The Dobinsons Monotube IFP Lift Kit gives the Toyota LandCruiser Prado 120 Series (2002-2009) a 2" lift front and rear using pre-assembled front struts and monotube shocks with an internal floating piston for consistent damping on long corrugated stretches. Rear coil springs are available in standard or constant-load rates to suit bar work, bullbars and touring gear. This premium lift kit ships from Australian stock with a manufacturer warranty and fitment guidance from our team. Pre-assembly means less time under the vehicle and a straightforward swap for experienced installers.

Choose your rear spring rate based on the constant weight you carry — not just the heaviest load you occasionally haul. A vehicle running a steel bullbar, winch, second battery, long-range fuel tank and drawer system needs a firmer constant-load rear spring than a lightly accessorised tourer. If your accessory load varies trip to trip, pair a standard-rate spring with airbag suspension to fine-tune ride height on demand.
This kit is best fitted by an experienced 4WD suspension installer or a competent DIY mechanic with a spring compressor and hoist access. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting to reset camber, caster and toe at the new 2" ride height. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for shocks and springs to settle before final alignment. Consider pairing the kit with upgraded control arm upgrades to correct CV and caster angles fully at lift height.
Dobinsons has built 4WD suspension for Australian conditions for decades, with monotube and IFP shock technology developed for long-distance touring and load-carrying work. Every kit is backed by a manufacturer warranty and sold through 4WD Suspension with Australian-based fitment support. Tradespeople and tourers running Prado 120s choose Dobinsons for its pre-assembled strut design and spring rate options — view the full Dobinsons range for other Toyota applications.
This kit suits Prado 120 owners running bullbars, winches, drawer systems or roof racks who need the front end to sit level and the rear to handle constant touring or trade loads. It's a solid fit for weekend tourers, remote-area travellers and tradespeople carrying tools and equipment daily. Owners with highly variable loads — towing a van some weeks, running empty others — should also look at airbag suspension to complement the coil springs.

Yes, the Dobinsons Monotube IFP Lift Kit (DMLP120N) is built specifically for the Toyota LandCruiser Prado 120 Series produced from 2002 to 2009, covering both the 3.0L D4D diesel and 4.0L V6 petrol variants. It is not a generic fit-all kit — the front struts and rear springs are matched to the 120 Series chassis and mounting points. If you're unsure of your exact build date or variant, check our parts finder or contact our team before ordering. We can confirm compatibility using your rego or VIN details.
This kit delivers a 2" lift front and rear on the Prado 120 Series when fitted with the matching rear coil spring rate. Actual ride height gained depends on vehicle weight, accessories already fitted and the spring rate selected at checkout. Front struts are pre-assembled at this lift height, so no separate spring compression is needed on install. Rear lift can vary slightly with constant-load spring options.
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 2 pre-assembled Dobinsons Monotube IFP front strut assemblies, 2 Monotube IFP rear shock absorbers, 2 rear coil springs in your selected rate, front and rear bump stops, and mounting hardware. Fitting instructions are included. Upper control arms are not included and are sold separately if you need corrected geometry at height. See the full kit contents list on this page for exact quantities.
Yes, when fitted with the constant-load rear spring option this kit supports vehicles carrying tow ball weight, bullbars, winches and drawer systems. The monotube IFP rear shocks help control rear-end movement under load compared to factory twin-tube units. If your towing load varies significantly between trips, pair the springs with airbag suspension for adjustable support. Talk to our team about matching spring rate to your typical tow setup before ordering.
At a 2" lift, upper control arm angles change enough to affect caster and CV joint angle on the Prado 120. We recommend upgraded control arms to correct this geometry and reduce driveline vibration or premature CV wear. It's not always mandatory at this lift height, but many installers fit them as standard practice. Ask our team for a recommendation based on your specific accessory load and lift height.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this kit. Camber, caster and toe all shift once the vehicle sits at the new 2" ride height, and skipping alignment leads to uneven tyre wear and handling changes. We recommend a 500km bedding-in period before the final alignment so springs and shocks settle fully. Book alignment with a shop familiar with lifted 4WDs where possible.
Yes, Dobinsons offers standard and constant-load rear coil spring options for this kit, selectable to suit your accessory load. Choose a firmer constant-load spring if you run a steel bullbar, winch, long-range tank or drawer system permanently. Choose the standard rate if your Prado carries lighter, occasional gear. Our team can help you pick the right rate based on your setup before you check out.
A 2" lift on the Prado 120 typically creates clearance for a modest tyre size increase over standard, though exact clearance depends on wheel offset, width and any additional flares or trimming. We recommend confirming your intended tyre size with our team before ordering to avoid rubbing on full-lock turns or compression. Wheel alignment and correct offset selection also affect final clearance.
This Dobinsons Monotube IFP Lift Kit is covered by the Dobinsons manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. 4WD Suspension also provides fitment support if you have questions before or after installation. Retain your proof of purchase for warranty claims. Contact our team for the specific warranty period and claims process.
Yes, the Monotube IFP shocks are designed to keep highway ride quality close to factory feel while adding control for rough roads and touring conditions. Many Prado 120 owners run this kit as a daily driver that also handles weekend touring and towing duties. Selecting the correct spring rate for your everyday load helps keep the ride comfortable rather than firm and jarring. It is not a race or extreme rock-crawling setup — it's built for balanced on- and off-road use.
