Ordered and installed the Trackhalk Eibach SE springs. So far the ride quality is adentical to stock springs no jumping no rattles and have yet to bottom out with 5 people onboard. I had them on for a week but didn't want to post my opinion till the springs settled and had adiquit seat time. The back noticeable lower from stock (2.2in lower) Front just about (1.2 lower). Yes the car had a wheel alignment after the install.

I'm guessing the rear settled more than it does in a Trackhawk due to the extra weight the Durango carries in the rear.

So this is what I have gathered with my testing. Yes the rear settled more than the what eibach has listed for these springs 2.1' on the TH. With the added Durango weight 2.4' was what I got. Surprisingly the front stayed the listed 1.1' after settling. This issue I ran into is when I changed rims I began to rub all the time. Looking for a solution without changing spring rates I ended up buying 3/8mm billet coil spring spacers for a mustang. They not only fit but provided 3/4 increase in height while retaining the same ride quality. I'm sure Eibach will release their Hellrango spring saving most of you the additional steps I've taken to lower this truck with out going the airbag route. Cheers

Well to add some insight, I called Eibach a week ago, trying to "pre order" a set, since I heard they had a Guinee Pig DDHC running around on a set, but the tech sadly informed me that they didnt like the results, so its back to the drawing board. He said I shouldn't expect anything until at least the beginning of the year at the earliest. So when I heard that, I said screw it, and just ordered the mopar set. Yes I know they wont be as good (in total lowering) as an eibach set, but then I remembered I bought the Tow Package on my DDHC, so probably a safer bet NOT to go as low as the eibachs will. I guess a little buffer is a good thing. Towing and 6 person cargo capacity is probably still within the duty cycle of the Mopar setup. Not justifying my purchase as being right for everyone else, but I sacrificed my preference (eibach), for buffer of knowing it could still tow and haul cargo (probably at the same time), but pretty sure the eibachs wont be able to (full discluser I have eibach'ed about 50% of my cars, so I do love them).

Do you have the part number or know where I can get the 3/8mm spacers? I have the same issue on my 2021 Dodge Durango SRT. I see Steeda makes them for the Mustang. Thanks!!

Looks perfect after the spacers...wish it wasn't this much of a pain...just sounds sketchy!!! Hopefully there are no issues and rides great aswell. Alignment work out well after the spacers aswell?

So after running this setup for awhile now with the spacers how's it been??? How's the alignment, rubbing, ride quality now that you have had it for a bit? Ordered the Jeep SRT Eibachs as recommended by SolisRacing but would like the biggest drop if possible without issues and would consider changing them for the Trackhawk ones. Thanks in advance for the info.

Did you have to switch out the rear shocks?
I just got the Eibach lowering springs from Solis Racing. They said to run the Durango SRT springs. Kind of anxious to see what the final drop will be.
