The Dobinsons Nitro Gas 4" Lift Kit suits Toyota LandCruiser 80 Series (1990-1997) and 105 Series (1998-2007), pairing nitrogen-charged shock absorbers with raised coil springs for a genuine 4" lift front and rear. Nitro gas damping resists oil aeration on corrugated tracks, while the raised coil springs carry constant loads from bullbars, winches and drawer systems without sagging. This is a complete 4WD lift kit, not a mix of parts scavenged from your old setup. In stock in Australia with manufacturer warranty and fitment support from our team.

Lift height compliance: Suspension lifts of this size may exceed your state's allowable limit without engineering certification. Check your state's light vehicle modification rules (VSB14/NCOP) before fitting.
Choose your spring rate based on what's permanently bolted to the vehicle, not just what you carry occasionally. A bullbar, winch and dual battery tray up front, or a long-range fuel tank, drawer system and fridge in the rear, all add constant load that a standard-rate spring wasn't designed to carry at the correct height. Talk to our team about your accessory list before ordering so the front and rear rate matches your actual build, not just the base vehicle weight.
This kit is best fitted by an experienced 4WD suspension installer or a confident DIY mechanic with a hoist and spring compressors, given the coil preload and shock torque specs involved. A wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting — ride height changes camber and caster, and skipping this step accelerates tyre wear. Allow a 500km settling period for springs to seat before final alignment if you're chasing exact ride height. These vehicles use a solid front axle on coil springs, located by radius arms and a panhard rod rather than IFS control arms, so geometry correction at lift height comes from caster-correction radius arm bushes or adjustable radius arms plus an adjustable panhard rod.
Dobinsons has been engineering 4WD suspension in Australia for decades, with this Nitro Gas kit built specifically around the 80/105 Series coil-sprung chassis rather than adapted from a generic design. Every kit carries a manufacturer warranty and is tested against Australian conditions before it reaches dealers. You can view the full Dobinsons range to see how this kit fits alongside their broader shock and spring lineup.
This kit suits LandCruiser owners running remote touring setups, camper trailer tow rigs, and tradespeople carrying tools and equipment daily who need the extra height and load capacity. If you're regularly at or near GVM with a caravan or camper, it's worth also looking at airbag suspension to manage variable load without over-stiffening the ride when unladen.

Yes, this Dobinsons Nitro Gas kit is built specifically for the coil-sprung 80 Series (1990-1997) and 105 Series (1998-2007) LandCruiser. It's designed around the factory front and rear coil suspension on both models, including diesel and petrol variants. If you're unsure which series or build date you have, our team can confirm fitment from your VIN or compliance plate before you order.
This kit provides a 4" lift front and rear once the vehicle settles on its new springs. That's achieved through the raised coil springs combined with matched-length Dobinsons Nitro Gas shock absorbers. Final ride height can vary slightly depending on accessory load, so it's worth discussing your bullbar, winch and drawer setup with us beforehand.
Please note that all assembled struts are dispatched at a height based on our experience and the manufacturer’s specifications for the advertised lift. Coil springs and leaf springs are also manufactured according to the advertised height and constant-load rating. Actual vehicle height may vary depending on the vehicle and the weight of fitted accessories. Further adjustment may therefore be required after installation. The installer may use coil spacers or adjust the struts at their discretion to achieve the desired height. We are not responsible for vehicle-specific height variations or any additional adjustments required after installation.
This vehicle runs a solid front axle on coil springs, located by radius arms and a panhard rod, so there are no upper or lower control arms to upgrade like an IFS vehicle. At around 2" of lift most vehicles run the kit as supplied; taller lifts benefit from caster correction (offset radius arm bushes or adjustable radius arms) to restore steering self-centring, plus an adjustable panhard rod to re-centre the axle. Our team can advise what your lift height and build need.
Yes, the raised coil springs in this kit are rated to carry constant accessory loads, which also benefits towing stability by keeping the rear from sagging under tow ball weight. For heavier caravans or camper trailers, pairing this kit with airbag suspension gives you adjustable load support on top of the fixed spring rate. Talk to our team about your van's tow ball mass so we can confirm the right spring rate.

Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting this kit. The 4" lift changes camber and caster from factory settings, and skipping alignment leads to uneven tyre wear and can affect steering feel. We recommend allowing the springs to settle for roughly 500km before your final alignment appointment.
Dobinsons offers this kit with spring rates matched to typical accessory loads on the 80/105 platform. If you're running heavier gear than standard — long-range tanks, dual batteries, drawer systems — let our team know your full accessory list so we can confirm the correct spring rate is included or recommend an alternative before dispatch.
A 4" lift typically opens up clearance for a larger tyre than standard, but exact sizing depends on your rim offset, wheel width and whether you're running flares. We recommend confirming your intended tyre size with our team before ordering so we can flag any rubbing points specific to the 80/105 Series guards and chassis rails.
This kit is covered by Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Warranty terms apply to correctly installed and aligned kits used within the load ratings the springs and shocks are designed for. Keep your proof of purchase and installation records, and contact our team directly if you have a warranty query.
Yes, this kit is engineered to keep on-road manners civilised while adding off-road clearance, since the spring rates are matched to the raised ride height rather than just stiffened generically. Many 80/105 Series owners run this kit as their daily driver and tow vehicle, not just for weekend touring. If your vehicle carries a heavier daily load such as tools or equipment, mention this so we can confirm the spring rate suits that use.
