Stop making me think! Haha!

Everything I’ve researched on the web (and the web is always right ha) said the Eibachs improve the overall ride quality.
Don't use the RC spacers with the Eibach struts!

I guess maybe I over thought this process.
If you order the Eibach front springs and set them to the lowest setting, you'll see 3" of lift. On the next highest setting (like mine) will get you 3.73".

Without the Eibach springs up front and using the stock springs i think you can set up to 3" of lift at the highest setting.

I’m just trying to level the truck out. Not a fan of the nose down look.

You can set it to 3" and have it straight level across. I'd set it just one under.

Here's mine set at 3.75" but with a bumper and winch.

Got it done today! A little harder than I thought. I don’t have an impact gun so it made a few steps a little frustrating. Truck looks good! Didn’t even drive it yet, I’m exhausted! Ha!

Did you do the Eibach struts?

How so? I'm doing it next week and don't have an impact either.

The biggest pain in the butt was getting the top hat off the existing strut without an impact gun. Eventually had to use hand held torch to burn out the nylon in the bolt. And if I were you I’d remove the axle bolt and pull the axle out of the hub. Made it much easier to get the strut in and out. Need any advice, let me know.

Thank you. Is the axle nut tough without an impact?
