Just keep in mind that more basic hydro white- and black-body shocks usually have a specific orientation.
Thanks for your input Jason. I just ordered a pair of front struts w/o springs for my 2wd Ranger. I'm hoping that'll take out the "jounce". I probably should go ahead and get a pair of shocks for the rear, but I'm out of mod budget for this month.

I'm pretty sure you're going to love the shocks. For 2-wheel drive Eibach is all you really need. If I'd a four-by-four I would probably go with the Foxes .

If anyone hasn’t installed the Eibach rears yet, but is going to, please try and measure the rear wheel well height before/after. I have the impression it raised the rear a bit, but it could just be in my brain. @joeb427 feels like a bit more rake.

I’ll try to remember to do mine whenever they arrive. When did you order yours and how long did they take to arrive?

It only took about 72hrs for delivery. Drop shipped from Eibach in California to Virginia where I live. Ordered from Stage 3. Thanks!

I’m considering swapping out my stock front struts for the Eibachs. I won’t DIY this one. Any idea what a shop would charge for the install? An hour or two of labor?

is alignment needed too?

Dj, I'll be paying $340 for front and back install and alignment. You will need an alignment.

I received my set this morning.

Thanks, maybe I am one of those lost orders? I contacted them with a message thru their site earlier, hopefully they will let me know.

I think m I’ve must have been another of the lost Stage 3 orders. I placed my order Black Friday and haven’t heard a word since... I emailed Stage 3 a day or two ago and today I heard back that they are going to contact Eibach for an ETA.

When they do arrive, I will be installing myself except I will likely get the springs swapped elsewhere once I get the struts out of the truck. I have a compressor but for the few bucks it’ll cost me I’d rather have it done on a safer wall-mounted compressor.
