So i'm finally getting round to fitting my eibach kit. On the front struts there is 5 possible slots for the height settings. Approximately what is the difference between them all.
I presume the 1st (lowest) one is same as stock height.

There are 2 instruction sheets for eibach. One for the oem spring and one for the eibach spring so we would need to know which coil you are planning to run

It’s partially dependent on your truck setup and weight. I have bilstein 5100 struts with eibach springs. For me the lowest setting was 2”. The middle setting was 3”. My truck is a quad cab 5.7 4wd with a 70lb front bumper and I have all factory skid plates and also have side steps. My front bumper sank the front about .25”

mines the 5.7 quad cab 4wd stock bumpers no extra weight apart from a tonneau.
So reading those instructions says even on the lowest (bottom) slot i'd get 2.75 inches. That's pretty good. Mine has a crazy low front end rake compared to the rear. Think it is around 3 inches different fr to rear. It's always bugged me. It'll be interesting to see it change.
Thanks for the links.

I think i'm gonna start off on the lowest too. Keeps the ride quality better too i believe. Did you do just the eibach kit? Do you like the ride?
