I haven’t asked Dobinsons for anything. They’re about the furthest point in the country away from me. Best case, they’re 6 days away ground shipping. 6 days there, inspect and decide if anything can be done, 6 days shipping back. Labor is getting expensive and personally time consuming and I...
Well... Per Dobinsons, my front springs “are definitely not lifting enough. I would think it’s mislabeled.”
Rear shocks/rear height. Apparently I’m at fault for buying 50701’s instead of the 50705’s even though their website makes no mention that they’re for constant rear load and they’re...
I'll keep you posted. My Dobinsons arms arrived today too. I double-checked the rear springs were seated correctly last night and they are. I'll be pulling everything apart on Saturday and will give full pre-removal hub to fender heights, as well as measuring all springs to verify they're what...
Thank you for the photos. I’m 100% sure the front is measured correctly. I’m 99% sure the rear is seated properly but will crawl under tonight and verify
It’s getting pulled apart Saturday so I’ll be able to take full spring measurements at that time.
Non KDSS. The longevity of the IMS are what sold me. As far as ride quality, it’s fantastic. I originally wanted the adjustability of a front Coilover but ultimately the short rebuild intervals are what turned me away from those options. Like previously mentioned, I’d be willing to throw more...
You’re right, didn’t buy them from you but should have. Used this thread to make my decision and realized after the fact that you and Dobinsons were not one in the same. I’m not trying to put you down at all or this thread, but merely providing my experience with this product. Let’s say the...
Happy to but seems irrelevant since I’ve measured and the the product isn’t as advertised. Was sold as 1.75-2” front lift, 1-1.25” rear lift. Not sold as “it’ll look ok in a photo”
I’ll take a photo when I get home tonight.
Installer (I was right there). It was set right at 213mm. Center of lower mount point to lowest part of the spring perch as specified. We checked it multiple times. I have super OCD (real ocd) and we were very confident in its setting prior to install. (I work at a high-end dealership and...
If I can get 302/505’s this week, I’ll go that route. (Seems unlikely since they show out of stock) If I can’t, I’m going to go Icon and I’ll sell you my IMS fronts cheap.
Took measurements again today.
The lift I got: (with a full tank)
300’s
LF: 1.2” RF: 1.425”
599’s
LR: 1.625”...
Yours looks great! I’m jealous! Still can’t help but be disappointed in this product. Less than minimum advertised front lift, far more than advertised rear lift. For now I think I’ll crank up the collars on the front shocks to raise it up a little. Would rather preload the spring than drive...
I’m at 350 miles with weight in the back. Even if it does settle, I can’t imagine it doing so enough to bring me even close to the advertised lift. If the parts were available I’d do the 302/505 setup but they’re not right now.
While throwing in a different brand spring seems like the most...
Bought the Dobinsons IMS shocks with C59-300 and C59-599 springs. Ride quality is fantastic, ride height not so much. C59-599 gave far more than the advertised lift. Unfortunately availability of an alternate Dobinsons setup is a challenge right now so will likely rip it off for another brand...
