No rubbing so far but haven’t tested it off road yet. I suspect I might have to do some minor trimming if I fully flex but I can live with that. Ride feels a little softer than sas coils.
What are the wheel specs?

Finally! I’m up tomorrow with springs plus 37s. How’s the rub if any? I’ll also add a .75” body lift a few days later
If you get a chance, please take some before and after pictures for us. I have a 22 Badlands Sasquatch withe Rockslide Engineering Steps, and a VERY heavy rear bumper from Rock Hard 4x4 with a bumper mounted swing gate for my spare tire and 2 jerry cans (this alone is probably adding 180-200 to the rear), and I am waiting for my front BAMF bumper and will be installing a winch. The rear already sits much lower than stock (nose up for now) and I am hoping that the front bumper/winch will at least level be back out. I was considering going with the Eibach springs just to get back close to factory ride height with all my extra weight (maybe even a small amount of lift out of it).

I am a little concerned with the experience that Stripes136 had where he only got about a .5 inch rear lift with the springs and not much added weight to his BL SAS.

I love the functionality of the Rock Hard 4x4 rear bumper and getting all of the weight off the door but man does it sag the rear right now. I am guessing I have probably lost about an inch in ride height int he rear. My other option I am looking at are the Old Man Emu stocks as they appear ot be the only ones so far that offer any type of heavier duty springs (fox and kings are out of budget for now anyway). I eventually want to go to 37s but I am happy stilling with the factory 35s until they wear.

Looks like your rear is about as advertised (1.6”) but front looks to be only 1.5” (advertised as 2.3”) unless I’m reading wrong

Front looks like 38.50 to 40.00 for 1.5 lift in the front.
Rear looks like 40.25 to 41.00. I am only seeing .75 in the rear

My "stock" BL SAS is sitting at 38.5 in the front and 38.0 in the rear right now will all my extra weight.

After seeing my results and others on here, I think Eibach is adding the original Sasquatch 1.1” lift to get the advertised lift total. I had a little over a half inch lift in the rear( 1.1” + .5=1.6) and front ( 1.1 + 1.5”=2.6) but hasn’t settled yet. I could be wrong but this would explain everyone’s lower than expected results.

Yes, if that is the case then their springs are definitely not going to help me much with the extra weight.

I agree with you that this is not the way to go if you have that much additional weight. Being a progressive spring, it would not work for you. On my 4runner with steel bumper and winch, I had to upgrade to a stiffer spring on my King setup.

I have a Bull Bar, Winch Plate, and Winch which added 150 lbs to the front of my already heavy Black Diamond with the Mod Bumper and Steal Bash plates.

So I upgraded from the 450lb springs to the 550lb springs on my Eibach Pro-Truck Coilovers.

It definitely made a difference as I had to lower the Coilovers to fit in my garage. With the Sasquatch struts and springs it was sitting at 39.75" in the front and 40" in the rear. Now its 42" in the front and 42.25" in the rear.

You might be on to something there. If that's the case that's pretty deceptive on eibachs part.

Completely agree. If that’s the case I would have just gone with the full eibach coilovers

Same. Are people actually seeing the advertised gains (I think 3 inches) on the coilovers or is it the same gimmick?

Eibach provides exact lift details depending upon engine and trim in the box for the coilovers. If I only get 1.5 front and .75 rear from the springs I’m going to ask for a credit on the eibach coilovers or something similar because these coils are specifically for 4door Sasquatch 2.7L only (technically) it’s completely false advertising to say you’ll get 2.3” lift with zero fine print only to find that it’s actually 1.1” less (or 44% less). In fact it’s a first edition in the photo so completely loaded, they can’t even say factory skids or other factory equipment will lower the lift height of the coils

Yeah it's bs. At the time when I decided on the springs jeepandtruckparts.com had the full coilover kit for $1300. Now its $1700. Has anyone contacted eibach about this issue yet?
