The Dobinsons MRA Adjustable Rear Shocks suit the Toyota Hilux N80 2015-ON and give you 0-3" of selectable rear lift via 3-way external damping adjustment, letting you fine-tune compression and rebound without pulling the shock apart. Remote reservoir monotube construction separates oil and nitrogen gas to keep damping consistent under sustained towing or corrugated-road use. Pair these premium shock absorbers with the right rear leaf springs for your accessory load. In stock in Australia, backed by Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty and fitment support from our team.

These MRA shocks are damping units, not springs, so the correct rear spring rate depends on what you carry day to day. Constant loads such as a steel tray, canopy, dual battery tray, water tank or caravan tow ball weight all push spring selection towards a higher-rated leaf pack. Talk to our team about matching your leaf springs rating to these shocks so the damping and spring work together under load.
Fitment is a bolt-in rear shock swap best handled by an experienced DIY installer or your usual suspension workshop, given the remote reservoir hoses and mounting brackets need correct routing. A wheel alignment is recommended any time ride height changes, and we suggest a 500km settling period before locking in your final damping adjustment. If you're also lifting the front, consider pairing this with upgraded control arms to correct front-end geometry at the new ride height.
Dobinsons has been developing 4WD suspension in Australia for decades, valving shocks specifically for local conditions rather than adapting an overseas tune. Every MRA shock is backed by a manufacturer warranty and is fully rebuildable, which matters for anyone covering serious touring kilometres. Tradespeople and remote travellers running Hilux N80 utes rely on the Dobinsons suspension range for repeatable, adjustable performance rather than a fixed factory-style shock.
This kit suits Hilux N80 owners who need adjustable rear damping for varying loads — tradies running a canopy and tools, tourers with drawers and camping gear, and caravan or trailer tow rigs. If your rear load is more constant and heavy, such as a permanent slide-on camper, it's worth also comparing airbag suspension to support the extra weight alongside these shocks.
These Dobinsons MRA rear shocks are dispatched from local Australian stock with fitment support from our team. Browse our full lift kit range to build a complete front and rear setup for your Hilux N80.

Yes, these Dobinsons MRA Adjustable Rear Shocks are built specifically for the Toyota Hilux N80 built from 2015 onward, covering 2.4L and 2.8L diesel and 2.7L and 4.0L petrol variants. They bolt into the factory rear shock mounting points. If you're running a canopy, tray back or other rear-end modification, check with our team first via our parts finder for this Hilux N80 to confirm no clearance issues.
These shocks give 0-3" of adjustable rear lift, meaning you can dial the ride height within that range to suit your spring setup and load. The lift height achieved also depends on the rear leaf springs fitted alongside these shocks. For a specific target height, tell our team your accessory load and we'll confirm the right spring and shock combination.
You get two Dobinsons MRA Adjustable Rear Shock Absorbers complete with remote reservoirs, mounting brackets, hoses, bushes and mounting hardware, plus the 3-way external damping adjuster knobs. Front shocks, coil springs, leaf springs and control arms are not included and are sold separately. Fitting instructions are supplied with the kit.
Yes, the remote reservoir design is intended for sustained load conditions like towing, where extra oil and nitrogen gas volume helps resist heat fade compared to a standard twin-tube shock. The 3-way damping adjustment lets you firm up rebound and compression control when you're hitched up. Match these shocks with an appropriate rear leaf spring rate for your tow ball weight for the best result.
This is a rear shock kit, so it doesn't directly affect front control arm geometry. If you're also fitting a front lift on your N80, upgraded control arms help correct caster and CV angles at increased ride height. For a rear-only fitment at 0-3" lift, standard rear geometry is generally unaffected.
Yes, we recommend a wheel alignment any time rear ride height changes, even within the 0-3" adjustment range these shocks offer. This keeps tyre wear even and steering tracking straight. Book the alignment after your chosen damping and ride height setting has settled in, ideally after the initial 500km.
These shocks are sold as a damping unit, so spring rate is selected separately through our leaf springs range for the Hilux N80. Spring rate should match your typical rear load, whether that's a light canopy or a heavier tray and water tank setup. Our team can help match a leaf spring rating to these MRA shocks for your specific accessory load.
A 0-3" rear lift from this kit can improve clearance for larger tyres, but final tyre size also depends on your front lift height, wheel offset and any body modifications. We recommend confirming your full tyre and wheel package against your chosen lift height before ordering. Our fitment team can advise based on your complete N80 setup.
These Dobinsons MRA shocks are covered by Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. They are also fully rebuildable, so seals and internals can be serviced rather than requiring replacement down the track. Keep your proof of purchase from 4WD Suspension for any warranty claim.
Yes, the 3-way external adjustment lets you back off damping for a more compliant, comfortable ride when the vehicle is unladen for daily driving, then firm it up when loaded or towing. Many Hilux N80 owners run these shocks year-round, adjusting settings as their load changes between work and touring use. It's a genuine dual-purpose setup rather than a load-only or comfort-only shock.
