Yep, VIN should give them the right specs but the sheet states w/ squatch.
@Ducati1098...can you confirm if alignment specs are different between squatch and no squatch?
Looks like they aligned per Sasquatch specs which does have a raised suspension when compared to non-sas. I'm pretty sure a non-sas OBX w/ OEM suspension is going to have different specs.
Compressing the springs will be much easier if you can get three compressors on there vs. just two. IMO it would be much easier to pull them off the truck to swap springs.
Yup, sucks but the springs didn't fail, just the shocks. They may be willing to send a new complete set but it won't be for free replacement. If you can get them off the vehicle a shop should be able to swap springs very easily for cheap.
I purchased mine through Panda as well...Caleb was a big help navigating the warranty claim process.
Not sure if it's a manufacturing defect. I ran mine for a while until the oil really started leaking. Overall I've been happy with the Eibachs but if it happens again I'll be going to a...
No, not normal. My rears did the same thing at roughly the same mileage. Eibach has a million mile warranty...they replaced mine (shocks only, had to swap the springs). There were no shipping charges or need to return the defective shocks. Pay close attention to their return policy. If I recall...
Other than the 7mt transmission rattle in cold temps I've had zero issues with my '21 2.3 7mt BL. I would say the biggest thing to check extremely close would be the hard top for cracks and/or delamination.
A lift isn't going to help with items that are most likely scraping...rear diff and other low hanging fruit such as the rear LCA mounts and shock mounts will remain unchanged. Larger diameter tires will gain you some more clearance but not a huge amount...going to 37s would gain you +/- 1.5"...
