Choose your spring rate based on what you're carrying day to day, not just occasional loads. Front rate selection should account for a bullbar, winch and driving lights, while rear rate should reflect dual battery trays, long-range fuel tanks, drawer systems, fridges and a loaded tow ball weight. If you're unsure which combination suits your set-up, our team can match spring options to your accessory list before you order.
This kit is best fitted by an experienced 4WD workshop or a competent DIY installer with the correct tools for coil spring compression and shock removal. Wheel alignment is mandatory once the kit is fitted, as ride height and geometry change with the 2" lift. Allow a 500km bed-in period for the springs and shocks to settle before a final alignment check. These vehicles use a solid front axle on coil springs, located by radius arms and a panhard rod rather than IFS control arms, so geometry correction at lift height comes from caster-correction radius arm bushes or adjustable radius arms plus an adjustable panhard rod.

You can view the full Dobinsons range to compare this kit against their other LandCruiser options.
This kit suits LandCruiser 80/105 owners who tow a caravan or trailer, run a canopy and drawers for touring, or use the vehicle daily and off-road on weekends. Tradespeople carrying tools and equipment will notice the improved load support at the rear. If you're running a constant heavy load such as a slide-on camper, also look at airbag suspension to add adjustable support on top of this kit.

Yes, this Dobinsons Nitro Gas kit is built specifically for the coil-sprung Toyota LandCruiser 80 Series (1990-1997) and 105 Series (1998-2007). Both models share a coil-sprung front and rear axle layout, which is what this kit is designed around. If you're unsure of your exact model or build date, use our parts finder or contact our team with your VIN or compliance plate details before ordering.
This kit provides a 2" lift front and rear over standard ride height. The lift comes from the combination of raised coil springs and matched-length nitro gas shocks, so the vehicle sits evenly rather than lifted more at one end. This is enough clearance for larger tyres and improved approach and departure angles without extreme geometry changes.
Please note that all assembled struts are dispatched at a height based on our experience and the manufacturer’s specifications for the advertised lift. Coil springs and leaf springs are also manufactured according to the advertised height and constant-load rating. Actual vehicle height may vary depending on the vehicle and the weight of fitted accessories. Further adjustment may therefore be required after installation. The installer may use coil spacers or adjust the struts at their discretion to achieve the desired height. We are not responsible for vehicle-specific height variations or any additional adjustments required after installation.
This vehicle runs a solid front axle on coil springs, located by radius arms and a panhard rod, so there are no upper or lower control arms to upgrade like an IFS vehicle. At around 2" of lift most vehicles run the kit as supplied; taller lifts benefit from caster correction (offset radius arm bushes or adjustable radius arms) to restore steering self-centring, plus an adjustable panhard rod to re-centre the axle. Our team can advise what your lift height and build need.
Yes, this kit is a common choice for LandCruiser owners who tow caravans or trailers, as the raised rear coil springs support the additional tow ball weight better than a worn factory setup. For heavier or more constant towing loads, tell our team your typical tow ball weight so we can confirm the best spring rate for your combination. Nitro gas shocks also help control rear-end movement under load on the highway.

Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this lift kit. The 2" height change alters camber, caster and toe settings from factory specification. We recommend an alignment straight after fitment and a further check after the 500km bed-in period once springs and shocks have settled.
Spring rate should be matched to what you're carrying day to day, such as a bullbar and winch up front, or a canopy, drawers and fuel tank at the rear. Dobinsons offers spring options across their LandCruiser range to suit lighter touring set-ups through to heavier accessory loads. Tell our team your accessory list and typical load before ordering so we can confirm the right combination.
A 2" lift on the LandCruiser 80/105 Series typically allows for a modest increase in tyre diameter over standard, improving clearance around the guards and at full articulation. Exact tyre sizing depends on your wheel offset, guard trimming and driving style. Speak with our team about your intended tyre size so we can confirm it will clear with this kit fitted.
This kit is covered by a Dobinsons manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Exact warranty terms are confirmed at the time of purchase and cover the shock absorbers and coil springs supplied in the kit. Keep your proof of purchase and have the kit fitted correctly, including post-install alignment, to keep your warranty valid.
Yes, this kit is designed to retain a comfortable ride for daily driving while adding capability for touring and towing on weekends. The nitro gas shocks are tuned to control body movement without the harsh ride associated with heavy-duty off-road-only setups. Most LandCruiser 80/105 owners run this kit as their everyday suspension, not just for occasional off-road trips.
