Dobinsons has officially rolled out their suspension lineup for the 4th Gen Tacoma! Dobinsons isn’t new to the game by any means. Their products are well known for their performance and reliability, but this is the first time we’re getting their full setup for the new Tacoma. Shocks, coils, arms, supporting components… the whole package. Here’s what’s dropping: IMS Monotube Shocks – durable, reliable, and built for real offroading. MRR 3-Way Adjustable Shocks – remote reservoirs, compression/rebound adjustability, serious control for the hardcore. Aluminum UCAs – forged aluminum, camber/caster adjustable, anodized finish, built for strength and handling. Coil Springs – different load ratings so you can run stock weight or go heavy with armor, campers, or gear. Supporting Components – adjustable panhard rods, sway bar relocation kits, diff drops, hydro bump stops, and more. Dobinsons designed this range to give your truck more suspension travel, better articulation, and improved control without sacrificing ride quality. We’re talking up to 25% more front travel with UCAs and diff drop, and up to 20% more rear travel, depending on the setup. We’ll have everything live on TacomaForce soon, but we wanted everyone to keep their eye out for this great lineup! Who’s excited? Anyone planning to start with the IMS or go all-in with the MRR adjustables? Call/email us anytime to talk with the experts We offer FREE build consultations!!

First: This is my first Tacoma and I know nothing about electrical.
I have a Trailhunter. It has several pre wired auxiliary switches, and from what I read they can handle the load of the Auxbeam ditch lights and light bar lights I got.
Is there any advantage to getting the Auxbeam switch panel?
It seems like I can keep a cleaner look using what I have.
Since I'm new to offroading and learning about overlanding as I go, I am unsure if I should save those for camping alternatives later?

My rig is a daily driver and I'll be using it for off road exploring and camping. I bought it after surviving Helene to build a competent daily driving bail out buggy. I share this so the experts out there understand my goals/needs.

Thanks for any help or insight, it's all new for me.
