Loving mine so far. ive probably got 12-15k miles on the shocks and 50-60k on the coils. still liking the ride.

mine started making noise when they had about 4k miles on them (4-5 months old). I believe they have a 2yr warranty, if i remember correctly, so i would email them and see what they say. they took mine apart, inspected them, recharged them, and sent them back to me to see if it fixed the issue...

Love it so far. Its night and day difference from the old bilstein 5100s i had. They had 80-100k on them but, even from new, they never had the control that these ims shocks do. they were fine on the street and small stuff, but once i started driving where i work now, they just werent a good...

It was great, no complaints. Im sure they were slightly skeptical that it was the shocks and not something i did or something wrong with my truck but they still responded to all my emails and took care of it in the end. I actually wish it was something worn out on my truck because it would...

Got the new shocks put on yesterday and all the noise is gone now. Like driving a brand new truck again lol. sending the old ones back so hopefully they can find out whats wrong with them.

update....just got an email from dobinsons and they are going to replace the shocks for me. they have been responsive/helpful so far and ill be sure to update this thread after i get them put on.

well, i can confidently say the noise im hearing is internal to the shocks. finally got a chance to completely swap shocks with my brother on his gx (also has the dobinson ims shocks). i put my shocks on his truck with his upper bushings and put his shocks on my truck with my bushings. the...

hopefully the sound on this video works better than the other driver side video. stupid youtube making videos into shorts automatically. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yBkmd_hQuM

heres a couple videos of the noise. The sound is more amplified with the phone laying directly on the frame, its not this loud in person. passenger side - YouTube

On mine, i can feel the clunk while holding the shock or placing my hand on the axle or tire. Nothing that i replaced has changed the noise, the only time it went away was when the shocks got rebuilt (lasted a week) or when those shocks arent on it. Mine also does it over rough road or...

Yes, a lot. Even spent $150 shipping them to and from and having new bushings pressed in. Basically was told it cant be the shocks, has to be on my end.

Same measurements as far as i know, and it only takes a very small movement in the suspension to make the noise. The noise didnt change at all when i replaced all the control arms with new ones so i dont think theres anything going on there. I went back through all the bolts when the noise...

Its definitely not the jack. It is for sure from the suspension, I can feel the clunk in the shock and axle when laying my hand on either. It does it when on jackstands or sitting on the wheels, its easy to recreate by bouncing on the rear bumper or pulling down on the roof rack and making...

TLDR at bottom lol First off, I dont usually post much about issues I have with car parts and this thread is not to bash anyone or place any fault anywhere. I am truly hoping to find something Ive missed or get other ideas of something to look at to figure out where this noise is coming...

thanks! yes, huge improvement in control for sure. mild lifts only for daily drivers at this point in my life lol.
