Dang, is it really 2013 specifically? TCCN video seemed to indicate it was anything pre-2014... Asking as the owner of a 2013 Sequoia haha. And sorry this happened to you, but it looks like you are well on your way to fixing it. Good luck!

Installed the Dobinsons Kit this weekend. Strut assembly was a breeze since no spring compression was needed to fully tighten the top nut. Installation was straightforward - most important tricks were to use a scissor jack to force the rear arms down enough to remove the rear springs, and...

Assembled the struts last night and spoke with Mike again. The definitive check here is the distance from the center of the lower lug to the lowest part of the spring perch that the spring touches. The correct clip position is whatever makes that dimension match stock. In the case of these...

OK, I think I heard you say that on the phone, but this is what the instructions in the box say:

Yeah the more I've driven this Eibach, the less I like the damping. I also think the rear spring rate is way off. The Dobinsons rear coils are MASSIVE compared to the Eibach, feels like twice the amount of metal in there, so I can't imagine what spring rate Eibach specs for their kit. Damping...

Quick question for @crikeymike, when installing this kit, if I put the front at the second snap ring groove for the as advertised 1.75" lift, does that maintain rake front to rear or also level things out? I want to maintain some rake so it rides level when loaded, so do I need to drop the front...

I went ahead and ordered the Dobinson's 1.75" kit with the IMS dampers. Once it was all in the cart, the difference in price between the twin tubes and the IMS was only 30%, so I decided to just suck it up and get the higher performance design. I'll report back once I have it installed. Thanks...

Sorry, didn't respond to all your questions. Eibach has a different kit for the Tundra with longer travel (and maybe different spring rate, not sure). I don't know what spring they use for the rear.

Thanks for the prompt response! See my update on designed travel of the Eibach compared to other aftermarket options, I'm definitely going to return and replace with something else. You are probably the best source for info on the Twin Tube vs IMS 1.75" lift options from Dobinsons? Goal here is...

I spent some time and put together some numbers for maximum designed front travel of various options: Dobinsons IMS, 6.7" Dobinsons Twin Tube, 6.2" Fox 2.5, 6" Bilstein 5100, 6.6" Bilstein 6112, 6.2" King custom shock, 6" Eibach Pro 2R, 4.3" (!!!) Eibach doesn't actually publish travel numbers...

A year ago I purchased a 2013 Sequoia Limited, with the regular non-air/nonadjustable suspension. All 4 shocks were weeping oil and generally it looked a bit sagged out and low. So I decided to replace the suspension and upgrade it for mild offroading, mostly fire roads and mild trails for...

Do you still have these for sale?
