So I FINALLY inastalled the Eibach front springs....wish that I did it last year! Raises the front a bit nose high at first but already settling to level stance. It really firms the ride up front....almost *too* firm at first, but it has seemed to soften a bit as the springs break in (or I'm getting used to it). But for looks alone, I recommed these springs, just remember to drop your perches back to the lowest (stock) level before reinstalling. Will post pics soon for those who are on the fence!

^Island Time! Lol....thanks, man!

OK, I cannot take a decent photo to save my life, but here's a few shots to show how the truck sits after Eibach install:

It has a slight nose high stance which bugged me at first but frankly I now kinda like the Baja/Trophy truck stance.....and the springs have settled a fair amount since the install a few months ago. I also installed a new set of (stock) shocks and the ride is great....controlled and smooth....very little nosedive on hard braking. Overall I'm very pleased.....wholeheartedly recommend the Eibachs!

Are these springs physically longer vs stock springs? Or is it just the spring rate that levels the truck?
