Eibach 2/4 (35112.550) how did you align?

Those with Eibach 2/4, (35112.550), how did you do alignment?

One more question–why does the full Eibach 2/4 kit cost around $520 while the full Ground Force 2/4 kit is around $1100 or $1200? I see the GF comes with shocks for the rear, but that doesn't justify the cost difference, to me anyway.

I wanted to get all this done last summer but I had gotten laid off. Trying to get going again.

I got my GF 9929 (2/4 drop) for less than the eibach kit you've listed, you just have to know where to shop.

As for the alignment, I had no problems having it aligned back to stock specs without any alignment kit.

I went to a professional alignment shop and they suggested adding the adjustable alignment bolts. May not have needed them, but I got them installed with a 4 wheel line up. Truck rides near stock at 2/4 with no issues. If you can, get the Eibach Pro Damper shocks all around. Worth the extra cost. - Og

Thanks all. I don't have to buy a kit from Eibach to do the alignment at least.

I forgot to ask why doesn't either Eibach kit– 2/3 or 2/4 come with shims for pinion angle? Or do they not list it for some reason?

I purchased a shim kit separately. I sold it after I found out that I didn't need it with the 1 piece driveshaft. Specialty Products - part #86255 - If you need them, check here: - Og
