The Dobinsons Monotube IFP Lift Kit suits the Nissan Patrol Y62 (2010-ON) and delivers a 2" lift front and rear using monotube shocks with externally adjustable front damping and vehicle-specific coil springs. The internal floating piston design separates oil and gas to reduce foaming and fade on long touring runs, while matched front and rear springs restore ride height for bull bars, winches and touring accessories. In stock in Australia with full manufacturer warranty and fitment support from our Dobinsons specialists.

Choose your spring rate based on the constant weight you carry, not just occasional loads. Front accessories like a steel bull bar and winch add sustained weight over the front axle, while rear accessories like drawers, a fridge, water and long-range fuel tanks load the rear constantly. Tell our team your typical accessory and touring load and we'll confirm the right spring for your Y62 before you order.
This kit is best fitted by an experienced 4WD suspension installer or a competent DIY mechanic with the correct strut compressor tools for strut-type front ends. A wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to bring camber and toe back within spec at the new ride height. Allow a 500km break-in period for the springs to settle and the shocks to free up before final assessment of ride height. Consider pairing this kit with upgraded control arms to correct front-end geometry and CV joint angles at the 2" lift height.
Dobinsons has built 4WD suspension components for Australian conditions for decades, with local testing informing shock valving and spring rates for popular tourers like the Y62 Patrol. Kits are backed by a manufacturer warranty and are trusted by tourers and tradespeople running heavy accessory setups. Browse the full Dobinsons range to see matching components for other parts of your Patrol's suspension.
This kit suits Y62 Patrol owners fitting bull bars, winches, drawer systems or roof-top tents who need the ride height and damping to match the added weight. It's a solid fit for weekend tourers and grey nomads towing a camper trailer or caravan. If you're carrying a genuinely heavy constant rear load such as a slide-on canopy, also look at our airbag suspension options to fine-tune rear load support.

Yes, this Dobinsons Monotube IFP Lift Kit is built specifically for the Nissan Patrol Y62 from 2010 onwards, fitted with the factory 5.6L V8 petrol engine. It uses the Y62's factory strut-type front end and coil-sprung rear, so no chassis modification is needed. If you're running a non-standard front end or an older Patrol (GU or earlier), this kit is not the right fit. Check our parts finder for the Patrol Y62 to confirm your exact variant.
This kit provides a 2" lift front and rear over standard ride height. That's enough to clear larger tyres and restore height lost to a bull bar or winch, without pushing the Y62 into geometry problems that need major driveline modification. Actual ride height achieved depends on the spring rate selected for your accessory load. Our team can confirm expected height for your specific build before you order.
The kit includes 2 x Dobinsons Monotube IFP front struts with externally adjustable damping, 2 x Dobinsons Monotube IFP rear shocks, and matched front and rear coil springs for the 2" lift. Mounting hardware and bushes are included for both front and rear installation. Upper control arms are not included and are sold separately if your alignment shop recommends them at this lift height. Full fitting instructions come with the kit.
Yes, the rear coil spring rate can be matched to your typical towball weight and constant rear load, which is what supports towing performance rather than the lift height itself. The monotube IFP rear shocks help control sway and pitching from a loaded trailer or caravan. Tell us your tow setup and rear accessory load and we'll confirm the right spring for consistent ride height while towing. For very heavy constant rear loads, pairing with airbag suspension is worth considering.
At a 2" lift, many Y62 owners run the factory control arms without issue, but correcting front-end geometry with upgraded control arms can improve CV joint angles and camber adjustment range. Whether you need them depends on your alignment shop's findings after fitment. We recommend getting an alignment check first and adding control arms only if the shop flags an issue. Our team can advise based on your intended use, whether it's touring or regular highway driving.
Yes, a wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this kit. Ride height changes at both axles will shift camber and toe outside factory specification. Get the alignment done after the 500km break-in period once the springs and shocks have settled to their final position. Skipping alignment will cause uneven tyre wear and can affect handling.
Yes, Dobinsons offers spring rate options for both front and rear to suit different constant accessory loads on the Y62. Front rates account for bull bars and winches, while rear rates account for drawers, fridges, water and long-range fuel tanks. Tell our team your typical loaded weight and we'll match the correct spring rate before dispatch. Getting this right avoids sagging or an overly firm ride.
The 2" lift provided by this kit creates additional clearance that suits a moderate increase in tyre diameter over standard. Exact tyre and wheel clearance depends on your wheel offset and width, so check your specific tyre size with our team before purchasing. We can advise on suitable tyre sizes based on other Y62 fitments we've supported. Rubbing at full lock or full compression should always be checked after fitment.
This kit is covered by Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty, which applies to genuine defects in the shocks and springs from normal use. Full warranty terms are confirmed at the point of sale and vary by component. Keep your proof of purchase and have the kit fitted correctly, including alignment, to keep the warranty valid. Contact our team if you have a warranty question on a fitted kit.
Yes, the Dobinsons Monotube IFP design is set up to balance daily on-road comfort with off-road control, rather than being a harsh, track-focused setup. The externally adjustable front damping lets you fine-tune the ride if you find it firmer than you'd like for daily commuting. Many Y62 owners run this kit as their daily driver and switch to a firmer setting for touring or towing trips. Selecting the correct spring rate for your actual daily load also keeps the ride comfortable.
