    20190722_160256.jpg 20190722_160322.jpg After the morning dentist fiasco with my 4 year old grandson, I drove over to Suburban Toppers to find out what was originally on the slanted front of the topper....a fake "Front Vista Glass". Gee Wizz..ordered a new one and the S Topper manager is going to see if he can order the fancy dancy optional Rival ARE branded light bar bracket which replaces the Front Vista Glass.....:annoyed::frusty::facepalm:

    @Black Wolf did you decide on a suspension yet? I am going nuts looking at all my options and combinations if I piece it together vs buying a kit...

    I think I am driving the folks at Toytec to drinking LOL. In a seriousness tho they have been the most responsive to my questions. Its greatly appreciated as I navigate thru all this.
    To bad Toyota gave me a firm NO on selling a pro suspension, my dealer said they will order me one if I really want it but I don't want them to get their hands slapped by Toyota so I declined. In the email reply from Toyota I was told that they do not recommend modifying the truck in any way other than how it came from the plant, that even the trd accessories are not supposed to added, I replied with well I guess the trd exhaust and shift handle has screwed it up LOL..

    Nuts just nuts..

    Very. Turns out that Dobinson's been in this business longer than ARB/OME. Also based out of Australia since 1953.

    Are you the first on this forum with that suspension? I don't recall hearing anyone mention it before.

    Someone has recently done the suspension here, and I got rightly schooled about Dobinson's earlier here on this forum by a member. I basically said Dobinson's was an OME knock off....I was so.....que in the Fonz......I.....was.....so.......tiny, tiny, lower case....wrong......whew!

    @Black Wolf , Matt I'm slack as hell . Great find and awesome Tundra. I got my DSP'S from G Tek Fab over on Tundra Geeks. Good selection, and the 3m adhesive is no joke. Here's a link to them. I got the black diamond plate on mine.

    As far as I can tell there is only one official distributor in the states for Dobinsons suspension products. Less middlemen and keeps the costs down a bit. There are a few dealers though. One in Colorado, two in Utah, and one in SDakota from C4 Fab actually! that you can special order from. You can order Dobinsons off Amazon but still ships from Florida. Better to order direct to make sure you get the right parts. https://www.dobinsonsdirect.com/

    Haha my brother is a lifetime Dolphins fan. When I got my first varsity football jersey he said “Sweet, you picked John Offerdahl’s number!” :facepalm:
