Quick lift question (Eibach st2 coilovers)

[CarmeloS]

Lifting this week, what should I set them at for a lvl look, 1’ front/0.8 rear, or?

Thanks in advance

Mine are set at 2" front, 1.75" rear for just a slight rake but I'm a 4-door. Eibach claims they come from the factory set to be level. I'd stick them on the way they came out of the box and drive it a few miles before I made any changes.

So , just recently installed the Pro Truck coilovers in my Bronco with SAS . My only " issue " is that we had to crank up the coilovers in the front to max to level . And we are about 1/8" low in the front . Wanting to try a few things to bring the front up , and back down the adjuster on the front to soften it up

The heavier springs Eibach offers solves the above problem…

How much spring settle did anyone experience? The shop that did the installation used the out-of-the-box heights, and I'm wondering if I need to wait it out more for the springs to settle or adjust the springs to maybe 1/2 inch lower.

Also, how much of an adjustment requires a new alignment? I don't think I'd adjust these myself, so it's not a big deal but I'm just curious.

Not sure that I have had any spring settle . I will have to measure again .
Adjustment is easy , just remove the weight of the vehicle, and use the spanner wrench

I haven’t noticed any spring settle, but I didn’t measure either. 1/2” probably won’t effect alignment enough to re align, and the only thing that changed much when I installed mine was the camber.

Adjust them yourself. Spray a little wd40 on them helps turn them easier.
