Im a couple of months in on having the Eibach pro 2 set up on my 21 Trd sport 4x4 and i couldnt be happier! The ride is firm and makes the truck feel more planted with way less body roll in the corners and less nose dive on braking. Tackles large bumps nicely with no bounce ! Im a weekend warrior and for the price the Eibach pro 2 was perfect!
I have 2023 TRD 4Runner premium, I see Eibach’s in my future. Just waiting for a sale price! I have them on my 08 Tundra, upgraded from 5100’s, really happy with that purchase, hoping to have similar experience with my 4Runner.
I’ve had the Eibach Pro Truck lift on my 3rd gen Tacoma for about three years now. Light off-roading nothing too crazy and they still ride great with no issues.
Pulled Fox outta my Jeep and went with MetalCloak, use Eibach on my 2004 GX470 and my 1997 Land Cruiser. LOVE these shocks! Waiting for the Black Friday sale on the stage 2R setup for my 2014 4Runner. Highly recomend these shocks. The support and customer service is amazing!
I have ran Eibach 2.0 on my wife’s Gx460, my jeep wrangler Jk and now on my 2018 1794 Tundra I’ll run run the 2.0R. They have a great ride and performance I love our Eibach 2.0
Solid quick comparison guys! I’ve been leaning toward the Eibach 2.0 pros. You guys have the best and pro content out out here about the Eibach pro line! Thanks for the info
Can you confirm that the eibach pro truck shocks work on 4th/5th gen ram 2500 trucks with rear air ride. It seems that almost nobody on the internet can verify what shocks to get for that application. Would be a great video to get a 100% verified answer on what performance shocks are available for our trucks. Thanks for all of your hard work, guys 👍
Upgraded from a set of Bilstein 6112/5100 to FOX 2.5 DSC (all corners) about a year and a half ago. Out of the box the nobs were so bad and difficult to turn, that I had to sent them to FOX for warranty repair. Which they did, for free, and got back to me within a week. They managed to "fix" 3 out 4. One remained super stiff for the better part of a year. And even today I still need a small 3D Printed tool to turn it. But, the shocks have run pretty darn great and smooth on my 22' 4Runner. I'm about 25,000-ish miles on them now, and passenger front shock is starting to leak. I am due for a rebuilt, despite not running the truck supper hard. I am considering going with something else next. Great shocks, but for what I do and the cost, I don't think they've been worth the head ache
I put the Eibach Pro Trucks on my 2022 Ford Ranger FX4 a couple of months ago, based on your recommendations. They are just what I wanted and far superior to the Ford/Fox shocks that came on it. The dirt road ride is amazing now and I don't weave around potholes any more. Road handling is better. I have a mountain road I travel weekly and find myself going faster than I realize.. Like a new truck! Had the base Ranger before that and it road like a bulldozer, FX4 was far better and Eibach takes it that same jump again.
Happy with Eibach Pro Truck 1.0, but feel their product guidance could be better. Took awhile to determine 1.0 is the same as 2.0, except 1.0 reuses your top hat and does not have on-the-truck adjustability. For a 5th gen Ford Ranger, the 1.0 provides a minimum of 3" lift, which is quite a lot. It'd be nicer to select 2". That said, 1.0 is way cheaper, and nearly no one adjusts their shocks once installed, so says my install shop, too. Another confusion that took lots of research.. to truly lift a truck, Eibach and any other will only lift the front. The rears don't provide lift, only accommodate a lift via block spacer (not great) or new leaf spring kit (preferred). Springs can be ridiculously expensive. I paired my Eibachs with Icon multiple spring kit, which was middle of the road in expense and provides lift amount options based on adding or removing springs. Anyway, its still a homework assignment to match your Eibachs with other components required for a true truck lift front and back, but that homework is required for all other shocks, too.
I upgraded to the eibach pro truck cool overs and rear shocks from bilstein 4600s front and rear and they are a lot better at everything. Bilstein are too harsh but I didn’t want something soft and these were perfect handle a 800lbs land in the bed of my truck better than the bilsteins did. Basically just like bilstein but without the “bang” literally. Leveled my truck out perfectly compared to the pick I had too. Handle Louisiana roads great and slow and high speed off-road conditions well. Even easy warranty claims once you call them. 2017 f150 fx4 with rancho greaseable upper control arms for reference and, 16,000 miles on them. About 3 on the warranty replacement witch has a different shock body the warranty rear and original I bought look different shaft looks the same though
This great, ive already replaced all of my non adjustable links and stuff on my gladiator. Its my daily so I think this is the shock im looking for (eibach)
I recently bought the Eibach Pro Truck Stage 2 front coil overs as well as the matching reservoir rears for my Toyota Tundra. Couldn’t be happier. Ride is very smooth but also pleasantly firm. The truck feels very planted to the ground and got rid of the annoying body roll. Haven’t tried the fox 2.0s, I’m sure they are great but I didn’t love that I would possibly have to have them serviced as soon as 30k-50k miles. Just my 2 cents.
So, I've been pretty set on buying from you the Bilstein 6112/5160 setup for my 2020 Tundra. I'll be using my Tundra more as a daily, occasional overlanding, and occasional hauling when needed. However, now I'm debating about these Eibach. Your opinion? My tundra will only be a daily until I buy an actual daily vehicle (2025 Camry or 2025 4Runner). I plan by 2026 to buy the new Tacoma as my actual overland rig, which, I'll come you you guys again for that build. So, Bilstein or Eibach-tis the million dollar question
they're so close in ride quality, but from the vehicles we've tested between both of them (ranger, bronco, silverado), the Eibach is a tad more forgiving, where the Bilstein is a tad more responsive / +handling. All else is about equal, and comes down to driver preference
Nope. I currently have DUAL LEAKING EIBACH pro truck 2.0 front shocks. They both started hemorrhaging oil at about 25000 KMS. I’ve had zero response from eibach’s “million mile warranty”. While the shocks improved my 2022 4Runner, I’m extremely disappointed and discouraged by the purchase. I ran a full set of mopar approved FOX 2.0 on our 2019 Ram 1500 (from new) and had zero issues when we sold the truck at 70000 kms.
Going on 3 years with the original Eibach pro truck lift on my 4 Runner and it has been great both on and offroad even with the extra weight of the gear I added on my rig.
I've run the Eibach pro truck adjustable coil overs on my 2020 Tacoma for close to 2 years now. As far as ride and performance go, they are the perfect balance for me. My truck is mostly for commuting but I do find my self off road and on unpaved bumpy roads on the weekends. They are a great, budget friendly option and I highly recommend them. The only bad thing I would say is, enjoy the nice shiny finish while you can. After one winter, they will not look so good anymore. Having said that, I would still buy again. If Eibach made a premium shock with aluminum body, I would pay more for it in a heart beat! Food for thought EIBACH! 🤔
Eibach needs to step up and include upper bushings for the rear Toyota shocks (Tundra) Consumer shouldnt have to buy some to use the shock, and most stock bushings arent in great condition, unless truck is brand new.
'20 Silverado 5.3, crewcab, RWD: At 5K I upgraded my stock suspension with the Eibach system (front/rear shocks/coils/leveled). I had my mechanic install it. Eibach works. No fancy sales department, but they work. I am curious if the rear resovoir (sp), would assist my rear as I haul gear, though do not tow anything. Regarding warranties, I have no leaking from the shocks. I wonder, though, is there a point at which all shocks begin to fail. Does it come down to a simple measurement (ground to top of tire{fender})? Thank you in advance.
the reservoir shocks will not *handling when hauling more gear, since the reservoir shocks are a tad softer and valved differently to be better for higher speed offroad use. If you're experiencing too much slop or sway under load, sumo springs or timbren could help as more robust bumpstops.
First of all thanks for the awesome video! Question: I’m running bilstein 5100 with stock springs on my 4Runner right now. It’s too stiff for me… Thinking about switching to eibach pro truck . There are different variations of pro truck series, will they offer same level of comfort? If I go with pro truck coilovers, will the spring be stiffer than the stock spring therefore make the ride stiffer again? When you mention the comfort of eibach sits in between fox and bilstein, which specific model of pro truck series are you referring to? Thanks!
Pro Truck coilovers are likely a tad longer than the adjustable height shocks, varies by application, but that's what we've found on our tests. This allows a bit more comfort because the shock doesn't top/bottom out as easy. Valving wise, they're aimed to be the same through their available damping range. In other words, aiming for the same feel. The springs that come with the Eibach coilovers are more of a universal spring, and that rate shouldn't be compared directly to the factory spring rate, because the length is also different compared to stock, along with wire size, etc - cant just leave it up to lbs/in. We're confident moving to Eibach from Bilstein will be more comfortable.
I’ve ran Eibach prokit lowering springs on my M3 for years, and loved it. Does Eibach have a setup for JL Wranglers? I’m about to get Fox 2.0 on my Wrangler next week, please let me know if I’m making a mistake!!! 😂
Cant wait to buy the eibach pro truck 2.0R for my 2020 tundra. If i buy a set of icon rxt leaf packs from you guys can you build them to what weight rating i want the leafs set at. I will be hauling alot of camping gear and a rsi smartcap on top so i will easily have 700 lbs in the bed.
Hello, I currently have a 3" BDS leveling kit on my Tundra, and woo soon be purchasing from you the Eibach pro-truck stage 2r along with other suspension upgrade components, ie UCA's, and AAL's. Can I use my 3" leveling kit on conjunction with the new shocks? Wow that affect the ride quality for overlanding/daily? Also, if my front shocks are at 2.75" and the rear aal raises the rear 1.5", how much more of a lift in the rear would I need if the front is 5.75"? Also may get a motofab 2" leveling kit on the front to use wig the Eibach setup.. Opinions? Thoughts?
Unfortunately no availability for the power wagon, as Eibach only has shocks for the non-pw at 2" front / 0-1" rear, a tad too short for a factory height PW.
Hows the articulation on the Eibachs at slow speed? I have the stage 1 on my Tundra and an curious about these. The stage 1's have too stiff a spring for my liking with 3" of lift. What's your take on the stage 2 if i had them at 3" on my Tundra? Is there another Eibach spring you'd suggest if the stage 2 was too stiff for me?
I’m driving a 2010 Tacoma prerunner with about 110,00 on it. Looking to upgrade the shocks to see if I can achieve a better ride for a daily driver that won’t see any off-roading. I’ve watched several videos and I’m still undecided. The stock leaf springs on this truck may need to be replaced as well but I wanna start with shocks first. Any feedback is appreciated.
I love the idea of these. Plus, I need to maintain the 3 inch lift on my 21 bronco 4dr squatch. I know a 2.5 probably would be better..... What is the feedback on 37 inch tires? Tire is a 37x12.5 r17 Kenda RT
So I just replaced a rear set of eibach Pro Truck 2.0... not sure what caused them to burst the seals. I live in Alaska and it gets pretty cold here. Know anything about the cold rating on them? Lucky that eibach did warranty them but I'm not sure if they are winter rated.
Very interesting as always. I'm running Bilstein 5100 on a light CJ-7 with relatively soft custom ordered leaf springs, 35s and swaybar in the rear. I drive it very actively on-road and slow offroad. I love the sporty feel of when cornering and breaking hard, but washboards are still incredibly bad. Would Eibachs fix that and still maintain a sporty feel?
cant say for certain on a 'fix' - but in the case of washboard and how our vehicles have felt over similar - Eibach is a tad more forgiving than the 5100s. And the Fox 2.0 is even softer than the Eibach in most cases (the 4 vehicles we've tested back to back with at least). Its really hard to feel significantly better over washboard, lots is in tire pressure. And if you go too soft, depending on vehicle and wheel/tires, the excess chatter (from lack of damping) is as bad as the washboard itself.
between these? Fox 2.0, or even the Eibach pro truck have gotten good feedback. feel free to text us 213-433-3616 for immediate help on your vehicle, or email support@shocksurplus.com
either way will work on a monotube shock like the Eibach. Typically you try to go for shaft up so its a bit more out of the way from road debris and rocks.
2017 Silverado 1500, currently running 2”rough country bottom strut spacers to fit 33’s on stock suspension and drives like crap, in order to keep 2” level can I go with Bilstein will I have to use spacer still? Or would eibach be a better choice
Bilstein and Eibach will work to replace that strut mount spacer, Bilstein will be sportier, Eibach will be a tad more forgiving, both are great options.
There are Eibachs available for the front, but only their height adjustable shocks. www.shocksurplus.com/products/eibach-pro-truck-sport-strut-front-pair-for-2015-2020-ford-f150-4wd Text us for more details, there are some other products that may work, depending on how much height you are looking for, 213-433-3616
Have a set of Eibach struts/shocks for all 4 corners on my 2010 chevy Tahoe Z71 that is currently all OEM, but with only 73k miles. I am pairing it with the stiffer than OEM Eibach rear sway bar to tighten up the body roll even more! If needed I'll upgrade the front sway bar as well, but I doubt I'll need too.

With the added benefit of Eibach in long term usage, would you pick it over a Dobinson IMS shock package ?
Great question
We haven't been able to spend enough time on the IMS to give am opinion, soon though with our Bronco!
A limited lifetime warranty from a company who has been in business since 1951
I have about 60k miles on my Eibach Pro and they are about shot. Light offroad and mostly commuting miles.

Can I use my 3" leveling kit on conjunction with the new shocks? Wow that affect the ride quality for overlanding/daily? Also, if my front shocks are at 2.75" and the rear aal raises the rear 1.5", how much more of a lift in the rear would I need if the front is 5.75"?

Great video, thank you. Do you have an eibach part number for the ram power wagon. ??
Unfortunately no availability for the power wagon, as Eibach only has shocks for the non-pw at 2" front / 0-1" rear, a tad too short for a factory height PW.
Hows the articulation on the Eibachs at slow speed? I have the stage 1 on my Tundra and an curious about these. The stage 1's have too stiff a spring for my liking with 3" of lift.

I know a 2.5 probably would be better.....
What is the feedback on 37 inch tires?
Tire is a 37x12.5 r17 Kenda RT
So I just replaced a rear set of eibach Pro Truck 2.0... not sure what caused them to burst the seals. I live in Alaska and it gets pretty cold here. Know anything about the cold rating on them? Lucky that eibach did warranty them but I'm not sure if they are winter rated.
Very interesting as always.
I'm running Bilstein 5100 on a light CJ-7 with relatively soft custom ordered leaf springs, 35s and swaybar in the rear. I drive it very actively on-road and slow offroad.

So,,the Eibach rear shocks for F150. Which way up ? Tube up or down? I had em installed and they are tube end down.
either way will work on a monotube shock like the Eibach. Typically you try to go for shaft up so its a bit more out of the way from road debris and rocks.
Wheres the billsteen 8112s content? 1hour long video plus cinematic b roll????
Yeah we’re is it at

I think you just sold me some Eibachs. 2018 Power Wagon.
unfortunately eibach doesn't have the lengths required for the PW, its a bummer.
2017 Silverado 1500, currently running 2”rough country bottom strut spacers to fit 33’s on stock suspension and drives like crap, in order to keep 2” level can I go with Bilstein will I have to use spacer still? Or would eibach be a better choice
Bilstein and Eibach will work to replace that strut mount spacer, Bilstein will be sportier, Eibach will be a tad more forgiving, both are great options.
Do u have the eibach for 2022 ford tremor,also anyone had these on there tremor,if so how were they
There are Eibachs available for the front, but only their height adjustable shocks.

Eibach have shocks for 22’ Power Wagon? I only see it for the 6.7L motor.
No they dont have parts for the PW
Have a set of Eibach struts/shocks for all 4 corners on my 2010 chevy Tahoe Z71 that is currently all OEM, but with only 73k miles.
I am pairing it with the stiffer than OEM Eibach rear sway bar to tighten up the body roll even more!
If needed I'll upgrade the front sway bar as well, but I doubt I'll need too.
How did that all turn out? Liking the shocks and sway bar? I’ve been looking at doing the exact same thing on my 2012 Z71 Tahoe w/60k on it.

I rather throw away shocks! They better
What if you had a tool set to rebuild your own fox 2.0?
Fox 2.0s are absolute crap. I’ve had my Ram 2500 less than two years and I’ve blown 3 of the 4 shocks on it in under 40,000 miles.
What kind of use do the shocks get? They are a street shock if used hard you need to upgrade to a king or something 2.5 or 3.0.
