Eibach or Pfadt?

Im looking at the eibach pro plus, and the Pfadt stage 2 kit, which one would you guys recommend? They are essentially the same kits, and Eibach is 50 bucks cheaper, but i just want to know which one is more reputable! Thanks!

I've read many good things about Eibach but have first hand experience with Pfadt.

If the price difference is just $50 bucks, IMHO go Pfadt and you've got no worries! JDP Motorsports here in Utah is a first rate dealer that will take excellent care of you too!

I, too, have the Pfadt Stage II kit and couldn't be happier. Great stance and it finally handles like it should have from the factory. Got mine from JDP Motorsports as well.... great to work with.

Pfadt all the way! not only do they build a better product, but the customer support from them literally can't be beat! we are az's largest pfadt dealer and always do free shipping on pfadt products. that may help close that price gap on the eibach

I had pfadt stage 2 on my LLT and I think it was the best mod I had! Loved it! Recently upgraded to an SS and I am about to put pfadt stage 2 on her as well!

Pfadt is the way to go! If nothing else, the ride quality is worth the difference in price.

The Pfadt Stage 2 kit is great and will transform the way your car handles and rides phenomenally. Definitely what I would recommend!

Feel free to call, PM or email me anytime with questions.

Best regards,

I have no experience with Pfadt but I like Eibach. The pricing is very affordable and the drop/ride is perfect for my daily driver/street use. I believe they are currently offering a Summer Rebate Offer until August 31st (as long as you purchase from an authorized dealer). Both companies are very reputable. Compare both websites and you'll see which is more reputable.

I've had my Eibachs for just over 2 years. Perfect drop. Never bottoms out. I've used Eibach on 2 previous Mustangs I've had. No complaints so far.

I'd say Eibach. Great experiences with them, great pricing, great products, with a name brand you can trust that's been in the industry for over 60 years. Can't find many suspension companies with the R&D team and engineering background that Eibach has if I'm honest. With more Eibach equipment in motorsport than most anyone I can think of, the decision makes it easy for me which is why I have Eibach on my Daily driver
