Dobinsons Heavy Duty Rear Leaf Springs for the Toyota Hilux N70 (2005-2015) replace the factory leaf pack with a heavier-grade spring steel design built for Australian conditions. Available in multiple constant-load ratings, they restore sagging rear height and lift payload capacity to carry canopies, tool boxes, bull bars and touring gear without bottoming out. Pair them with matched shock absorbers to keep damping balanced front and rear once the load changes. Dispatched from stock in Australia with Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty and fitment support from our suspension team.

Choose your leaf spring load rating based on what you carry day-to-day, not just occasionally. A tray back with a canopy, tool boxes, dual battery setup, water tanks or a fitted camper all add constant weight that a standard-rated spring will sag under over time. If you tow regularly, factor in tow ball download as well as tray load when selecting a heavier rating, and speak with our team if you're unsure which option suits your setup.
Fitment should be carried out by a qualified suspension fitter or an experienced DIY installer with the right tools for leaf spring and shackle work. A wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to correct the rear thrust angle and protect tyre wear. Allow a 500km settling-in period for the new leaf pack to seat before a final ride height check. If you're also upgrading the front end, consider pairing with correctly matched control arms to keep front and rear geometry consistent.
Dobinsons has built suspension components for Australian conditions for decades, with local testing behind their leaf spring and shock ranges. Their products are backed by a manufacturer's warranty against manufacturing defects and are widely used by tradespeople and remote-area tourers. You can view the full Dobinsons range to match these leaf springs with compatible shocks and other components.
These heavy-duty rear leaf springs suit tradies carrying tools and equipment daily, tourers loaded with camping gear, and owners towing caravans or trailers on a regular basis. If your load varies significantly trip to trip, also look at airbag suspension to fine-tune rear height under changing loads.

Yes, this Dobinsons Heavy Duty rear leaf spring set is built specifically for the Toyota Hilux N70 built between 2005 and 2015, covering the 2.5L and 3.0L turbo diesel and 2.7L and 4.0L V6 petrol variants. Fitment is model-specific to the N70 chassis, so it won't suit earlier or later Hilux generations without checking first. If you're unsure of your exact build date or engine, our team can confirm compatibility before you order.
These leaf springs are designed primarily to restore factory ride height and load capacity, with up to 2" of rear lift possible depending on the constant-load rating you choose. A lighter-rated spring under a heavy load will sag, reducing the effective lift, while a correctly matched rating holds height under your actual accessory weight. We recommend selecting the rating based on what you regularly carry rather than the highest option available.
The kit includes two Dobinsons Heavy Duty rear leaf spring assemblies with centre bolts and spring eye and shackle bushes fitted. Rear U-bolts and shock absorbers are not included and should be checked or ordered separately for your build. See our full kit contents list for the complete breakdown of what ships with this product.
Yes, these heavy-duty leaf springs are commonly fitted to Hilux N70 utes used for regular towing. Choosing a load rating that accounts for tow ball download, along with tray or canopy weight, keeps the rear sitting level rather than sagging under hitch weight. Pairing the springs with correctly rated shock absorbers helps control rear-end movement further when towing.
Control arm upgrades are generally not required for a rear leaf spring change on the Hilux N70, since control arms relate to the front independent suspension. If you're also lifting the front end with coil springs, pairing that with upgraded control arms helps maintain correct front geometry at the new ride height. Speak with our team if you're planning a full front and rear upgrade together.
Yes, a wheel alignment is required after installing new rear leaf springs to correct the rear thrust angle and protect tyre wear. Changes to ride height can shift alignment settings even at the rear axle. We recommend booking an alignment straight after fitment and again after the 500km settling-in period.
Yes, these Dobinsons rear leaf springs are available in multiple constant-load ratings so you can match the spring pack to your typical accessory and payload weight. A lighter rating suits an unladen or lightly accessorised ute, while a heavier rating suits a permanently fitted canopy, tool boxes or camper. Our team can help you pick the right rating based on what you regularly carry.
A rear-only lift from these leaf springs can improve rear tyre clearance slightly, but overall tyre size fitment also depends on your front suspension setup, wheel offset and any trimming. For a genuinely larger tyre fitment we recommend combining this rear leaf spring change with a matched front lift and checking clearance with our fitment team. Fitting oversized tyres without checking clearance can cause rubbing under articulation.
These Dobinsons leaf springs are backed by the manufacturer's warranty against manufacturing defects. If an issue arises with the spring pack under normal use, our team can help facilitate the warranty process with Dobinsons on your behalf. Keep your purchase receipt as proof of purchase for any warranty claim.
Yes, when the load rating is matched to your typical carrying weight, these leaf springs ride comfortably unladen while still providing the extra capacity you need when loaded. Choosing a rating higher than your actual constant load can make the unladen ride firmer than necessary. Our team can help you balance daily comfort against your work or touring load requirements.
