I am beyond pleased with the Eibach suspension - it is not perfect, but it rides very, very well. I'd say it rides much better than the Radflo 2.5 I had on my GX - let me rephrase, it does ride a helluva lot better. The only nit with the Eibach is the rear seems to be off just a bit: when I had 200-300 lbs in the back, it was smooth as could be. Unladen, it's a little bit bouncy and/or harsh, but not unpleasantly so (and still better than the Radflo). I believe a progressive spring in the rear would be perfect. I'm giving up my hardcore card and putting the front swaybar back on; during a recent round trip to NE Ohio I discovered there is a bit more movement than I care for (esp at high speeds).
Driving the 4R was annoying because I had this hard drive sort of sound from the dash from air control servos fritzing out, and the blower motor was ticking and flapping. This morning, I replaced the 2 air control servos on the passenger side, which eliminated the near-constant hard drive noise; and threw in a new blower since I was unable to get the original to quiet down. Went for a ride afterwards and the HVAC was as quiet as could be, and I had proper air temp coming out of all vents. Little things matter! No pictures, and this is not a job I ever want to do again - there's no line of sight to 2 screws holding the servos, even when I had my head in the footwell with my legs up the seat.
