The Eibach web site says it is a 1"-1.5" drop. I liked them because it was a signifacant drop but I could still run long tubes and a spawn torque arm with the crossbar.

I had stock shocks with stock springs at first and then went to the pro kit and didn't really notice a different in the ride. I didn't like the ride that much on the stock shocks either way though. If you at least have some bilstien shocks you would most likely enjoy them better. I am in Norman Oklahoma by the way.
