This Eibach Pro-Truck Coilover 2.0 Stage 2 kit pairs threaded-body front coilovers with rear sport shocks, sold as a pair of front coilovers plus rear shocks. Each front unit uses 46mm monotube construction with nitrogen-filled variable force valving, and the front spring is an ERO off-road race spring. The threaded spring perch lets you adjust ride height in small steps instead of accepting a fixed factory stance, and the anodized 6061-T6 billet aluminum coilover mounts are a durability upgrade over stock hardware. The manufacturer also says the coilovers are individually dyno tested for matched performance and reliability, and that the heavy duty bushing system is cycle tested.
Confirm fitment before ordering. The manufacturer's application selector for this part number lists the 2019-2023 Ford Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost 4WD, so the 18-20 wording in this product title does not match the application tied to E86-35-048-01-22. Because the kit replaces the front struts and adds rear shocks, it is best suited to owners who plan to run larger tires, a heavier front bumper or winch, or who want more control on rough terrain. The work is a multi-step suspension install that should be followed with a wheel alignment, so budget for that cost on top of the kit price.
The manufacturer lists part E86-35-048-01-22 for the 2019-2023 Ranger 2.3L EcoBoost 4WD. The 18-20 model-year wording in this product's title does not match that application, so verify your year, drivetrain, and engine before ordering.
Yes. The manufacturer sells this part as a pair of front coilovers together with rear sport shocks, so the rear shocks are part of the kit.
Yes. The manufacturer's install sheet calls for checking wheel alignment after installation, and owners on user forums report needing an alignment after installing the kit.
No. The manufacturer says never to use impact wrenches or impact guns to install or remove the shock piston components, shafts, or piston rod nuts.
This is a strut-level job rather than a simple bolt-on. The manufacturer's install sheet walks through removing the wheel speed sensor and brake hose bracket, disconnecting the tie rod and upper ball joint from the knuckle, removing the stabilizer link and shock lower nuts, and lifting the assembled strut out of the tower. Owners on user forums suggest dropping the lower control arm to make the job easier, and they note that axle nut sizes reported by different owners vary, so confirm the size on your truck before buying sockets. Mount the springs with the Eibach logo facing up, and keep the impact tools away from the piston rod nuts. Plan on an alignment and a check of fender clearance, brake line routing, and ABS sensor position once the truck is back together.
