Eibachs or stock cut springs are your only hope..
Saw a brand new pair of Eibachs for 100 bucks on cl..


I'll keep searching.


I might just cut my stock ones...
is it only 1 coil?
Eibach are 1" on reg cab, 1.5" on extended cab. No difference on engine size.
1.5" is cool....or some 2" belltechs would work..

it's just temporarily till I can locate some 4wd fenders for cheap...

i wish car fenders didn't have to fade...my buddy could paint the fenders to match my body for free at his work through the guy who paints there...but I guarantee you it won't match my truck is so sun faded

but I can't bring the truck there to match etc...since there not a auto paint shop:evil:
even if you went back to a stock spring, your still going to rub
when turning or hitting bumps, its the geometry of it that blows..

The amount of drop you get is dependent on weight, so engine size *does* matter.

The Eibachs give the lowest amount of net drop on a 4-cylinder Regular Cab, and the highest amount on a 6-cylinder XtraCab.

True. Nobody (that I'm aware of) has compared the difference of a extra cab with a 2.4 and one with a V6. Could be the difference of about a 1/2" if I had to guess. Rule of thumb is you get about 1" with std cab and the full 2" with extra cab, whether it be Eibach or Belltech.
The application listings were screwed up then from the ones I saw. They all listed 1" reg cab, 1.5" extended cab whether it's 2.4, 2.7 or 3.4.

I never seen the engine of a V6 myself. Is it just different springs that handles the extra weight?
