Lumbar Support

Long days behind the wheel take a toll on your lower back, especially on corrugated outback roads. Our lumbar support range comes from MSA 4x4 and includes the MSA Air Lumbar Support in canvas or sheepskin, plus a spare air cushion valve for existing units.

Order online with Australia-wide shipping, or pick one up from our Burwood workshop in Melbourne's east. The team can also help you pair lumbar support with seat covers for a complete cabin upgrade.

Choosing lumbar support

Factory seats rarely hold up over a full day of touring, and a flat backrest shows up as lower back fatigue long before you reach camp. An air adjustable support lets you tune the pressure behind your lower back as the day goes on. MSA 4x4's Air Lumbar Support takes this approach, offered in canvas or sheepskin.

The choice between coverings mostly comes down to climate and the rest of your interior. Canvas is hard wearing and easy to keep clean in a dusty work vehicle, while sheepskin is the comfort pick and pairs naturally with sheepskin seat covers. Whichever you choose, position the support in the curve of your lower back.

Lumbar support FAQs

Do lumbar supports help on long drives?

Supporting the natural curve of your lower spine reduces the slouch that creeps in on long stints behind the wheel, which many drivers find means less stiffness at the end of the day. Being air adjustable, you can vary the pressure through the trip.

Will an air lumbar support fit my seat?

Supports like these sit against your existing seat rather than replacing any part of it, so they suit a wide range of vehicles. If you run seat covers, check how the two will work together, or ask the Burwood team.

Canvas or sheepskin, which should I pick?

Canvas is hard wearing and easy to clean, which suits dusty work and touring vehicles, while sheepskin is the comfort option. Both do the same support job underneath, so it comes down to your climate and interior.
