Dobinsons 2016-2023 Taco Suspension Options

They haven't sagged at all though there is a slight taco lean. I contemplated raising the front left a tiny bit more but since I'm already at 2" I didn't want to raise the 5100's more than that but I'm sure it would be fine. The rear leaf's have been awesome. No noise still and still solid. The overall ride quality is really good. Initially it felt stiff as hell but that's because the stock suspension was just super soft. Overall I'm super stoked on the set up as a whole. If I didn't have the shell on the back I would've gone with the 110 rear leafs.

 

What are your measurements for hub to fender right now? And are you at the lowest notch on your 5100? I'm glad everything is working out good for you. I ended up getting the one 886 with my 5100, which is 660 lbs, so far it has settle from 23 hub to fender to 22.5 up front. So I have lost 0.5 inch of lift. I'm curious to see how the Dobinson 314 hold up compare to the ome 887 which sagged on me that's why I went with 886.

 

Dobinsons Black Friday sale is running all November long, starts today!!!

Yeah, the 5100's are set at zero while the springs are adding the 2" lift. I could probably put something in the front left like a small ass spacer to level it but from what I've been told is to just leave it so it doesn't over extend the 5100's.
Right now front hub to fender :
Driver : 22.75"
Passenger: 23"
Rear Hub to Fender:
Driver : 23.50"
Passenger : 23.75"

 

Nice, thank you for the feedback.

 

@Crikeymike any ETA on getting the 110 leafs back in stock?

 

Months out, probably 3-4 minimum. We're not sure, so we're not taking backorders for them as I don't want to hold orders for that long

 

Yikes

 

@Crikeymike thanks for the phone call today. I can’t wait until it’s delivered!

 

@Crikeymike I’m looking at getting an IMS set during this sale and have a couple of questions - To preface I’m looking to get a 2” lift and will be adding 140lb rock rails in the future.

If I order the pre-assembled IMS coilovers at the link below with Stock Weight, 2”, Double Cab configuration - does that net me the C59-314 coils?

If I change that configuration to 100lbs front weight, does that change the coil or just the seat height?

Lastly, can these be ordered with seat height adjustment to account for the Taco lean?

Hey man.

Yeah, we'd use the 314 springs for that. It's the same coils even with 100lbs, you would just adjust the coil seat height. It just depends what weight it is and where that weight is. A bumper and winch affects lift height differently than a battery and air compressor does. And rock rails are balanced front and rear so they really don't affect lift height either.

You can request the driver's side be set taller to compensate if needed (add a note during checkout).

 

Ordered. Thanks for your help!

 

Just ordered MRR fronts and rears to upgrade from my blown out nitro twin 220s and rear 940s, super stoked. I'm stock front weight with 352 coils which ran pretty stiff, but I wasn't getting anywhere near the advertised lift height without them. Wondering if I should order 314 coils to throw on with adjusted seat height and keep the 352s for when I get my bumper and winch in the future...

 

I've got a bumper, winch, steel skids, and supercharger for extra weight in the front and have been on the 314 coils. The seat height is at the max of 226mm and puts me at about 2.25" of lift. I do have a set of 352 coils but I'm hesitant of installing because the lighter 314's flex nice. Wish Dobinsons had a spring rate in between 580 and 720 Lbs that'd be perfect for these trucks with some extra weight.

 

I'm hesitant to get 314s because of my previous experience not getting the lift height I need. I'm not running a front sway bar either. I don't want to get 314s, have to adjust the seat height too much, and then the ride is compromised with topping out the shock. I'll try my 352s and if it sucks I'll order 314s. Won't be getting bumper and winch for at least another year.

 

You'll probably be fine with the 325's untill you get your bumper. I was just giving an example of the weight 314's can carry and still provide some lift.

You're really going to love the MRA's!

 

OME has 660lb coils, might fit your middle of the road bill there. That's what I'm running (so is @Sasquatch3153 )

 

I hadn't considered the OME coils. Already invested in the Dobinsons 352's so I'll give them a go first. If I don't like the 352's I can fall back on the OME's

 

Just got my front struts in. Went with IMS and 352, went with these for the buy once cry once mentality and with the intention of adding a few parts down the road. Packaged well with no damages or anything. Cant wait to order the rest and have it all installed @Crikeymike was super helpful !

 

That's great to hear!!!

Be sure to post updates when you install them!!!
