Noob with Dobinson spring question

[DutchOven]

I apologize ahead of time because I am lazy and did not read through everyone else’s responses or posts. I put Dobinsons - Rear Coil
Springs Pair (C59-869V) on my 24TRD Off-road primarily for lift. However, I now have a full size spare tire/rim 95.25 lbs, jack and mount 46 lbs equals about 141.25 lbs constant load and I also have trailhunter skid plates the complete set which total 59 pounds plus Westcott designs rock sliders, which total 106 pounds approximately, not sure how much of that contributes to weigh in the rear, but I’ve not noticed any sag when carrying anything else. Currently I’m sitting at 24 inches from center of wheel hub to bottom of fender flares in the rear with stock strut. Just put on 6100s in the rear yesterday and still sitting at the same height.
Can’t speak for the C59-819V
But Dobinson’s says 25” (30 mm) with roughly 440–660 lb constant load for a trailHunter with that spring.C59-819V
I’d say they’re pretty accurate and the particular spring you’re looking at probably won’t give much. Your constant load is not near the limit for that particular spring so anything above that probably won’t affect it as far as squat goes. That’s been my experience anyways with the springs I have. In other words I’d expect 1-1.5” of lift with the C59-819V

youre giving the specs for the 821, the 819 is actually 175lb-330lb

My mistake

My mistake

Even so, my point being that I don’t think you’d have any sag with that spring

The other thing they indicate is that the lift may be 1/2-1" less for the Trailhunter over other models.

I can’t remember, are you looking for lift?

No, but i did reach out to the dobson folks and they said: "C59-819V will give you around 0.75"-1" of lift in your Trailhunter with the constant weight you mentioned in your email"
