gixxerphil's 2013 DCLB #concretelander

oh you dont say? that should be neats! do you have the right springs to support that big thing?

my monies goes out a window so same lol

 

I have Dobinsons IMS adjustables. If memory serves I bought the springs with the intentions of having an ARB. When I got them, I set the height to stock size and still got a lift. Worst case, I turn it up a couple of notches and raise it back up.

 

noice noice that should be able to do it if not you get new springs oh well right lol

i just got my bilstiens in yesterday and now im waiting on the new upper control arms and winch mount for my truck so hopefully this weekend it will look like a true concretelander like you haha

 

I try to do things with future mods in mind. I don't have the funds to redo stuff

 

Get a new spring. That will give you the best ride. Ill swap em out for you if you want.

 

I may have bought the springs meant for the extra weight. I talked with @Crikeymike about my plans. I just don't remember which ones I ended up with. I'll have to go look at my order

 

Ive got the IMS lift on the Tundy and it rides great. I got the ones for no weight so if i end up adding some ill have to swap my springs. I bought my coils unassembled and assembled them. Ive got all the stuff to do it at my house.

 

Ok. I ordered the 314 springs.

Dobinsons C59-314 Gives this lift and suits these models:

1.75-2.0″ – Toyota Tacoma 2005-15 Dual Cab with up to 110 LBS load 586lb coils


If adjusting the struts doesn't work, I will buy the 352's

Dobinsons C59-352 Gives this lift and suits these models:

2.0″ – Toyota Tacoma 2016+ Dual Cab V6 Heavy Load 110-240LBS, 2.5″ with stock weight (heavy rate coil) 730lb coils

 

Looks like I will eventually have to buy springs. I'm gonna try to just adjust the struts until I grab a winch...........so a year or more

 

haha ive done a lot of redo stuff on my grey truck this one im going slowish with it plus i already know what works best so just doing that haha

 

I apparently didn't listen to myself with the coils I bought the middle weight ones

 

I did the same with leaf springs. I was worried H70HD's would be too stiff, but the H70s are too soft lol Back then they were the same price and since then have gone up.....

 

I was at least smart enough to order the HD leafs

 

lmao welll hopefully it works well!

i got me oem lol

 

It should. I have adjustment in the IMS struts and the 314's are rated for 100ish lbs.......I should be ok.....should

 

It happens

 

isnt the arb like almost 200lbs lol

 

Yup. My plan is to adjust the sturts up and see where that goes. I have no doubt that when I finally grab a winch...new coils will be needed..........just trying to hold off as long as I can

 

haha i gotcha man i think with the coils on mine and how much my front will weigh i should be fine setting it at 2" lift and letting it sag down to 1.5" and be fine and level with my rear so we shall see!
