Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for optimal ride quality, handling safety, and component longevity. When ordering this kit, choose spring rates based solely on your constant accessory load — permanent additions like bull bars, winches, canopies, drawer systems, roof racks, dual battery setups, and long-range fuel tanks. Occasional loads such as camping gear, passengers, firewood, or towing a caravan should NOT be considered constant load — these are best managed using the adjustable damping settings or supplementary airbag suspension for heavy towers. Front load typically includes bull bar (30-50kg), winch (30-40kg), upgraded bar with side rails (50-70kg), and aftermarket battery systems. Rear constant load includes canopy or tub (40-80kg), drawer systems (50-100kg), dual spare wheels (40-60kg), long-range tanks (empty weight 20-40kg), and fixed rear bars. Selecting a spring rate that's too heavy for your actual constant load will result in harsh ride quality, reduced wheel articulation, premature bushing wear, and potential damage to chassis mounts and suspension components.
Professional installation by a qualified 4WD suspension specialist is strongly recommended to ensure correct fitment, torque specifications, and initial damper settings. Installation typically takes 4-6 hours and requires specialized spring compressors, torque wrenches, and alignment equipment. 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. After installation, observe a 500km break-in period during which springs will settle and dampers will bed in — avoid harsh off-road use and heavy loads during this period. Depending on your lift height and intended use, you may need to pair this kit with upgraded control arms or a diff drop kit to restore optimal CV angles and maintain drivetrain geometry.

Yes, this Dobinsons MRA Quick-Lift kit is specifically engineered to fit all Toyota Hilux N80 models from 2015 onwards, including pre-facelift (2015-2018) and post-facelift (2018-2024) variants across all cab configurations — Single Cab, Extra Cab, and Dual Cab. The kit is compatible with both 2WD and 4WD Hilux N80 models, though most buyers fit this to 4WD variants for off-road and towing applications. If you're unsure about your specific variant or have modified suspension components already fitted, use our online parts finder or contact our technical team for confirmation before ordering.
This kit delivers 2-3 inches (50-75mm) of front lift via the pre-assembled MRA struts and matched coil springs, combined with 1 inch (25mm) of rear lift from the extended greasable shackles. The total lift achievable depends on your vehicle's current accessory load and chosen spring rates — heavier constant loads will compress springs slightly more, while lighter setups may achieve the upper end of the lift range. The Quick-Lift 3-way adjustable system allows you to fine-tune ride height and damping characteristics across three settings, giving you additional control over stance and performance. This lift range is ideal for fitting 32-33 inch tyres without rubbing and significantly improves ground clearance for off-road touring.
This complete kit includes 2 x Dobinsons MRA front struts pre-assembled with Dobinsons coil springs, 2 x Dobinsons MRA rear shock absorbers, and 2 x extended greasable rear shackles with all necessary mounting hardware and bushings. Spring rates for both front and rear are customizable at checkout based on your constant accessory load. The kit does NOT include upper control arms, extended brake lines, diff drop kit, or wheel alignment — these items are sold separately and may be required depending on your lift height and intended use. All components are designed and manufactured to work together as a matched system for optimal performance and safety.
Absolutely — the Dobinsons MRA system is engineered specifically for heavy towing applications with 3-way adjustable damping that allows you to dial in maximum stiffness for towing stability and control. When correctly configured with appropriate rear spring rates for your constant load, this kit will handle the Hilux N80's full 3.5-tonne tow rating while maintaining safe handling, preventing excessive squat, and reducing trailer sway. For maximum towing performance and load-leveling capability, many customers pair this kit with supplementary airbag suspension which provides on-demand support without compromising unladen ride quality. The adjustable dampers allow you to run soft settings when unladen and firm settings when towing, giving you the best of both worlds.
While not absolutely mandatory for a 2-3 inch lift, upgraded aftermarket control arms are strongly recommended to restore optimal suspension geometry, correct camber and caster angles, and prevent premature wear on ball joints and CV boots. Factory control arms will still function with this lift height, but you may experience slightly compromised handling, reduced wheel travel, and increased stress on CV joints — particularly during off-road articulation. If you're planning serious off-road use, rock crawling, or want maximum suspension travel, investing in quality adjustable upper control arms will deliver significant improvements in handling, alignment settings, and long-term component durability. Our technical team can recommend compatible control arm options during your order.
Yes, a professional four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any lift kit, including this Dobinsons MRA system. Lifting your vehicle alters suspension geometry and changes camber, caster, and toe angles beyond factory specifications — driving without proper alignment will cause rapid and uneven tyre wear, compromised handling and braking performance, and potential safety issues. Your alignment technician should adjust all four wheels to manufacturer specifications (or upgraded specifications if using adjustable control arms) and provide you with a printout of before and after settings. Most professional 4WD suspension installers include alignment in their fitting service, so confirm this when booking your installation appointment.
Yes — in fact, selecting the correct spring rates for both front and rear based on your specific constant accessory load is critical for optimal performance and ride quality. When ordering this kit, you'll be prompted to select front spring rates (typically light, medium, or heavy) and rear spring rates independently based on permanent accessories like bull bars, winches, canopies, drawer systems, and auxiliary fuel tanks. Front load is usually dominated by bar and winch weight, while rear load includes canopy, drawers, dual batteries, and fixed storage. It's essential to select rates based only on constant load — occasional camping gear, passengers, or towing loads should NOT influence spring selection, as these are better managed through the adjustable damping or supplementary airbags.
Yes, this 2-3 inch lift will comfortably accommodate 32-33 inch tyres on the Hilux N80 without rubbing in most cases, though exact fitment depends on wheel offset, tyre width, and suspension articulation. A 265/70R17 (32 inch) or 285/70R17 (33 inch) is a popular choice for lifted N80 Hilux builds and provides excellent off-road traction and ground clearance. For 33-inch tyres or wider, you may need minor trimming of plastic inner guard liners during full compression or extreme articulation. If you're planning 34-inch tyres or larger, you'll likely need additional modifications including body mount chop, fender trimming, and potentially more lift via diff drop or alternative spring options. Always test fit and cycle suspension through full travel before heading off-road.
This Dobinsons MRA kit is covered by Dobinsons' comprehensive manufacturer warranty, which typically includes lifetime warranty on coil springs against sag and breakage, and multi-year warranty on shock absorbers against manufacturing defects and seal failure under normal use conditions. Exact warranty terms vary by component and are detailed in the documentation included with your kit — warranty coverage requires professional installation, appropriate vehicle loading within GVM limits, and regular maintenance including shock servicing at recommended intervals. Dobinsons has a strong reputation for honoring warranty claims and providing excellent customer support through their Australian distributor network. Keep your purchase receipt and installation records for warranty validation if required.
Absolutely — one of the key advantages of the Dobinsons MRA Quick-Lift system is its 3-way adjustable damping, which allows you to optimize ride quality for daily driving by selecting the softest setting for highway commuting and urban use. In soft mode, the MRA dampers deliver excellent comfort and compliance over suburban roads, speed bumps, and highway expansion joints while maintaining safe handling characteristics. When you need maximum performance for off-road touring, heavy loads, or towing, simply adjust the dampers to medium or firm settings for increased control and stability. Thousands of Hilux N80 owners run Dobinsons suspension daily with excellent long-term durability, comfort, and reliability across mixed-use applications from city commuting to weekend Outback adventures.
