I ran MRRs for a few months. I made the switch from BP-51s. The MRRs had much better large hit damping than the BP-51s. Not surprising considering the larger bore/piston. I wasn't as happy with small bump compliance for the front shocks. Regardless of damping adjustments, the front always...

Have been using Carista for years. Works great.

Exactly my experience as well. I have around 800-900lbs static and the rear was too soft with the 547 springs. Even through the fender to hub measurement at 23" was pretty ideal, the vehicle just felt too soft in the rear when going over bumps, etc. I swapped to 549s a couple of weeks ago and...

I have been running the Trekboxx Bravo for 4+ years now. The craftmanship is fantastic and have had zero issues. The Bravo weighs 200lbs empty.

Thank you for the offer. However, I already have a Trekbox system.

I pulled them off upon taking delivery of the vehicle. They are boxed up and sitting on a shelf in the garage. Realistically, I will never use them. But, going to keep them for now.

The 549s feel great. They have the same free length as the 547s, but have a spring rate increase of 50lbs. I did gain about 5/8" of height in the rear versus the 547s. Overall, very happy with the change.

Swapped the rear springs from Dobinsons 547s to 549s. Also installed a new set of bags as my old set was leaking. Truck feels more balanced and composed with the higher rear spring rate.

I ground the outer edge of the front bump stop smooth and I am not running the front bump stop. I have Durobumps in the rear bumpstop mount and they seem to be providing enough cushion to prevent metal to metal on the front stop. If I ever hit, then I will add a very thin bump there just to...

Made some suspension updates over the last few months. Removed the BP-51s and OME 2723 rear springs. It was also time to rebuild the Icon front UCAs and rear LCAs, so did the shock swap at the same time. In November, I installed a custom set of Dobinsons MRRs and C59-547 rear springs. The...

BP-51 shocks for LC200. I used these for 50k miles. They were working great when I took them off with no issues at all. Local pickup in the Phoenix metro area preferred. I also have OME rear springs available separately (2723 and 2724).

For sale: OME BP-51s for LC200. 50k miles, no leaks, squeaks, etc. Still working great when I took them off the vehicle. Local pickup in Phoenix metro area. $800 I have rear springs available as well. OME 2723 and 2724

Hi, Very sorry for the delay. I still have them, but considering installing them. I will let you know. thanks!

Thank you, I missed that part. I have edited the post.

FS: New King shocks purchased from Ben at Filthy Motorsports. These were custom valved for the weight of my rig(+250lbs F, +850lbs R). I bolted in the rears and the front passenger, but removed and put back in the box. 200 Series (2008-2021) 25001-266A Front 2.5 Coilovers w/ Remote Finned Res...
