Wish I could help. I just put on eibach adjustable shocks at 2” and 1” rears and it seems to ride great so far. I took out a 1.25 spacer and that may have improved ride. Still running ome springs. When I hit a bump I feel it of course but the eibach deals with it and recovers very quickly.
Eibach pro truck kit questions
I recently installed the eibach pro truck kit at 3 in front and a 1 inch block and rear and so far so good. except when I hit a speed bump at 15 mph it feels like I'm smacking the bump stops. I can't tell if I actually am or its just the stiffer springs retracting faster anyone have an idea what could be wrong?

I feel like it's maybe because of my sway bar it looks really stressed without the drop bracketWish I could help.

Are you at the 2nd perch from the bottom or 3rd. If you went to the 3rd, that is only recommended for trucks with weight in the front, i.e. heavy aftermarket bumper or winch setup. Another member had knocking issues when it was on the 3rd perch. If you are on the 2nd perch it may be the upper droop stops or the springs hitting the sway bar. It looks like you installed aftermarket UCAs so it shouldn't be that joint.
It is installed on 2nd perch at that 2.7 mark I think its the sway bar because the bushing on the sway bar looks a little tweaked now so I ordered the drop bracket today. Do you have a link for the end links I can't find them anywhereAre you at the 2nd perch from the bottom or 3rd.

I also added the differential drop kit. Peak Suspension Colorado/Canyon 1.

I did all three...Might be overkill but I haven't had any issues.
I never trimmed my upper droop stops.
