What do you have against the ICON rear camber kit? I get a good price on them.

May just be the fact that you have to permanently modify the truck's frame.

That's a turn-off for me, personally. I'm fine with permanent frame modifications for significant suspension changes on a high performance vehicle, but for just mildly lowering the rear of a $80,000 pickup truck, it feels extreme.

Eibach got back to me and suggested the Icon kit for rear camber. Therefore I will not be going through with the install.

I have a few Icon rear camber kits if anyone wants one.

Eibach is estimating another two weeks on the lowering kit availability. The first batch is going to be small. Send me a PM if you want a set and I'll see what I can do.

Want to get this for my lowering springs but really don’t want to modify any structural pieces, even if it is just a quick drill. This sucks.

It’s funny as you get older you less likely to do mods that require modification to anything OEM lol

Yes, info on a leveling kit please.

I agree, if a simple bolt on solution was available it would be ideal.

A bolt on kit will almost certainly not happen because there isn't an existing camber kit on the truck already. It's modified for fixed camber, and to increase camber as there is more weight in the back of the truck to increase stability. It literally splays the wheels wider when carrying a load. Obviously to correct the camber permanent modification is going to be needed which is what that kit offers.

I'm very curious to see what I has to offer but I have heard and seen nothing.

I have a shipping estimate of 12/15 for the Eibach lowering springs. I'm told the first production order will be on the small side so don't delay. Send me a DM if you want me to get a set for you.

 

[mefly2]

In Montana, too ...

How do we know if we want a set ... no price, no details .... repeating:

I'm interested, how much are we talking about?

4 springs $400 to your door. If you need any other information I can reach out to Eibach.

 

[csukoh78]

Spring rates? Recommended shocks? Lowering depth? Literally any other info?

The springs will work with stock shocks or Eibach Stage 1 shocks.

As far as lowering if I remember correctly it’s 0.5 up front and 0.2 in the rear, I’ll verify for you.

Edit:

Lowering spring info

Front – Lowering -0.5” | Rate 485/650 lbs/in



Rear – Lowering -2.9” | Rate 148/493 lbs/in



Both front and rear springs are progressive.

Anyone remember how it compares to the stock rate?
