Bad squat with eibach springs

[rayofsi]

Had this problem with ARB OME springs when I lifted my Rubicon. My suggestion is to reach out to Eibach. ARB sent me heavier springs no charge.

Question, do you have perch collars? Maybe the slipped in back?

Only did the springs, no other mods

Put the stock springs back in the rear. I did a similar lift collar in the front of mine and its about 1/8 low in the front now. Nothing needed in the back.

My front will be too high . I have the 2.6/1" from eibach. Just that my rear springs are shot. The 1" front will make it level with stock rear springs. My front is good. But my rear is sagging

Mine was over 2” low in the front, stock.

month later, not pleased with eibach, nothing new and they seem hesitant to replace my rear springs. i had a minor amount of rake when first installed, less then 3 months later, i got that carolina squat going on. very unhappy.

Can you add collars to the back to raise?

 

[rayofsi]

they dont recommend collars with changed springs.
i had the eibach springs replaced last thursday.. im sagging again lol....GG eibach
they originally said it was because i have aftermarket wheels/tires
measured the weight, its 1(one) lb more then the stock beadlock combination.

there is 100% something wrong with their spring rates, so buyers beware

Go with the Hyperco. I started with Eibachs and just switched to Hyperco and they feel way better.

Did you powder coat your springs?

No installed it as I received it. I'm on the 2nd set and one side is at squat levels already

I see what you did there...

Just dropped a deposit on the Eibach springs, going to be installed mid March. With that said this post has me rethinking my choice? Has this been an issue with all that have Eibach springs or is this isolated?

I've been told that I'm not the first with this issue. And most people are happy with hyperco...

Thanks for the info!
It’s really too bad that this happened. A lot of lost time in labor putting in two sets.
I will check out the Hyperco.

Just as a data point: I have Hyperco and have a 1/2” sag on my rear passenger side. Haven’t been able to determine the exact cause but I’m thinking it’s something shock related and not spring related
