Eibach Stage 1 Lift for SR Lightnings coming soon!!

[fluiddynamics]

I am fortunate enough to live very close to the Eibach headquarters here in SoCal, and they took my truck for a week to develop a lift for the Standard Range vehicles

Ended up with 3" lift up front, and just over 1/2" in the back.

I am running 295/70/18 BFG KO3's on 18x9 Fuel Rebel wheels with a +1mm offset

There is rubbing on the bumper, but it was easily solved by just a bit of trimming, and a tiny bit of trimming to the crash bars as well, but overall I am very happy with the look

Didn’t realize that the stage one kit they have now was only for the ER models. Stance looks killer! Also the slight lift in the rear appears to correct the camber issue when going to larger tires.

There is quite a difference in weights between the 2 battery types - hence the difference they developed, otherwise the ER kit would be too "stiff"

I have the ER kit and feel its a little too stiff (if I'm allowed to nitpick). Id love to see how the slightly lighter springrate on the SR kit rides on the ER....

You have rubbing? That is interesting.

I was running an 18x9.5 +20 same spec tires, no rubbing on Stage 1. Looks like 18x9 +0 will be a no go for me

45 min with a cut-off wheel and no more rubbing.... can't tell at all unless you are really looking closely...

NOTE: I do live in SoCal so salt roads creating rust in the cut location is not a concern for me

Same, but prefer not to cut, only other option would be to stick to 33’s and lower a bit through the shock.

It's less floaty for sure... its more stiff, but feels more like a truck now, and less like a Lincoln Town Car. I would not call it harsh at all.

I might have to get a spring kit for my ER I’m rubbing the rear liner on my 35” raptor wheels and had to cut up my front bumper currently I’m on a 2.5” lift

Do you have the front camera on your Ford Raptor Grill? How much did it cost you to get the front light bar wrapped with tint? I want to do the same thing....wrap front light bar and replace the front grill with the Raptor one. Did you do it yourself? Your truck looks fantastic.
