The dude that's responsible for assembling them is trying to get them done, but it takes a while per set. Not all orders will get filled this week I don't think, as they had run out of ball joints on Friday and had to get more sent over real quick.

Getting my ‘20 SR5 soon. Plan to upgrade the suspension with dobinson’s instead of bilstein 5100’s. Any recommendations with the dobinson’s. Looking for about 2-2 1/2 inches of lift and getting spc uca’s and 285 tires.

Sure thing. If it's just going to be stock weight, you can make your selection from the first post as far as the coils go, then choose what level of struts and shocks you want to go with.
The 4runners come with about 2" of rake, so if you want the vehicle more leveled out than how it comes, you would lift the rear less than the front. 2" front, 1" rear, or 2.5" front and 1.5" rear. Both of those are super common. However if you carry a fully car of people or are regularly loaded up, it's best to keep more rake in it and lift it evenly, so that you can absorb the weight with the rear suspension, when it gets heavier.

I'm in the market for a lift. With all the options out there its hard to narrow it down. Im considering Dobinsons. Im looking to run 285's so probably 2.5in in the front and 1 in the rear to level it out. I am running a single Robinson drawer in the rear with a custom built platform and a Kuat bike rack most of the time. any suggestions?

You could do 1" in the rear with 2.5" up front, but you run the risk of negative rake when you load up. If you don't get much heavier than the drawer and the bike rake, then you should be ok.
C59-302 up front and C59-599 in the back, then your choice of shocks. That would get you the height.

Just got back from first trip with new suspension so figured I was post a few pics(sorry about the quality)
1st one is unloaded
2nd has medium load(bikes and clothing but no camping gear)
Did some 4 out of 10 offroading and didnt hear any crunching noises so seems like the additional travel helped out.

So I regrettably blew one my rear twintubes (705s) after 25k miles. Went on ALOT of trips this year (I average 25-30k a annually on my vehicles).
Thankfully Dobinsons and Mike at ExitOffroad are taking care of me and now I'll be upgrading the rears to IMS 701s! Super excited as I'd like more dampening due to the static weight I carry in the back. Will do a comparison between the twintubes and 701/705 valving after I install them in 2 weeks.
Thanks again to the Dobinsons/ExitOffroad team for the excellent customer service!
