looks like the coil spring mounts were relocated as well. making the coils closer towards the vehicle centerline.

Hard to get perspective in that picture but the crossover Ebrake cable makes me think it's a Land Cruiser, but Land Cruiser's are offset 3rd members so it can't be that. Sure looks like a Toyota axle from my house.

This is my favorite part by far :spit:
I just threw on the dobinson 210v’s on my 4runner with a 4x rear bumper with a swing out and it measured 25-25.5” hub to fender. I’m right around 2.25” lifted in the front and the rake was obviously insane. I took them back off before I snapped a pic and went back to my 891’s. Giving me a roughly 1/2” rake with my 883’s up front with a coastal bumper with full tubing.
If anyone around Oregon wants those coils I have them for sale lol

Just ordered a toytec boss 2.0 kit
Put the super flex’s in with My day star spacers I was running on stock coils.
Toytec shocks had an extra 2-1/2 inches of travel with tires on the ground.
Gotta say.. I was a little skeptical to order the toytec kit but overall only installed the rear and am thrilled with the ride
Sons as the coilovers come in off back order I’ll report back
Also installing icon delta joint UCA As well...

Hey! Long time listener, first time caller. I installed the Dobinsons 210v coils this morning and I have pics! I have a 2002 limited and have had OME 890 and 891 coils before today. My suspension in front is the tundra TRD/Bilstein 5100 setup on the bottom perch. Rear has been Bilstein 5100's with 891 coils and 890's before that, both with the yellow 10mm trim pieces.
Front hub to fender is right at 22" both sides and the right rear sat about 22.25" and the left rear was 22.5" with the 891's.
After installing the Dobinsons without the 10mm trim pieces, the new measurements are 24 right rear and 24.5 left rear with half a tank of gas.

The left side looks higher because of the street grade and the angle from which the photo was taken. After a week or so I'll measure again to see if the coils have settled at all. The box the Dobinsons came in said to drive 1km and measure again; that, I did not do. I'll be getting new shocks and bumpstops this week, too.

so your tundra/ billies on bottom perch are handling the weight of the ARB ok and no tire hitting ? I ask because I will plan to do similar with the arb and a winch in front and have been reading different reports on what perch to set it too.
thanks

I do get some rubbing at full turn when wheeling, but daily driving is fine. I'm going to tub the front end enough for future 35's as soon as I have the time, but hammering the pinch weld and trimming some plastic has worked very well for my setup. Just for reference I have a CBI hybrid with full hoops and a Smitybilt X2O 10,000 lbs. with the synthetic rope. Tires are 285/75/16 Maxxis Bighorns. Wheels are Procomp 7069. The CBI is less than 100 lbs. and even with the winch the front isn't much lower than before. I don't know how much the ARB weighs, but if you haven't already seen them there are a couple videos worth checking out. Also, I recommend getting UCA's when lifting. I have Camburgs, however SPC's have an adjustable ball joint.
As far as which perch for the 5100's, it's better to leave it on the bottom and get a coil that suits your needs. The Tundra coils are progressive and adding preload will change how they behave.

You ever do any digging or experimenting with this? Can I ask what led you to believe this? Sounds very appealing
How are they holding up? Do you like them more than the 891s/how do they compare so far? Very interested, hearing lots of sagging complaints with 891s

891 suck saggy really bad. I'm currently on 7.5 LC it's ok but still no fully happy. Thinking about 210v. Maybe I will purchase a set soon
Read what you quoted from ClimbsTrees in your post #154. They are taller than 891's AND provide more lift.

How can I go about getting just a 1 inch lift with Bilstein 24-249966? I plan on getting the matching fronts and leave the stock springs on, but I cannot find info for the rears for such a marginal lift.
DS motorsport has all 4 shocks now for 375

Shocks won't give you lift, you'll need springs. I have 5th gen springs on mine, gave me 1.5in of lift all around.
