5th Gen 4Runner Suspension Upgrade Dobinson's IMS Long Travel/Extended Suspension Install

Complete Install of a Dobinson's IMS (Internal Monotube Suspension) system on a 2020 5th Gen 4Runner 4WD. Mike asked me to help him with getting this upgraded suspension installed in his rig. We used Icon rear coils and OME coils on the front around the Dobinson's struts. Some other things we used that aren't in the Amazon list below were...
-Apache Offroad extended rear bump stop extensions
-Dobinson's extended rear sway bar end links

We did the extended brake lines after this video, I don't recall the brand we used but they were about 4" longer than the stock brake lines.

Some of the tools and parts we used in this build are available on Amazon. You can find that list on my storefront. Note, if you purchase there within a day (I think) of clicking the link then I may make a small commission from Amazon, which I totally appreciate.

Some of the products I use and trust...

I’m looking at this kit to replace my Metaltech long travel kit. The Radlo shocks that came with that kit are horrible and I only have a couple of inches of up-travel on the rears. I bottom the rear out on the extended bump stops all the time when off-road and sometimes on. It seems like the Dobinsons have a better spring rate selection - have you experienced any rear bottoming out with this kit? Much thanks for sharing your experience! Oh and smart thinking having a buddy help with the install - between the suspension, front UCA’s, rear LCAs, extended brake lines, sway bar relocate, etc…, it’s a long day by yourself!
