Update Eibach Springs Installed

[NY Mav]

After a few weeks of having the Eibach springs installed the ride is stiffer. I didn't notice the day I picked up my truck. I guess this is the trade off. Anyone feel the same with the ride comfort?

Nearly all lowering springs have a stiffer ride.

Some may have a progressive rate but they still need to be firmer or you would bottom out on the bump stops too easily. Lowering the vehicle puts you closer to the bump stops. So to make up for the bump stops being so close the stiffer springs take more force to compress so you don't bottom out against the bump stops.

Many people want the lowering to be more sporty so they like the stiffer springs. Less body roll. Which is great on a smooth race track but not so good on potholes on the street.

only stiff going over bumps/gutters. I did the EIBACH and love the look(no you don't need the camber bolts)

It is firmer. Changing the geometry of things like the sway bar as well. But did you also remember to cut/replace the bump stops? At least for the hybrid, you cut part of the fronts off and replace the rears with the ones that came in the kit. They are part of the shock absorbers.

Question? Did anyone notice a difference in height from left to right?? My passenger side(right side) is 1/2 higher then the driver side?? Not sure why there is a different? Anyone else notice this??
