Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for optimal performance and ride quality with your Dobinsons MRA lift kit. During checkout, you must specify your current constant load only—this means accessories and equipment permanently fitted to your vehicle, not occasional loads. Common front constant loads include steel bullbars (30-50kg), winches (35-45kg), upgraded batteries, long-range fuel tanks, and heavy-duty intercoolers. Rear constant loads typically include drawer systems (40-80kg), dual battery setups, water tanks, fixed storage solutions, canopies or hardtops, and rear bars. Occasional loads such as camping gear, passengers, firewood, recovery equipment, and towing are specifically NOT considered constant loads. Selecting heavier spring rates than required will result in harsh ride quality, premature wear of other suspension components, and reduced shock absorber effectiveness.
Professional installation by an experienced 4WD suspension specialist is strongly recommended for this comprehensive lift kit to ensure correct fitment, proper shock mounting, and optimal damping adjustment setup. Wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory following installation to prevent premature tyre wear and maintain safe handling characteristics—factory alignment specifications will no longer be suitable with increased ride height. A 500-kilometer break-in period is essential to allow springs to settle and shocks to bed in properly before making fine-tuning adjustments to the 3-way damping system. Depending on your lift configuration and intended use, upgrading to extended control arms may be recommended to restore optimal suspension geometry, improve wheel travel, and reduce CV joint angle concerns for maximum component longevity.
Dobinsons has earned an unrivaled reputation across Australia and internationally for engineering premium 4WD suspension systems that withstand the harshest outback conditions while delivering exceptional comfort and control. Every component undergoes rigorous real-world testing on Australian corrugations, desert crossings, and coastal tracks—not just laboratory simulations—ensuring proven reliability for serious tourers, tradespeople, and off-road enthusiasts. Backed by comprehensive warranty coverage and supported by decades of suspension expertise, the complete Dobinsons range represents the benchmark for Australian 4WD suspension performance and durability.
This premium MRA Adjustable lift kit is perfectly suited for dedicated touring enthusiasts covering vast distances with roof-top tents and touring equipment, tradespeople requiring reliable load-carrying capability with tools and materials, caravan and camper trailer towers demanding stable towing performance, and serious off-road adventurers who demand adjustable performance across varying terrain. If you frequently carry heavy rear loads or tow close to your vehicle's maximum capacity, consider pairing this kit with supplementary airbag suspension for on-demand load support and fine-tuned rear height control without compromising unladen ride quality.

This Dobinsons MRA Adjustable 2" lift kit is specifically engineered for all Toyota Landcruiser Prado 150 Series models from 2009 to current, including GX, GXL, VX, and Kakadu variants. It fits all engine options including the 2.8L turbo diesel (1GD-FTV), 3.0L turbo diesel (1KD-FTV), and 4.0L petrol V6 (1GR-FE). The kit is compatible with both early and late model 150 Series, accommodating factory coil spring front and rear suspension configurations. If you're unsure about your specific variant or have modified suspension components, our team can verify exact fitment before dispatch.
This Dobinsons MRA kit delivers a genuine 2" (approximately 50mm) of lift height over factory specifications when correctly installed and settled. This lift capacity typically allows fitment of 32-33" tyres (265/70R17 or 265/65R18 depending on wheel size) without requiring additional modifications like body mount chops or extensive trimming. Actual tyre clearance depends on wheel offset, tyre brand/tread pattern, and whether you're using aftermarket wheels. For 33" tyres or larger, minor trimming of plastic liner components may be required during full suspension articulation, and extended radius arms or upper control arms are recommended for optimal geometry.
This complete kit includes 2 x Dobinsons MRA adjustable front shock absorbers with remote reservoirs, 2 x matched front coil springs, 2 x MRA adjustable rear shock absorbers with remote reservoirs, 2 x matched rear coil springs, plus all necessary installation hardware and mounting brackets. The spring rates are custom-selected during ordering based on your constant accessory load requirements. Note that upper control arms, extended brake lines, diff drop kits, and sway bar links are not included but may be recommended depending on your specific vehicle configuration and intended use.
Yes, the Dobinsons MRA Adjustable kit excels at towing applications thanks to its 3-way damping adjustability and premium monotube design. You can increase low-speed compression damping to control pitch and squat when hitched, while high-speed compression manages rough road impacts, and rebound adjustment prevents excessive oscillation. The matched coil springs provide excellent load support when properly specified for your constant rear accessories. For maximum towing versatility and the ability to level your vehicle under varying towball loads, consider adding airbag suspension as a supplementary system that works perfectly alongside this lift kit for on-demand rear height and load control.
While not absolutely mandatory for a 2" lift on the 150 Series, upgraded upper control arms are highly recommended for optimal suspension geometry, increased wheel travel, and reduced CV joint operating angles. Extended control arms help restore proper castor angle which improves highway handling and steering feel after lifting. If you're planning serious off-road use, frequent towing, or want to maximize the longevity of CV joints and other drivetrain components, investing in quality control arms at the time of lift installation is worthwhile. Our team can recommend the best control arm options based on your specific driving requirements and budget.
Professional wheel alignment is absolutely essential after installing any lift kit, including this Dobinsons MRA system. Raising your vehicle's ride height alters suspension geometry and changes alignment angles including castor, camber, and toe settings beyond factory specifications. Without proper alignment, you'll experience accelerated and uneven tyre wear, poor handling characteristics, steering pull, and potentially unsafe driving dynamics. The alignment must be performed after installation and initial settling period (approximately 500km), and the technician should use updated specifications appropriate for lifted vehicles rather than factory settings.
Spring rate selection must be based exclusively on your current constant load—permanent accessories fitted to your vehicle, not occasional loads. For the front, measure the total weight of bullbar, winch, upgraded intercooler, long-range fuel tank, driving lights, and upgraded batteries. For the rear, include drawer systems, dual battery setups, canopy or hardtop, rear bar, fixed water tanks, and permanent storage solutions. Do NOT include camping gear, passengers, firewood, tools, or towing in your calculations as these are occasional loads. Selecting springs that are too heavy results in harsh ride quality and potential damage to other suspension components, while springs too light will sag and compromise handling.
With this 2" Dobinsons MRA lift kit properly installed, most 150 Series Prados can accommodate 265/70R17 tyres (approximately 32") or 265/65R18 tyres without significant modifications. Some owners successfully run 285/70R17 tyres (approximately 33") with careful attention to wheel offset and minor trimming of plastic inner guards during full articulation. Actual clearance depends heavily on wheel offset, tyre brand and tread pattern, whether you're using aftermarket wheels, and your driving style. For clearance of 33" tyres and larger, upgraded upper control arms are strongly recommended to improve wheel travel and prevent rubbing at full lock or compression.
Dobinsons provides comprehensive warranty coverage on all MRA shock absorbers and coil springs against manufacturing defects and premature failure under normal use conditions. Specific warranty terms vary by component, with shock absorbers typically covered for defects in materials and workmanship, and coil springs warranted against sagging and breakage. Warranty coverage requires professional installation by a qualified suspension specialist, adherence to recommended service intervals, and proper spring rate selection based on actual constant loads. Full warranty details and registration information are included with your kit, and our team can answer specific coverage questions before purchase.
Absolutely—the Dobinsons MRA Adjustable lift kit delivers exceptional on-road comfort and highway manners while providing extreme off-road capability when needed. The 3-way damping adjustment allows you to dial in soft compression settings for comfortable daily commuting and highway cruising, then quickly adjust to firmer settings for off-road adventures, heavy loads, or towing. The monotube design and reduced internal friction provide noticeably smoother damping response compared to traditional twin-tube shocks. Many owners run comfortable settings for 90% of their driving, only adjusting damping when conditions demand it, making this kit perfect for vehicles that serve dual-duty as daily drivers and weekend touring rigs.
Perfect Setup for Family Touring Adventures
Been running this Dobinsons lift kit for about six months now, doing monthly trips down to the Victorian High Country with the family and all our camping gear loaded up. The adjustable damping is brilliant – I can soften it up for the kids when we're on corrugations, then firm it back up when towing the camper trailer. Ride quality is miles better than the old setup, and the missus has even commented on how much more comfortable the long drives are now.(5)
Perfect Setup for Family Touring Adventures
Finally got the Dobinsons lift kit fitted to our 150 and the difference on our last trip down to Wilson's Prom was night and day. The adjustable damping means we can soften things up when it's just the family on sealed roads, then firm it up when we're loaded with camping gear heading off-road. Ride quality is genuinely impressive - the kids actually stopped complaining about the corrugations! Well worth the investment for anyone doing serious touring.(5)
Best upgrade I've made to the 150
Had these Dobinsons shocks and springs fitted about 6 months ago and they've completely transformed the work ute. Daily driving with a loaded tray is actually comfortable now, and the adjustable damping means I can dial it up when I'm heading out bush on the weekends. Installation was straightforward and the quality is top notch - you can tell these are built to handle Aussie conditions.(5)
Perfect Setup for Remote Outback Work
Been running this Dobinsons MRA lift kit on my 150 for about 8 months now, covering everything from the Canning Stock Route to Cape York's roughest sections. The adjustable damping is brilliant – I can dial it down for corrugations on long desert runs and firm it up when loaded with gear and water. Ride quality is miles ahead of my old setup, and the monotube design hasn't missed a beat despite the punishment I've thrown at it.(5)
Perfect Setup for Our Family Adventures
Been running this Dobinsons lift kit on our Prado for six months now, tackling everything from beach sand to the high country tracks. The adjustable damping is brilliant - comfortable enough for the kids on highway runs to Melbourne, but firm it up and it handles corrugations and loaded touring like a dream. Fitment was spot on and the ride quality is leagues ahead of the old setup. Worth every cent for anyone serious about family touring.(5)
