Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for optimal performance, ride quality, and component longevity. Choose your front and rear spring rates based on constant load only — permanent accessories that remain on your vehicle at all times. Do not factor in occasional loads such as camping gear, passengers for weekend trips, or intermittent towing — selecting overly heavy springs for occasional use results in harsh ride quality, premature bushing wear, and increased stress on chassis mounts.
Common Front Constant Loads: Steel bull bar, winch (12,000lb+ adds 40-60kg), driving lights, UHF antenna, aftermarket battery system. Common Rear Constant Loads: Steel canopy or alloy tray, dual battery system, drawer systems, long-range fuel tanks, rear bar, water tanks (if permanently fitted). If you regularly tow heavy caravans or trailers, consider pairing this kit with airbag suspension to maintain level ride height without over-springing the vehicle.
This kit is designed for installation by qualified mechanics or highly experienced DIY enthusiasts with appropriate spring compressors, torque wrenches, and workshop facilities. Professional installation is strongly recommended to ensure correct torque specifications, shock orientation, and brake line clearances. A full four-wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to ensure correct camber, caster, and toe settings — failure to align will result in premature tyre wear and compromised handling.
Allow a 500km break-in period for springs to settle and bushings to seat before re-checking alignment and ride height — some settling (5-10mm) is normal during this period. Depending on your total lift height and vehicle use, you may benefit from upgrading to aftermarket upper control arms to restore ball joint angles and improve wheel alignment range. Consult your installer or our technical team regarding diff drop kits, extended brake lines, or castor correction requirements specific to your setup.
Dobinsons has been engineering premium suspension solutions for over six decades, earning a reputation as one of Australia's most trusted 4WD suspension brands through relentless testing in outback, desert, coastal, and alpine conditions. Every Dobinsons product is designed to withstand the unique demands of Australian touring — extreme heat, corrugations, salt exposure, and remote reliability requirements that separate genuine off-road components from light-duty alternatives. Backed by comprehensive warranty coverage and supported by a nationwide dealer network, the Dobinsons suspension range is the choice of serious tourers, professional outfitters, and mining operators who depend on their vehicles in the harshest environments.
This MRA Easy-Lift kit is ideal for Hilux N70 owners who demand maximum versatility — tradespeople running varying loads throughout the week, touring families who switch between solo commuting and fully-loaded expeditions, and caravan towers who need towing stability without sacrificing unladen ride quality. The adjustable height feature makes this kit perfect for owners who frequently change tyre sizes, fit seasonal accessories, or share their vehicle between different drivers with varying load preferences. If you regularly carry extreme rear loads or tow heavy trailers, consider adding airbag suspension for on-demand load support without the penalty of overly stiff spring rates.

This kit is specifically engineered for Toyota Hilux N70 models manufactured between 2005 and 2015, covering all variants including SR, SR5, and Workmate in both petrol and diesel configurations. The kit fits single cab, extra cab, and dual cab body styles without modification. If you have aftermarket accessories or a non-standard configuration, we recommend checking our N70 Hilux parts finder or contacting our technical team to confirm compatibility with your specific setup.
This MRA Easy-Lift kit provides adjustable lift height ranging from 0mm up to approximately 50mm depending on spring selection, adjuster setting, and constant vehicle load. The front coilover struts feature threaded spring seats that allow infinite adjustment within this range without changing springs, while rear lift is determined by spring rate selection and the 2-inch extended shackles. Final ride height will vary based on your accessories, so you can dial in the perfect height to suit bullbar weight, canopy selection, and desired tyre clearance.
The kit includes everything needed for a complete front and rear suspension upgrade: 2 x pre-assembled MRA adjustable coilover struts (front) with Dobinsons coil springs and new strut top mounts, 2 x MRA remote reservoir shock absorbers (rear), 2 x remote reservoir mounting brackets, 2 x coilover adjusting C spanners for height adjustment, and 2 x 2-inch extended heavy-duty greasable shackles. You select your preferred front and rear spring rates during checkout based on your constant accessory load. Additional components such as upper control arms, diff drop kits, extended brake lines, or alignment correction items are sold separately as required.
Yes, this kit is excellent for towing when matched with the correct rear spring rate for your towing frequency and trailer weight. The MRA remote reservoir shocks provide superior fade resistance and damping consistency under sustained load, while the load-matched springs maintain level ride height and reduce rear squat. For regular towing of heavy caravans (2000kg+), we strongly recommend adding airbag suspension to provide on-demand load support without over-springing the vehicle for unladen driving. This combination delivers optimal ride quality both loaded and unloaded.
For moderate lift heights (25-35mm), factory control arms are generally adequate on the N70 Hilux, though a professional alignment is mandatory to ensure geometry remains within acceptable limits. If you're running maximum lift height (45-50mm), larger tyres, or experiencing alignment issues such as insufficient caster or camber adjustment range, upgraded aftermarket control arms may be beneficial. Aftermarket upper control arms restore ball joint angles, increase wheel alignment range, and improve steering feel at increased ride heights. Consult your installer or our technical team based on your specific lift height and wheel/tyre combination.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any lift kit, including this Dobinsons MRA system. Changing ride height alters suspension geometry including camber, caster, and toe angles — driving without proper alignment will cause rapid and uneven tyre wear, poor handling characteristics, and potentially unsafe steering behaviour. We recommend alignment be performed by a qualified shop experienced with lifted 4WDs, and rechecked after the initial 500km break-in period once springs have fully settled and components have seated. Proper alignment ensures maximum tyre life, predictable handling, and safe on-road and off-road performance.
Select spring rates based exclusively on your constant accessory load — permanent items that remain on your vehicle at all times such as bull bars, winches, canopies, drawer systems, dual battery setups, and long-range fuel tanks. Do not factor in occasional loads like camping gear, extra passengers, or intermittent towing, as this will result in overly stiff springs that deliver harsh ride quality and accelerated wear on bushings and chassis mounts. If you're unsure about your constant load weight or which spring rate to select, contact our technical team with a list of your fitted accessories — we'll recommend the optimal front and rear spring combination for your specific setup.
This lift kit significantly improves tyre clearance on the Hilux N70, with most configurations comfortably fitting 32-inch tyres (265/75R16 or 285/70R17) without rubbing at full compression or steering lock. Clearance for 33-inch tyres may be possible depending on wheel offset, total lift height achieved, and whether you perform minor trimming of plastic inner guards. Actual tyre fitment depends on wheel backspacing, suspension droop, and bump stop setup, so we recommend consulting with your installer about your specific wheel and tyre combination. Remember that larger, heavier tyres may require recalibrating your spring rate selection to maintain optimal ride height and handling.
Dobinsons backs this MRA Easy-Lift kit with comprehensive manufacturer warranty coverage against defects in materials and workmanship, providing peace of mind for your investment in premium suspension components. Specific warranty terms and duration vary by component type — shock absorbers, springs, and hardware each carry their own coverage periods as detailed in the included warranty documentation. Warranty coverage requires professional installation, proper vehicle use within load ratings, and regular maintenance including appropriate service intervals. For complete warranty terms, conditions, and claim procedures, contact our team or refer to the warranty card included with your kit.
Absolutely — when matched with the correct spring rates for your constant load, this kit delivers excellent on-road ride quality suitable for daily commuting, highway travel, and family duties. The progressive-rate coil springs and velocity-sensitive MRA damping provide comfortable, controlled ride characteristics that outperform many factory suspension systems, particularly on vehicles with heavy-duty or worn original components. Unlike extreme off-road setups, this kit balances touring comfort with off-road capability, making it ideal for dual-purpose vehicles that see both weekday commuting and weekend adventure use. The adjustable height feature allows you to optimize ride height for different driving conditions or seasonal tyre changes.
Perfect Setup for Our Family Adventures
Fitted this Dobinsons lift kit to my Hilux about six months ago and it's transformed our weekend camping trips. The adjustable coilovers let me dial in the perfect height whether we're loaded up with the camper trailer or just running around town during the week. Ride quality is noticeably smoother on corrugated tracks compared to the old setup, and the kids have stopped complaining about getting bounced around in the back seats.(5)
Perfect Setup for Work and Weekend Runs
Had the Dobinsons adjustable kit fitted to my 2012 Hilux about six months back and it's been absolutely spot on. Cops a flogging daily with tools and materials in the tray, then handles the beach and bush tracks on the weekend without breaking a sweat. The ride quality is heaps better than the old setup, even when I'm loaded up, and being able to adjust the height has been really handy. Well worth the coin if you're after a proper suspension upgrade.(5)
Outstanding kit for serious remote touring
Been running this Dobinsons adjustable lift kit for 8 months now across Simpson Desert and Canning Stock Route, and it's completely transformed how my N70 handles corrugations and rough tracks. The ability to adjust ride height depending on load has been a game-changer when switching between solo trips and fully loaded expeditions. Build quality is top-notch and the remote reservoir shocks stay cool even on extended washboard sections where cheaper setups would fade.(5)
Perfect Upgrade for Our Family Touring Setup
Fitted the Dobinsons adjustable lift kit to our N70 last month and it's transformed how the Hilux handles on our regular trips down to the Victorian High Country. The ride quality is noticeably smoother even with the camper trailer loaded up, and being able to dial in the height has been brilliant for different touring conditions. Installation was straightforward and the build quality of the MRA shocks is absolutely top-notch – you can tell these are built to last.(5)
Best upgrade I've made to the Hilux
Had the Dobinsons kit fitted to my 2012 Hilux about six months back and it's been absolutely brilliant for daily drives to site and weekend trips down the coast. The adjustable height is a game changer when I'm loaded up with tools and materials versus running empty. Ride quality is so much better than the old setup, especially on corrugated dirt roads, and the blokes at 4WD Suspension had it delivered within a few days.(5)
