Eibach PRO-TRUCK Coilover 2.0 Availability "Update"

[mrjofus]

I just got this message back from Team Eibach:

"I just noticed you have the 2.7L V6, which we have not tested yet. The current kit we have coming out was based on the 2.3L engine. Now I imagine it should fit the 2.7L V6 as well, but we will need to bring one in for testing to confirm fitment, ride quality and lift amount. The kit should be released any day now."

So it looks like they'll be releasing any day now for a 2.3L 6th Gen Ranger, but they have not tested anything on the 2.7L.

Are there any mechanical differences for the front end suspension on the 25 Lariat FX4 between the 2.3L and 2.7L? I could see perhaps a stiff spring for the increased weight as supplied by Ford, but does anyone know if that's the case?

Engine weight difference. Pretty sure they want to make sure.

Makes sense, but from what I can find online the 2.7L weighs between 155 and 175 pounds more, so just 80-90 pounds per spring. I may be willing to take my chances

On the "vehicles wanted" tab of their website, appears they're looking for '24-'25 Ranger 4X4 to test out products. I'm somewhat curious, but also cautious as I've only had mine for 9 days now.

They'll leave you the springs like they did mine. It's for a few days at their plant.
