I know this is an old vid but it was helpful to me. Hopefully the Eibach stage 2 pro kit will be installed this week. 6/28/23
Thank you
You get it installed?
Did you get it installed?
Iv been looking for a good EIBACH video and finally. Thank you. I know these are relatively new to the market but dang.
Thanks Dan, you definitely won’t be disappointed if you decide on going with this suspension kit
Wow didn’t realize there was someone in Hawai’i posting content. Looks like you went to Sandy’s to test
I like the 4runner for what/all it is. It isnt the biggest or baddest out there. It has its place, and should maybe remain in its niche.
Jeeps have fenders outside their bodies, and even those have become monsters. UTVs also have a niche.
I have their coilover kit, stock in back for the "level" look. Going to put a shocks and springs in the back to get more height and bring back to factory rake while lifted. any suggestions?
Go with their HD coils (2") or the light duty (1") with a 1" spacer
I'm looking to get a 4runner but not sure if I should go KDSS or non KDSS with aftermarket suspension upgrade. I'm concerned about possible KDSS lean and possible extra maintenance. Will aftermarket suspension upgrades handle body roll as good as KDSS? I'm looking for a max 2.5 inch lift.
Great questions. I've lifted both and KDSS definitely helps the 4Runner handle WAY better, particularly with body roll and cornering at speed. The lean also is easily eliminated by opening the KDSS shutter valve during suspension installation. This is something we recently learned about and purchased the KDSS correction spacers. I personally prefer KDSS over non. Also using an adjustable coilover is recommended to get it exactly how you want the 4R to sit. Here is a link the the Treaty Oak KDSS kit:
www.treatyoakoffroad.com/product/kdss-spacer-kit
and shutter valve instructions:
metaltech4x4.com/content/KDSS%20Instructions%20Prado_4Runner.pdf
Does this lift kit require any additional parts for KDSS equiped 4Runners ?
Sorry for the delay Mark. Not it doesn't. I know the non-KDSS models will include a sway bar drop bracket but not needed for KDSS since it has more down travel for better off-road capabilities!
Awesome Im looking at getting those eibacks soon. Did you have to do any brackets for panhard bar?
We didn't initially but recently upgraded to the Dr KDSS BOTCK and it made the rig way more stable in the rear: drkdss.com/products/bopck-bolt-on-pan-hard-correction-kit
@FREEDMEDIA thanks!
Greetings, I would like to ask you a question....with what elevation height do the shock absorbers come in the box already preset, without modifying their height....I ordered a kit and I would appreciate your answer, it is of great importance to me,,,greetings, good video
2.5" out of the box
Would the height be comparable to what you have at the end of the video if you slapped it on out of the box?
Yes absolutely. I'd install as is and see what you think
Nice review and I wonder how they will perform against the Billstein 6112 or 8112.
Very similarly
@@everydaybettereverydaystronger are the Eibach 62mm tube like the 6112 and with position sensitive damping like the 8112?
Did you have any rubbing issues with the 285s ? Also what's the max tire size can you go with this set up? I'm looking to order the 2R kit for my runner and I don't want to do a body mount chop.. trying to stay within my budget here not having to touch anything else.
Yes BMC required to clear this offset (-38) wheel. Maybe not if you crank up the coilovers all the way but it'll be super stiff. Even with an additional 1" body lift the BMC is required. Stick to 0 to -12 offset to stay somewhat conservative. No rub at all if using stock wheels. Hope this helps!
How much lift did you get using the rear coils that kit provided plus the ome .25 spacers? How much lift dose the front coils have from the factory out of the box before all the adjustments? What is the final lift you actually got after all the adjustments and rear spacers on the whole vehicle is it comparable to a 2.5” or 3” lift. Sorry for all the Questions but I ordered this kit for my 2018 4Runner 4x4 premium it’s been on back order for 5 months really thinking of canceling the order and trying something else that’s in stock don’t know if it’s worth the waiting anymore? Thank you
1.25” in the rear, 2.5” in the front out of the box Well worth the wait
Keep in mind people this is a pro so it was high stock.
@@matthernandez210 The fact that it was a Pro has zero to do with it. The OP removed the OEM "Pro" springs and shocks responsible for the slightly higher stance. The Eibach kit will result in a lift that's exactly the same weather it's a Pro or a TRD Offroad.
I have this kit on my 20 ORP and it’s a big disappointment, after 6 months the noises keep coming from rear back and I tried many ways but still couldn’t fix it. Wish I went with something better.
Sorry to hear! Still having it? Does it happen all the time or just when off-road?
Thinking about getting those stage 2 kit, I want to achieve a 3 front and 2” out back, and putting 295 mt, how you liking it overall ?
I personally think 295 is the best tire size without necessarily having to regear which 35s tend to do. Overall love it but definitely takes a lot of trimming so be prepared especially if running an aggressive offset wheel
Are those JBA’ UCA? Did you find the ride stiffer than the stock TRD Pro? What did settle at in the front of total lift? Any rubbing on the 285’s?
Yes JBA. The quality ride is very similar. Settled at 2.75" after the adjustment when we cranked it up too high then lowered it back down. You have to trim the inner fender liner plastic and BMC
@@everydaybettereverydaystronger Hi, great video I purchased the OME150PR10 trim pack, never knew they existed before watching your video :). For the JBA did you need to use wheel spacers in order to clear the tires from rubbing on the JBA UCA? if not what is your wheels offset? the rig looks sick !!!
@@maguedistafan9204 hey thanks for sharing! No wheel spacers needed with most aftermarket wheels. These are SCS F5 17x9 wheels with -38 offset
www.stealthcustomseries.com/products/f5
@@everydaybettereverydaystronger Sorry to bother you again, but do you have a BMC done (Body Mount chop)?
@@maguedistafan9204 all good and yes have to do BMC with these wheels/tires
Sick runner🤙🏽I have the stage 1 right now set on the lowest clip on my runner and after a while it settled down and now it sits lower than some 3 inch. You think the stage 2 would provide that fully 3 inch lift? I also live on the big island so mostly just a cruiser and weekend beach with the family
Yes definitely stage2 will achieve 3"+
@@everydaybettereverydaystrongerhow about for a 2017 Tacoma, which is the best kit for daily to reach that 3inch. Stage 1 or the eibach pro 2?
@@Aaronchristiann go 2.0
Are the KDSS spacers required when installing on 5th gen with KDSS?
No but certainly help with balancing the lean out
I live in Oahu also where did youhave this done at and how much did it cost installed? please share all yoru information?
This was installed at Maui Off-Road in Waipahu. Since we're just the video production company, it's best to call them and ask 808-678-9500
Have you had a chance to take these off-road? Like rocks
Yes not true rock crawling but certainly on rocky terrain here. They work well
Hi I have a 2017 no kdss do I need sway bar drop bracket
Need no but it’s good to do
GREETINGS, I NEED TO ASK YOU A QUESTION, AND AT THE END OF THE VIDEO I SEE YOU DESCRIBING THAT YOU HAVE LEFT YOUR 4 RUNNER IN THE SAME SIZE OR IS IT THE MARK WHEN YOU TAKE IT OUT OF THE BOX.
I PLAN TO MAKE AN UPGRADE WITH THEM BUT I DON'T WANT TO MODIFY ANYTHING BEFORE PUTTING THEM ON, I JUST WANT TO INSTALL THEM AND THEN SEE WHAT RIDE HEIGHT THEY ARE REMAINING FROM, SO I CAN SEE YOU HAVE AN EXCELLENT HEIGHT ON YOUR 4 RUNNER IF YOU HAVE IT CONFIGURED AS THEY CAME IN THE BOX IS EXCELLENT THAT WAY IN ITS CONFIGURATION.
JUST CLARIFY ME I LEAVE IT IN THE SAME SIZE THAT CAME IN THE BOX... GREETINGS GOOD JOB
Thanks! Yes leave them as they are then dial them in with the height desired after if too low or high
I’m in Hawaii too. Which shop do you use?
Maui Off-Road in Waipahu, Oahu and in Kahalui, Maui
I have the same kit you ended up with . 2.5 in the front and 1 inch lift in back with the reg load springs . My question is … I was looking at getting the0 .4 inch rear spacers for the rear so it’s more level maybe a tiny rake because one person ( not many before and after a on this product ) said some told him the front looked slightly higher . Do you sit level with the quarter inch spacers in the rear and the reg load springs ?
Yes I was in same boat where it sometimes seemed higher looking in the front so that .4 spacer gave it the perfect touch more of lift 👍🏼
@@everydaybettereverydaystronger thank you very much
@@everydaybettereverydaystronger I see the measurements on the OME is .4 inches . Icon says they have a new one out that is .25 . But I’m not sure that will be enough . I will probably go with the OME
@@MikeyDfromTN go with the OME
@@everydaybettereverydaystronger yes sir . Just ordered it . Same part number on toytec . Same size but black and after my order PayPal said I paid X amount of dollars to daystar . They pulled a switch on me but same # and size
can still get us a good deal on the Eibach 2.0 at Maui off Road for my 4R?
Best to get it from MJs as they are the official Eibach dealer on Oahu
Anyone knows the name or part number of the upper arm control?
They look like JBA control arms.
jbaoffroad.com/jba-std-high-caster-upper-a-arms-for-toyota-4runner-2003-and-up.html
With this spring setup, ill also be adding a winch and front bumper - combined weight about 160lbs-ish. Will it sag the front or does eibach sell heavier load front springs?
According to Eibach, the supplied springs will accommodate the heavier weight. You'll just need to increase the preload by adjusting the coilover to your desired ride height
@@everydaybettereverydaystronger this is great info! I'm looking for a suspension system for my 2013 Trail Edition, and this is on my radar. I was thinking I'd have to spec something with heavier springs, because I'm also thinking of doing a hidden winch setup. Sounds like this one might be nice, because I can just adjust it to compensate for the weight rather than going with a heavier spring.
What’s the offset of the rims and size of the rims?
They are the SCS F5 wheels 17x9 with 3.5" backspace and -38mm offset
www.stealthcustomseries.com/products/f5?variant=13960809906229
How loud are those tires?
These are fairly quiet since they're new but from my experience they all get louder over time. They key is to rotate and rebalance every 5k miles to help them wear evenly
Tire noise doesn’t really matter much on Maui, you rarely ever go over 45 mph.
Huh?
Hi Wendy, you have a question?
