HOSS 3.0 Lift options?

[Nanook]

Has anyone put the Eibach Springs on their HOSS 3.0? Seems the conversation switched to collars, spacers and custom coil overs.
Is the consensus the Eibach springs aren’t better than collars or spacers on the Factory Fox’s?

I went with RTR’s 17x9 +0 and 37” KO2’s no rubbing with RPG 2.25 collars.

As far as convincing, there should be a lot of labor day sales, would she be more incline with “hey I’m going to do this at one point, but if I do it now I save X amount of dollars!” She may be inclined with a great sale. You can even do it in progression, 37” KO2’s fit on the stock wheels no spacer, with no rubbing on the street.

Looks great!! Wheels look hot.
I'm considering doing the 2.5 all around. Did you trim off your crash bar?

I did not trim the crash bar mounts I have at least a half inch clearance from the rear crash bar and much more room in the front. Keep in mind I am running BFG's 37's from my BRaptor that run a bit small. A Nitto Ridge Grappler would be much closer. I believe someone here is also running Toyos that work fine.

WHat's everyone doing for UCA? I have the RPG 2.25 front and rear. Thinking of going with RPG UCA's but also want to check out whats out there that may be a bit cheaper but still High quality. RPG is running around $1400.

Not sure it is truly a requirement to get UCA with a collar lift. I could be wrong, but I don't think you have to get new UCA with collars.

Lets see what others say

My lift is less than 2" so I likely dont "NEED" them as the rig aligns fine. My UCA's are still pretty flat but increased strength and visual esthetics is something I am after. I know some have different joints, some limit articulation etc. I likely should go after a rear track bar first but I am just gonna do the Rock Jock trackbar relocation for now.

I am using an 8 1/2" wheel mde by black Rhino w0 offset or you can use the Wildtrack wheels with 1.25" Bora spacer, which gets you the same thing. Rides beautiful, no rubbing. My wife's favorite go to vehicle when riding somewhere together now.

Hey, What steps are those? do they make them for the 2 Door?

Made by Hooke off-road. Not sure about 2 door. I really like them.

Got you. I'm going with the "not-quite" 37s K02 tires. Majority of my use will be highway and this will be my daily.

for people that went with the RC 2.5 lift, did you run into problems where drop bracket and the spacers caused front diff to be within (maybe even less) than 1mm clearance with the cross member? I had no problems with the front suspension otherwise.

I've got Eibach's on a OBX bronco and I also have a Wildtrack with Hoss 3.0 and they are damn near the same ride quality on road. Have't had the Eibach's off road but I'm sure for the Hard core buys the Hoss 3.0 is going to be a better option as itss a bigger body and the extra fluid that the fox will have with the resevior.

Any new lift options for the Hoss 3.0?

 

[derichio02]

I just noticed that my rear setup looks a bit weird. I have RPG 2.25 perches. On the driver side I can see the blue bump stop at the top of the rear coilover in the wheel well. But on my passenger side the coilover is tucked more into the body and I can’t see the bump stop. I’m thinking these should look nearly identical. Anyone with rear 2.25” perches to compare? Maybe @NJNMDoc ?

We've been having customers switch from the Hoss 3.0 to our ADS kits with lots of positive feedback. We are happy to chat about it if you'd like.
