Hey guys, breaking down all of the current Dobinsons options for the 100 Series and LX470, putting it all in one place. I keep seeing various questions in various posts all throughout here about what options there are, so hopefully this can help some of you out when the time arises.
All parts are available separately, and there are also kits available with the options to pick and choose what parts you want as well.
Torsion bars
TB59-1600 - For gasoline V8 models - Heavy duty, increased rate. 1160mm length. Can be used to replace AHC or standard torsion bars.
TB59-1610 - For diesel and turbo diesel models specifically - Heavy duty, increased rate. 1210mm length (these cannot be used on a V8 Gas model)
Front Shocks - Gas and Diesel Engines
GS59-782 - Twin Tube Nitrogas Shocks - for 0-2" lift
GS59-786 - Twin Tube Nitrogas Shocks - for 2-2.5" lift - extended length so that shock doesn't max out too soon with taller lift heights
IMS59-60782 - IMS Monotube Shocks (internal resi)- for 0-2" lift
IMS59-60786 - IMS Monotube Shocks (internal resi)- for 2-2.5" lift - extended length
MRA59-A782 - 3-Way adjustable Monotube remote resi shocks - for 0-2" lift
MRA59-A786 - 3-Way adjustable Monotube remote resi shocks - for 2-2.5" lift - extended length
Front Upper Control Arms (UCA's)
UCA59-006K - Heavy Duty pair of upper control arms, ideal for lift heights up to 2.5" of lift, allowing for better suspension movement, and wheel alignment due to built-in fixed caster. Comes with Sankei 555 Ball Joints (made in Japan), OE style rubber bushings. Zero maintenance required.
Diff Drop Kit
DD59-532K - Complete front diff drop kit to lower the differential when lifting 2" or more and correcting the CV angle, and also allowing for the longer travel front shocks to be used on conjunction with new UCA's
Rear Coils - lift height is of course subject to replacing stock/worn out components, and AHC vs non-AHC systems.
C59-169 - 10mm lift, linear rate, with stock weight. For slightly above OE stock height. Ideal if someone is doing AHC removal but doesn't want to add lift (465/475mm free height, 227LB rate)
C59-223V - 10-20mm lift, variable rate, with stock weight. Closest equivalent to C59-169, but variable rate for more comfortable ride quality and low lift height (445/455mm free height, variable rate). Real world lift heights have come back in the range of 10-20mm over stock height.
C59-167 - 30mm lift, linear rate, with 110-220LBS constant rear weight (485/495mm free height, 227LB rate)
C59-185 - 30mm lift, linear rate, with 440LBS constant rear weight (480/490mm free height, 277LB rate)
C59-171 - 30mm lift, linear rate, with 880LBS constant rear weight (485/495mm free height, 328LB rate)
Rear Shocks
GS59-682 - Twin Tube Nitrogas Shocks - for 0-2" lift
IMS59-60682 - IMS Monotube Shocks (internal resi) - for 0-2" lift
MRA59-A682 - MRA 3-way adjustable monotube shocks with external reservoir - for 0-2" lift
Longer shocks are available for those wanting to do a longer travel rear end - PM for more info and specifics.
I know some guys have tried different Dobinsons 80 series rear coils in their 100's, based on different heights they were looking for, or heavier rates. If that someone is you, please post up a summary of what you've used and what lift height you've got with whatever load you're carrying so that I can add those to the list.
