Complete kit contents
Front coil pair and two front struts, two rear shocks, two rear leaf springs, spring/shackle bush kit, four U-bolts (two kits), two rear shackles, two greasable pins and tailshaft centre-bearing spacer kit. Front struts are assembled during workshop installation. Existing serviceable top mounts are reused; new top caps are not included. Upper control arms are not included.
Lift and fitment
Selected front and rear springs specify approximately 45 mm lift. Dobinsons groups this as a 2-inch/50 mm application; actual height depends on load. This listing excludes the 20 mm no-load rear option, standard-height and parabolic springs. Application TOY-116; excludes wide-track Rogue, GR Sport, 2WD/Hi-Rider, single/extra cab and N90. Confirm build date, especially November 2025 changeover vehicles.
Spring ratings do not increase legal carrying capacity. This is not a certified GVM upgrade.

Know before you buy
Before you buy a lift kit
A suspension kit changes ride height, how the vehicle carries weight and how its safety systems behave. Victoria has clear limits on how high you can go without engineering.
- How much lift is legal
Nationally, up to 50 mm total with no certificate. In Victoria an off-road 4WD can go to 75 mm (50 mm suspension plus 25 mm of tyre radius) with a kit designed and tested for that vehicle, and you keep the kit maker's written statement (VSI 8).
- Tyres count
Bigger tyres add to the lift. A 4WD can go up to 50 mm larger in diameter if the tyres stay inside the guards and don't rub, and the speedo must stay accurate.
- Match it to your load
Choose springs for what the vehicle really carries: bar, winch, drawers, water and touring gear. A kit set up for an empty vehicle will sag under a full touring load.
- Stability control
A lift must not affect electronic stability control, and the ESC unit must never be disconnected. Airbag suspension needs a VASS certificate in Victoria (VSI 8).
Common questions
How much can I legally lift my 4WD in Victoria?
Up to 50 mm in total (suspension, body blocks and tyres combined) needs no certificate. Off-road 4WDs can go to 75 mm: 50 mm of suspension plus up to 25 mm extra tyre radius, using a commercially available kit designed and tested for that vehicle at that height, fitted to instructions, with the kit maker's written statement kept by the owner (VSI 8). More than that needs a VASS signatory.
Do bigger tyres count towards the lift?
Yes. Tyre size adds to total height. On a 4WD, tyres can be up to 50 mm larger in diameter than the largest option the vehicle maker lists, provided they stay within the guards and don't foul anything (VSB 14 Section LS, VSI 8).
Does a lift kit increase my GVM?
No. A lift kit changes ride height and load handling, but your legal GVM only changes with a certified GVM upgrade.
Will a lift affect stability control and driver-assist systems?
It can. Victoria requires evidence that electronic stability control isn't affected, and a modification that stops systems like emergency braking or lane support working isn't acceptable (VSI 8). Ask us about your model before you buy.
My springs have sagged. Is replacing them a modification?
No. Restoring the vehicle to its original ride height is maintenance, not a modification (VSI 8).
