Eibach Pro Truck stage 2 kit received

[Mtnman1]

Got the Eibach Pro Truck Stage 2 kit delivered today. Decided against the 2R since I do not need the fancy Res. Rears.

Looking for a 2 in level up front. Will be installing next weekend.

For those that have installed these front coilovers - how much have they settled for you? Thinking of initial setting of 2.25 inches to account for the settle.

Following this. I have my kit on order. Hopefully will arrive before to long. Let us know how the install goes and pictures of what 2” does! I’m tossed between 2” and 2.5”. I don’t haul or tow much and want a fully leveled look.

My front coilovers arrived Wednesday. I’m still waiting one rear shock that was on back order and should arrive Monday, I got the fronts installed this evening. It wasn’t too bad of a chore the second side definitely took less time than the first one. It took me about 4 hours total from start to finish from starting to get tools out to everything cleaned up. One thing the instructions must be for an older model they aren’t quite right on some items. But the concept is still the same. The lower strut bolts I was unable to pound them out so ended up just cutting them off with a sawzall. Other than that, pretty straightforward. All I can say about the ride is oh my word I never knew a 2021 f150 could ride so good. It was worth every penny and every ounce of effort it took to put them on. It’s a night and day difference and I haven’t even got the rear shocks done yet. My truck has 95,000 miles and was still on factory shocks.

All done. Suspension, tires, alignment.
Did not adjust out of box. Pretty much 2.5" as Eibach states. Did get the allignment done. Will wait a week or so for everything to settle and check again. Might adj. down a tad if it does not settle much. Im thinkin it should be closer to 2" after some miles. As it sits, rear is a bit over 1/4" higher than the front.

Toyo open country LT285/70/17. Stock wheels. Tons of room. 285/75/17 will fit easy.

The difference between the Eibach and stock FX4 is amazing. Very noticeble difference. Still firm like stock, but no where near as harsh.

Only got about 80 miles on it....but took normal route. MPG will be 1-2 mpg worse than stock. Was getting over 21mpg......hopefully will stay on the good side of 20.
