Would be curious to see if they come out with both 600lb and 700lb spring ratings for these.

Talked to a friend of mine, engineer at Eibach. Said for avid off-roaders, this one is better than the 2R

I'm very interested in this. So tired of the popping and moaning that my 2.5" leveling pucks make.
One question: Do they provide a different spring rate for the heavier Powerboosts or possibly just reuse the OEM ones? Just adding more spring preload might correct the ride height but doesn't correct the spring rate.
Please advise.

I'd expect them be quite a bit cheaper than King or Fox 2.5" shocks, probably somewhere between their 2.0" kit and what retail is on the big 3 shock manufactures 2.5" kits. There's no external dampening adjustment, no front reservoirs, black nitride shafts vs chrome plated, and looks to be a proprietary coil spring.

A heavier spring is possible, but you may have to buy separately unless Eibach decides to package with a heavier spring for a PB with a different part number. These use a Beehive style spring, but different spring rates are available. We ended up having to drop 100 lbs in rate from what they started with to get a decent ride and room to adjust the ride height within something comparable to the Stage 2.

Sorry for the delay! We are actually still waiting for full price confirmation on them. However from what we know we are expecting these to be around the $800~ price range.

We will for sure have some Eibach on sale! However, the new 3R kits and/UCAs will not be part of any BF Sales. This is confirmed from our Rep at Eibach. But, reach out anytime if you are looking at any other Eibach products and we can get some details to you!

A quick update for those that have asked for pricing; 3R kits re expected to have a price point of around $2,500 for the full kit. Its a pretty decent size jump from the 2Rs, but from what we have seen they will be a solid offering for those needing some higher performance out of their suspension.
A couple a key notes we gained from talking to the team during SEMA was the ride quality. They feel they have achieved virtually the same ride quality of the 2R kits and was able to put that into the new 3R kits. Being able to offer the best of both worlds!

Curious how these might compare to the Falcon/Terraflex adjustable kits?

Powerboost here, curious if the 3R would provide any additional lift over the 2R while maintaining ride quality. The truck is a pavement queen; looking for max lift without going full suspension, but maintaining on-road ride quality. Thanks

I spoke with an engineer there, he said the 2R is better for road drives, the 3R is more for the offroader.
