The Dobinsons IMS 4" Lift Kit suits the Toyota Hilux N80 (2015-ON) and pairs monotube coilover front monotube shocks for compression and rebound control. The kit lifts the front 4" and the rear 3" using Dobinsons 3" raised load-rated leaf springs, and includes a diff drop kit to correct CV angles at full lift. Front control arms are included to restore camber and caster geometry, and you can check all suspension parts for the Hilux N80 using our fitment tool. Dispatched from Australian stock with Dobinsons warranty and expert fitment support from our team.

Lift height compliance: Suspension lifts of this size may exceed your state's allowable limit without engineering certification. Check your state's light vehicle modification rules (VSB14/NCOP) before fitting.
Choosing the right rear leaf spring rate comes down to what sits on the vehicle day to day. A ute running a steel canopy, dual battery tray, drawer system and long-range fuel tank needs a firmer rear spring than one running a tub liner and occasional camping gear. Front spring or coilover preload should also account for a steel bull bar or winch, which adds constant weight ahead of the front axle. Tell our team your typical accessory load and we can confirm the right spring rate for this kit.
This kit involves diff drop brackets, control arm replacement and leaf spring changeover, so we recommend an experienced 4WD suspension workshop rather than a driveway DIY fit. Wheel alignment is mandatory once the kit is installed — camber, caster and toe all shift at a 4" lift and must be reset before the vehicle goes back on the road. Allow a 500km break-in period for the leaf springs and shock bushes to settle before final alignment and damping adjustment. For a full geometry correction at this lift height, pair this kit with our suspension components range if any additional hardware is needed.
Dobinsons has been developing 4WD suspension in Australia for decades, with lift kits designed and tested against local conditions rather than adapted from overseas market kits. This IMS kit is backed by a Dobinsons manufacturer warranty covering manufacturing defects on shocks and springs, giving tradespeople and tourers cover on a kit that sees regular load-carrying use. You can view the full Dobinsons suspension range to compare this kit against other lift heights and shock options for the N80.
This kit suits Hilux N80 owners running a canopy and trade gear, tourers fitting drawers, water tanks and rooftop tents, and anyone regularly towing a camper or caravan. If your rear load varies significantly between empty and fully loaded, our airbag suspension range can be added to level the rear under variable towing loads.

Yes, this Dobinsons IMS 4" lift kit is built specifically for the Toyota Hilux N80 produced from 2015 onwards, covering 2.4L and 2.8L turbo-diesel variants as well as 2.7L and 4.0L petrol variants including SR, SR5, Rogue and Rugged X. Fitment can differ slightly between build dates and variants, so confirm your exact model using our parts finder. Our team can check your rego or VIN details before you order if you're unsure.
This kit provides a 4" front lift and a 3" rear lift on the Hilux N80. Front lift comes from the Dobinsons IMS monotube coilovers, while rear lift comes from the included Dobinsons 3" raised load-rated leaf spring assemblies. The diff drop kit is included specifically to correct CV joint angles that result from lifting the front this far.
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.
The kit includes front IMS adjustable monotube coilover shocks, rear IMS monotube shocks, Dobinsons 3" raised rear leaf spring assemblies, front upper control arms, a diff drop kit with brackets, adjuster spanners and all mounting hardware. Everything needed to lift the front 4" and the rear 3" and correct front-end geometry is included in the one kit. Fitting instructions are supplied, and our team is available if your workshop needs support during installation.
Yes, the rear leaf springs in this kit are selected to handle constant accessory loads such as canopies, drawers and touring gear, which also suits regular towing use. For variable loads — towing sometimes and running empty other times — we'd recommend adding airbag suspension to level the rear under tow. Talk to our team about your typical trailer or caravan ball weight before ordering.
No separate purchase is needed — front upper control arms are already included in this kit. They're specified to correct the camber and caster angles that change once the N80 is lifted 4", so the geometry is addressed as part of the full kit rather than left to the factory arms.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this kit. A 4" lift changes camber, caster and toe settings on the Hilux N80, and running it unaligned will cause uneven tyre wear and affect steering feel. We recommend an alignment straight after fitment and a follow-up check after the 500km break-in period.
Rear leaf spring rate can be matched to your typical accessory load — a canopy, drawers and long-range fuel tank need a firmer spring than light touring use. Tell our team what's fitted to your Hilux N80, including bull bar and winch weight up front, and we'll confirm the right spring option for this kit before you order.
A 4" lift on the Hilux N80 generally clears larger tyres, commonly up to 33-35 inch depending on wheel width and offset. Guard trimming may still be needed on some variants, particularly Rogue and Rugged X with wider guard flares. Confirm your target tyre size with our team so we can advise on clearance for your specific setup.
This kit is backed by a Dobinsons manufacturer warranty covering manufacturing defects on the shocks, springs and included hardware. As an Australian stockist, we also provide fitment support and can help coordinate a warranty claim directly with Dobinsons if an issue arises. Keep your purchase invoice and fitment date on file for any warranty claim.
Yes, the height adjustment on the front coilovers lets you soften the ride for daily driving and firm it up for load carrying or off-road work. Many Hilux N80 owners run this kit as their daily driver while still using the vehicle for towing and touring on weekends. The monotube shock design is intended to hold consistent damping performance across both everyday and loaded driving.
