@Padre -- Did you mean Dobinson springs? I'm also very interested in hearing feedback on how the springs are affecting the ride as I have no interest in lifting the Mojave but do want to handle similar setup with additional consistent load (canopy, rat, awning). Do you know which rear springs they sent you and did you work with them directly?

Yes, I meant Dobison's. Here is the box they came in. I have a friend who works at King Chariot. They sell off road vehicles, mainly Toyota, which Dobinson is very popular with the Toyota crowd. So he talks to them and they recommended this spring. If lifted the vehicle about 2". It feels a little stiffer but it doesn't alter the driving. But I can't put the same size spring in the front because then I will have the same issue. So they said, let's look at it with all the equipment on it. We will cut the front springs to get the truck level with all the equipment on it. Then when the camping equipment is not on the truck, it will sit a little higher in the back, which doesn't bother me. I just want it level when I am camping. So I didn't work directly with Dobinson's but through someone else who knows more than I do.

Awesome, thanks! Doesn't look like the image came across?

As for the fronts, was it Dobinson that offered to cut some to size based on your load and photos or King Chariot?

I'd come across Dobinson when looking for options for my previous WK2. The Australian market was sooo much bigger for aftermarket parts for those vehicles. :)

Instead of starting a new thread.

Just picked up a 23 Mojave. Looking to add the stiffer springs. Are the Dobinson they way to go?.

Given the Mojave has been out. Do we have other options?

Clayton also makes stiffer, overland centric springs with published spring rates. I'm using them to support my cap (175 lb) and roof top tent (198 lb).

With a constant 373 lb load over the bed, I'm getting 2" of lift with their front 1.5" springs and rear 2.5" springs.

AEV also sells their High Capacity Coil Springs.
