The Dobinsons Monotube Quick-Lift kit suits the Ford Ranger PX1 (2011-2015) and PX2 (2015-2018), pairing pre-assembled monotube front struts with matched coil springs and monotube rear shocks for a 2" lift front and rear. The quick-strut design bolts in as a complete unit, cutting strip-down time versus separate strut, spring and shock assembly. Extended rear shackles restore correct shackle angle at ride height, while the monotube design sheds heat faster than twin-tube shocks for steadier damping when towing.

Spring rate should match your constant accessory load, not just occasional cargo. Front-end weight from a steel bull bar, winch and driving lights, and rear weight from a tray, canopy, dual battery or long-range tank all pull ride height down over time. Common accessories to account for include: steel bull bar and winch, canopy or tray with tools, water tank, drawer systems and dual battery setups. If you're running heavier rear accessories permanently, ask our team about options in our coil springs range to better match your load.
This kit is best fitted by an experienced 4WD suspension installer or a qualified workshop, given the strut removal, shackle replacement and torque-to-spec requirements involved. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting — the 2" lift changes camber and caster, and correct alignment protects tyre wear and steering feel. Allow a 500km bed-in period for springs and bushes to settle before a final alignment check. Pair the kit with upgraded control arm upgrades to correct CV and driveshaft angles at the new ride height.

This kit suits Ranger PX1/PX2 owners running a bull bar, winch or canopy who need standard ride height restored along with a genuine 2" lift for clearance. It's a solid fit for tradies carrying tools daily and tourers running camper trailers or rooftop tents. If you're carrying variable heavy loads such as a caravan or slide-on camper, ask us about pairing this kit with airbag suspension for load-levelling on demand.
This Dobinsons Monotube Quick-Lift kit is dispatched from Australian stock with fitment support from our suspension specialists — contact our team if you need help matching spring rates or checking PX1/PX2 fitment before you order, or browse our full lift kit range for other Ranger options.

Yes, this Dobinsons Monotube Quick-Lift kit is designed specifically for Ford Ranger PX1 (2011-2015) and PX2 (2015-2018), covering both 2.2L and 3.2L TDCi variants. Confirm your build date and variant using our parts finder or contact our team if you're unsure which series you have. Getting the series right matters because strut and shackle mounting points differ across Ranger model updates.
The kit delivers a 2" lift at both the front and rear. Front lift comes from the pre-assembled monotube quick-strut with its matched coil spring, while rear lift comes from the extended shackles working with your factory leaf springs. This is a fixed lift height, not adjustable.
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 x Dobinsons Monotube Quick-Strut front assemblies (strut, coil spring and shock pre-assembled), 2 x Dobinsons Monotube rear shock absorbers, and 2 x Dobinsons extended rear shackles with mounting hardware. Rear leaf springs are not included — the kit uses your factory leaf pack with extended shackles to achieve the rear lift. Upper control arms are also sold separately. See the Kit Includes list above for the full breakdown.
Yes. The monotube shock design sheds heat faster than a twin-tube shock, which helps keep damping consistent when towing over long distances or corrugated roads. The matched coil spring rate is set for PX1/PX2 GVM including typical bull bar and winch combinations. For very heavy or variable rear loads, speak with our team about alternative spring options.
We recommend it. At 2" of lift, front control arm geometry and CV angles shift slightly from standard, and upgraded control arms help correct this and reduce vibration or premature CV wear. Browse our control arm range for PX1/PX2-specific options to pair with this kit.
Yes, a wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this kit. The 2" lift changes camber and caster from factory settings, and correct alignment protects tyre wear and keeps steering feel accurate. We suggest a follow-up alignment check after a 500km bed-in period once springs and bushes have settled.
This Quick-Lift kit ships with a coil spring matched to PX1/PX2 GVM and typical accessory loads. If you're carrying heavier constant rear loads such as a canopy and tools, speak with our team about coil or leaf spring options in our coil springs range to better match your setup.
A 2" lift typically creates clearance for a modest tyre size increase, but exact clearance depends on your wheel offset, tray or canopy fitment and whether flares are fitted. Contact our team with your intended tyre size so we can confirm clearance for your specific PX1/PX2 build before you order.
This kit is backed by a Dobinsons manufacturer warranty covering the struts, shocks and shackles against manufacturing defects. Contact our team for the specific warranty period and terms applicable to the Monotube Quick-Lift components before you order. Our Australian-based team can also assist with any warranty claims after purchase.
Yes. Dobinsons valves this kit for on-road comfort when unladen as well as off-road control when loaded, rather than a single-purpose off-road tune. It suits PX1/PX2 owners who drive daily with occasional touring or towing, without an overly firm or harsh ride around town.
