach is a Geiser co-packer.
