  1. I could be wrong but I believe that Dobinsonsprings.com is their Australian site, and dobinsondirect.com is the US market site. I ordered my front springs from dobinsondirect.com. I chose to, and recommend sticking with LR springs for the rear.

  2. I agree with @RainGoat If they're on order wait on it. I only know of a couple others that have used them and they have yet to complain. The guy from the video was asked by Ironman directly for a hub to fender measurement from before and after which he opted to not provide. The FSM provides the factory specifications for ride height so even though he never took measurements before installing the springs he could have referenced the FSM material and then provided a post-lift measurements, just as they asked. We don't know what conversation took place prior to the video but I'd think if you provided them with OEM literature paired with before and after measurements, including photos, they would be obligated to fix the situation with a refund or replacement pair of springs.

  3. Since it is a universal, not a direct bolt on unit, it sounds like you will have to modify it to mount it, whether screws, velcro or an adhesive as best as you can.

  4. Did they quote you a price? I see there are two websites. Dobinsonsprings.com and dobinsondirect.com The first is coming up to $540 total for front and back coils while the second site is $400 total. Just curious about the big difference in price if both state to be a dobinson website.

  5. Personally, I find the video incomplete. It sounds like IronMan tried to engage the owner but he wasn’t interested in providing them information. If I were them, I’d probably be done there too. I wish we had a write up with the actual facts. Consequently, if the IronMan springs are coming, I’d wait to get too worried as I’m not convinced you won’t be okay or that IronMan won’t back their product up. That said, no real reason not to go with the Dobinsons. Personally, I very much dislike IronMan’s vivid green.

  6. Clutch Slave issues all sorted and I'm really loving having the car back. Went exploring (we have a book of 250 Victorian Waterfalls, we are trying to see them all) and done a bit of metal detecting last weekend. Car ran great and a lovely time was had! Stay Safe FGF

  7. Huh, wonder why he wouldn’t get the fender to hub measurements. I’m surprised he didn’t take them, I always take fender & hub measurements. That said, they definitely don’t look like they’re giving him lift. Tough to say - the spacer sure confuses things. Not sure why he threw the spacer on without trialing it first. A 1.5” spacer with any notable lift wouldn’t have been a great idea anyway. If he won’t even bother doing the installed fender to hub measurements, I’m not surprised IronMan isn’t bothering to move forward. Kind of too bad for everybody.

  8. No, but everyone whose installed them thats talked to me about it ( ~ 3 people?) like them. They’re a reputable brand, bigger in the Toyota world.
