When pairing these MRA shocks with upgraded springs, spring rate selection depends on your constant accessory load (GVM/GCM upgrades, permanent accessories). Front accessories include bull bars, winches, long-range fuel tanks, heavy-duty batteries, and steel replacement bumpers. Rear accessories include steel trays, canopies, drawer systems, dual spare wheel carriers, roof racks, rear bars, and water tanks. Calculate your total constant weight and consult our technical team to match the correct spring rate for optimal ride height and comfort.
Professional installation by a qualified 4WD suspension specialist is strongly recommended to ensure correct fitment, torque specifications, and remote reservoir mounting. After installation, wheel alignment is mandatory to prevent uneven tyre wear and maintain vehicle handling characteristics. All Dobinsons suspension requires a 500km break-in period with gradual damping adjustment — start at mid-settings and fine-tune based on load, terrain, and personal preference. For maximum performance and geometry correction on lifted N70 Hilux models, consider pairing these shocks with upgraded control arms to restore caster angle and maintain proper ball joint angles.
Dobinsons has been engineering Australian suspension solutions since 1953, with over 70 years of proven performance in the harshest conditions on Earth. Every Dobinsons product is tested in real-world Australian outback environments — from bulldust to beach sand, from corrugated desert tracks to Cape York's rocky creek crossings. Backed by comprehensive warranty coverage and trusted by professional touring companies, tradespeople, and serious 4WD enthusiasts across Australia and globally. Explore the full Dobinsons suspension range for complete vehicle-specific solutions.
This MRA shock kit is ideal for Toyota Hilux N70 owners who demand the ultimate in suspension adjustability and performance — serious tourers covering thousands of kilometres annually, tradespeople carrying constant heavy loads, caravan and camper trailer towers requiring maximum stability, and recreational off-roaders seeking professional-grade damping control. If you regularly carry heavy rear loads or tow frequently, consider complementing these shocks with airbag suspension for on-demand load support and level ride height adjustment.

Yes, this Dobinsons MRA Adjustable shock kit is specifically engineered for all Toyota Hilux N70 series models manufactured between 2005 and 2015, covering all cab configurations including Single Cab, Extra Cab, and Dual Cab variants. The kit fits SR, SR5, and Workmate models with both petrol and diesel engines. If you've fitted aftermarket modifications like longer leaf springs or different spring hangers, please contact our technical team to confirm compatibility. You can also check our comprehensive parts database for your specific N70 variant to ensure correct fitment.
This MRA shock kit provides 0-75mm of adjustable lift height at the rear of your Toyota Hilux N70, allowing you to fine-tune ride height based on load, accessories, and terrain requirements. The adjustable design means you can run lower for unladen daily driving and wind up the adjustment when carrying heavy loads or towing. Note that this is a rear shock kit only — it does not include front suspension components or springs. For complete vehicle lift, you'll need to add front shocks, coil or torsion bar components depending on your N70's front suspension type, and appropriate spring upgrades.
This kit includes 2 x Dobinsons MRA Monotube Remote Reservoir Rear Shock Absorbers with adjustable 0-75mm lift height capability. Each shock features 20-stage low-speed compression damping, 10-stage high-speed compression damping, and 15-stage rebound damping adjustment. The shocks come with remote reservoir canisters, braided stainless steel hoses, and all necessary mounting hardware for the reservoir bodies. This is a rear shock kit only — it does not include front suspension components, leaf springs, U-bolts, shackles, or upper control arms, which are available separately for complete suspension upgrades.
Absolutely — the Dobinsons MRA shocks are specifically engineered for heavy towing applications including caravans, camper trailers, and work trailers. The 10-stage high-speed compression damping prevents bottoming out under heavy tongue weight, while the 20-stage low-speed adjustment controls body roll and sway during cornering and crosswinds. The remote reservoir design maintains consistent damping performance even during extended highway towing when shock temperatures rise. For optimal towing performance, pair these shocks with appropriately rated heavy-duty leaf springs and consider adding airbag suspension for on-demand load leveling and additional support.
While not strictly mandatory for a 0-75mm rear lift, upgraded control arms are highly recommended for N70 Hilux models running 50mm or more of total lift to maintain correct suspension geometry and ball joint angles. The adjustable nature of these MRA shocks means you can start without control arms at lower lift settings and add them later if needed. Upgraded control arms restore factory caster and camber angles, reduce steering wander, prevent premature ball joint and CV wear, and improve high-speed stability. Our suspension specialists can assess your specific setup and recommend whether control arms are necessary for your intended use and lift height.
Yes, professional four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any suspension lift or shock absorber kit on your Toyota Hilux N70. Even though these are rear shocks, changing ride height affects the entire vehicle's geometry including front wheel alignment specifications. Proper alignment ensures even tyre wear, optimal handling characteristics, and safe vehicle dynamics on and off-road. Most reputable suspension installers include alignment in their fitting service. Alignment should be performed after installation and again after the 500km break-in period once the suspension has fully settled.
This kit includes adjustable shock absorbers only — springs are purchased separately, allowing you to select the exact spring rate matched to your specific constant load requirements. Dobinsons offers multiple leaf spring options for the N70 Hilux ranging from light-duty (stock replacement) to extra-heavy-duty for permanent heavy loads. Spring selection should be based on your total constant accessory weight including trays, canopies, toolboxes, dual batteries, water tanks, and drawer systems. Our technical team can calculate your exact load requirements and recommend the ideal spring rate to pair with these MRA shocks for optimal ride height and comfort.
The 0-75mm adjustable lift from these rear shocks, when combined with appropriate front lift components, can accommodate moderately larger tyres on the N70 Hilux — typically up to 32-33 inches depending on wheel offset and guard trimming. However, actual tyre clearance depends on your complete lift setup including front suspension lift, wheel offset, and whether you've fitted wider body flares or performed guard modifications. For maximum tyre clearance and proper suspension geometry, a complete matched lift kit with front and rear components is recommended. Contact our fitment specialists with your desired tyre size for specific clearance advice for your N70 configuration.
Dobinsons MRA shock absorbers are covered by Dobinsons' comprehensive manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship when purchased from authorized dealers like 4WD Suspension Australia. Warranty coverage varies by component and usage type — contact us for specific warranty terms and conditions. Beyond warranty coverage, every MRA shock is fully rebuildable for life, meaning you can service, reseal, and rebuild these shocks indefinitely with genuine Dobinsons components. This rebuildable design protects your investment and provides decades of reliable performance with proper maintenance and periodic servicing.
Yes, the Dobinsons MRA shock kit is engineered to deliver excellent daily driving comfort on sealed roads while maintaining superior off-road capability when needed. The 20-stage low-speed compression damping can be adjusted to provide compliant, car-like ride quality for highway commuting and urban driving. Start with softer low-speed settings for daily use, then firm up high-speed compression when heading off-road or carrying heavy loads. The monotube design with remote reservoirs prevents fade during extended highway driving and maintains consistent damping performance across all conditions. This versatility makes MRA shocks ideal for dual-purpose vehicles that see both daily driving and weekend touring.
Perfect Lift for Our Loaded Hilux
Fitted the Dobinsons adjustable rear spacers to our 2010 Hilux before our last trip down to Wilsons Prom and they've made a massive difference with the camper trailer and all our camping gear loaded up. The adjustability is brilliant - started at 50mm and fine-tuned it to sit perfectly level when fully loaded. Ride quality is still comfortable for the daily commute too, which was a pleasant surprise given how much better it handles the weight now.(5)
Perfect Lift for My Heavily Loaded Hilux
Fitted the Dobinsons MRA adjustable spacers to my N70 before a three-week Cape York trip and they handled the constant corrugations brilliantly. Running them at about 50mm to level out the rear with my drawer system, dual batteries, and long range tank. The adjustability is genuinely useful – I've tweaked the height twice now depending on gear load, and the quality of the machining means they're not going anywhere even on the rough stuff.(5)
Perfect Lift for Our Loaded Hilux
Fitted the Dobinsons MRA adjustable kit to our 2012 Hilux before our Cape York trip and couldn't be happier with the results. The adjustability meant we could dial in the perfect height for our rooftop tent and drawer system without compromising ride quality on the corrugations. Installation was straightforward and the build quality is seriously impressive - you can tell these are made to handle proper Aussie conditions.(5)
Perfect lift for my work Hilux
Been running these Dobinsons adjustable struts on my N70 for about six months now, loaded up with tools and gear every day. Ride quality is spot on - no more sagging in the rear and handles the rough tracks to site way better than the factory setup. Dead easy to adjust the height too when I need to level it out with different loads.(5)
Perfect Lift for Our Loaded Hilux
Fitted the Dobinsons adjustable rear lift to our 2012 Hilux before our last trip to the High Country and the difference was incredible. We carry a lot of camping gear with the kids and the rear used to sag badly, but now it sits level even fully loaded. Ride quality is actually better than stock, and the adjustability means I can dial it in perfectly depending on the load. Well worth the investment for anyone doing regular touring.(5)
