How do you like the Eibach coilovers, how does it ride when compared to stock?

Nice!
Title disappointed me a bit.
I expected to click on it and see the version of a Squatch build from 1979.

However, post was redeemed with proper usage pics of a Bronco in a natural habitat!

The Eibachs are great. Comparison is tough since I had RPG perch collars on the OEM Bilsteins since it was practically brand new. Those were stuff as hell and the Eibachs are much softer. Off road they are great, not a single complaint.

How high do you have those coilovers set? And any issue with rubbing at full stuff?
