    Dobinson’s coils and shocks. SOS sliders, ditch light brackets, and front skid. Rigid ditch lights. BFG KO(dos) More minor stuff.
    I’d love to try Dobinson’s also but very little info. Talked to Southeast Overland today and they say Dobinson’s is much stiffer. He said it’s good if you are going with a lot of weight and/or towing.

    I like my factory rubber mats but they are a pain to clean and vacuum around. are these slick under your feet or do they grip you shoes/boots?

    These are like plastic/rubber, definitely slick compared to soft factory rubber mats. I also like the factory rubber mats on my other car but the heel made a hole through the mat in a couple of years. Hope these last longer.

    With the help of this forum, replaced the front coils and struts with 3rd gen, put 3rd gen wheels on and went up to 265/75r16 Toyo Open country. Just got the springs and tires done yesterday!IMG_6970.jpg

    On my 2007, my springs were very squeaky. Lubricants like WD40 worked for a short time until it rained. My eventual solution was to put pieces of a treadmill belt in-between the leafs .

    On my 2013 I've never had a squeak

    I've had Dobinsons on my truck for about two weeks. I've got the heavy weight springs with a fiberglass cap and DECKED system in the back. ARB front bumper and Warn 95xp winch will be added next week. The suspension is excellent. A HUGE improvement over the stock suspension before. I highly recommend Dobinsons. I got mine at Main Line Overland. MLO uses Dobinsons as their own brand and has changed the colors to black/red.
