    Looking at getting the Eibach pro lift kit. I want about 2.5 up front and an inch or two in the back. I see the back is up to 1” with the kit but also see the 3 aal might give me more height. I’ve read most of the other threads on this topic comparing to the 5110s and 6112. Where is the best place to purchase this assembled coil and strut with the aal? Best price and customer service? Any help is much appreciated.

    Wheeler's Off Road should have an assembled kit with add a leaf option. If you get the stage 1 2.0 kit with the threaded adjustment instead of the clips it will come assembled. The original stage 1 you need the top hats and hardware from your old coil overs. I had wheelers assemble mine there was no upcharge for assembled vs unassembled and all the extra parts were included.

    Check Headstrong Off Road also. They may be better to deal with my buying experience from Wheelers was "odd" so to speak

    I just purchased the Eibach stage 1 lift pre assembled at first setting 2" front with the HS 3 leaf AL 1.5" rear from Headstrong, I got it delivered in 3 days. I am having it installed on Thursday. I will post a shot after install.

    They say the Add a leaf is 1.5-2” and the 3 leaf is 1.5. I did the 3 leaf because I have a shell and a sleeping platform.

    Here's a pic of mine. Set on first clip setting currently on a 1" rear block. I'm going Icon springs in the rear I think and maybe to position 2 but probably not until next Spring I've spent enough on this damn truck this year lol. Sitting on 265/70-17 Ultra terrains and KMC 17x8.5 0 offset wheels. After settling I ended up somewhere between 1.5 and 1.75 on the front. I have 5000 miles on the lift, no issues. Installed everything myself in about 4 hours on a garage floor no lift

    Just had my Eibach stage 1 (first clip) with 3 leaf add a leaf installed this week. I had my 265/75/16 Good Year ultra terrains installed today. Really like it so far! It looks low in the rear due to the parking lot!

    Looking good man. The more I research I think I’m going with the Eibach stage 2 kit. Just not sure what to do to the rear

    Thanks! I thinks that a good choice! I just didn't have the need for stage 2. Call headstrong and they will assist you with the options and what your needs are.

    The more I see the oem roof rack the more I like it and that two tone you have going on looks really good as well.
    It comes out to about the same price as the shocks assembled and the leaf pack for the stage 2. The adjustability on it looks great but I’m not too keen on running a block in the back

    Thanks James, It is bed-liner! I drive a lot of fire roads in the sierras when I am out shooting photos and it helps protect the paint. You can do the add-a-leaf for about 70 dollars. at Headstrong.

    How much did your truck settle and how long did it take?

    I installed the Stage 1 on the highest clip (I have a bumper and winch) last Friday and took it for a good flexing and 55 mile gravel road run this weekend...it is currently only sitting maybe a 1/4" less that the 3"it was after install. I am considering dropping it because it is totally level with my rear end (1.75" add a leaf) and I will look like I am dragging my rear end when I load my hunting gear in the back and add a rear bumper.

    I just checked it's at 1.75" and it was about 2-1/4 when I lifted it. I think it took about 500 miles to totally settle in. So roughly 1/2"

    I have the Eibach pro lift 2
    AAL In the rear the truck sit level with at about 2 inches of lift.
    Love the suspension so far, not a single complaint!70F23034-F1E3-4438-9E75-04464ACCAA56.jpg02B82EB2-3586-478B-93CD-8951181B1D0A.jpg

    I have my Eibach pro lift kit ready to be installed and a u-bolt flip kit / with durobumps ready to go. What width spacer plate do I need to offset the taco lean I’m anticipating AND are kyb strut mounts advised vs the existing hardware that would used along with what Eibach provided?

    Mine came assembled with KYB mounts but the stock stuff should be fine. I used a 1/4” spacer
