When ordering, you must select the appropriate front and rear spring rates based on your constant accessory load only — this means permanent accessories fitted to your Jimny, not occasional loads like camping gear or passengers. Common accessories that affect spring selection include bull bars, winches, steel or alloy trays, roof racks, roof-top tents, long-range fuel tanks, dual battery systems, and aftermarket steel wheels. Occasional loads such as camping equipment, recovery gear, passengers, or towing a small trailer should not be factored into your spring rate selection as this will result in overly stiff springs and a harsh ride quality when unloaded. If you're unsure about which spring rate to choose, contact our team with a list of your fitted accessories for expert guidance.
Professional installation by a qualified mechanic or experienced 4WD workshop is strongly recommended for this lift kit. While mechanically competent DIY enthusiasts with appropriate tools can perform the installation, proper spring compressor equipment, torque wrenches and safety procedures are essential. A full four-wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to ensure correct steering geometry, even tyre wear and optimal handling characteristics. Following installation, observe a 500km break-in period during which springs will settle and shocks will bed in — avoid harsh off-road driving during this period. Depending on your lift height and intended use, you may benefit from pairing this kit with upgraded control arms or extended brake lines to maintain proper suspension geometry and brake system function.

This Dobinsons Nitro Gas lift kit is perfect for Suzuki Jimny owners who want to transform their compact 4WD into a more capable tourer without sacrificing daily driving comfort. It's ideal for grey nomads downsizing to a smaller touring vehicle, tradespeople who use their Jimny for site access and light work duties, adventurous couples heading off-grid with camping gear and recovery equipment, or families who want a fun weekend 4WD that's still practical for school runs and shopping centre car parks. If you regularly carry heavy loads in your Jimny such as rooftop tents, full camping setups, or trade equipment, consider pairing this lift kit with airbag suspension for on-demand load support and the ability to fine-tune ride height based on payload.

This kit is specifically engineered for the current generation Suzuki Jimny (JB74) manufactured from 2019 onwards with the 1.5L K15B petrol engine. It fits both manual and automatic transmission variants and is a direct bolt-in replacement requiring no chassis modifications. If you have an earlier generation Jimny (JB23, JB43 or earlier models), this kit will not fit and you'll need a different part number. You can verify your exact model year and check compatible parts using our Suzuki Jimny parts finder or contact our team with your VIN number for confirmation.
This Dobinsons Nitro Gas kit provides a moderate suspension lift designed to improve ground clearance while maintaining the Jimny's low centre of gravity and stable handling characteristics. The actual lift height varies depending on your spring rate selection and constant accessory load, typically ranging from 25-40mm over standard ride height. The lift is conservative by design — focusing on improved suspension articulation, load capacity and ride quality rather than maximum height. This approach ensures the Jimny remains safe and stable for daily driving, highway touring and technical off-road work without requiring costly modifications to driveline angles, brake lines or steering components.
This complete kit includes everything needed to upgrade your front and rear suspension: 2 x Dobinsons Nitro Gas front shock absorbers, 2 x front coil springs, 2 x Dobinsons Nitro Gas rear shock absorbers, and 2 x rear coil springs. All shocks feature twin-tube nitrogen gas technology, double chrome hardened rods, Japanese NOK seals, German Fuchs oil, natural rubber bushings and steel dust covers. The coil springs are vehicle-specific and load-rated to match your accessory configuration. All necessary mounting hardware and bushings are included, along with installation instructions and spring rate selection guidance.
While this kit significantly improves load handling and suspension control compared to factory components, the Suzuki Jimny has a relatively low towing capacity (typically 1300kg braked) regardless of suspension upgrades. The Dobinsons Nitro Gas shocks and uprated coil springs will provide better control and reduced rear squat when towing light trailers, camper trailers or small boats within your vehicle's rated capacity. However, if you regularly tow at or near maximum capacity, we recommend adding airbag suspension to the rear for on-demand load support and the ability to level your vehicle when hitched up. Never exceed your vehicle's manufacturer-specified towing capacity regardless of suspension modifications.
For the modest lift height provided by this Dobinsons kit, upgraded control arms are not mandatory but can be beneficial depending on your usage. The factory control arms will continue to function correctly with this lift, maintaining acceptable suspension geometry and ball joint angles. However, if you're planning to fit larger tyres (32-33 inches), frequently drive aggressive off-road terrain requiring maximum articulation, or want to optimise castor angle for improved highway stability and steering feel, aftermarket extended or adjustable control arms are a worthwhile investment. Our suspension specialists can assess your specific build and recommend whether control arm upgrades would benefit your particular application — contact us for personalised advice.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any lift kit or suspension modification. Changing your suspension ride height alters critical steering geometry including castor, camber and toe settings, which directly affect handling, steering feel, tyre wear patterns and vehicle safety. A professional alignment ensures your Jimny tracks straight, steers predictably, and wears tyres evenly across the tread. The alignment should be performed after installation is complete and you've driven approximately 50-100km to allow components to settle. Keep your alignment printout and recheck alignment if you notice uneven tyre wear, pulling to one side, or steering wheel off-centre during straight-ahead driving.
Yes, and you absolutely should select spring rates based on your individual accessory load at each axle. The front and rear spring rates should be chosen independently based on the constant weight fitted to each end of your vehicle. For example, if you have a bull bar and winch up front but minimal rear accessories, you'd select a heavier front spring rate and lighter rear rate. Common front accessories include bull bars, winches, steel bumpers and upgraded radiators, while rear accessories include drawer systems, long-range tanks, dual batteries, and roof-top tents. Only consider permanent accessories, not occasional loads like passengers or camping gear. Our team can help you calculate your accessory weights and recommend appropriate spring rates for balanced performance.
With this moderate lift kit installed, most Suzuki Jimny owners can comfortably fit tyres in the 215/75R15 to 225/75R15 range (approximately 28-29 inches diameter) without rubbing under full suspension compression or steering lock. Some fitment of 30-inch tyres may be possible with minor trimming of plastic guard liners and careful wheel offset selection. The compact Jimny has limited guard clearance even when lifted, so tyre sizing must be approached conservatively to avoid rubbing on suspension components, chassis rails or guard liners during articulation. We strongly recommend test-fitting before purchasing tyres, cycling the suspension through full compression and rebound at full steering lock. Remember that larger, heavier tyres will affect gearing, fuel economy, speedometer accuracy and braking performance.
Dobinsons Spring & Suspension stands behind their products with comprehensive warranty coverage on both shocks and springs. The Nitro Gas shock absorbers are covered by Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship, while coil springs carry warranty protection against sagging and breakage. Warranty coverage requires proof of purchase, professional installation by a qualified mechanic, and vehicle use within normal operating parameters. The warranty does not cover damage from accidents, improper installation, modifications to components, or use in competitive motorsport. Retain your purchase receipt and installation records as these will be required for any warranty claims. Full warranty terms and conditions are available from Dobinsons or through our customer service team.
Absolutely — this Dobinsons Nitro Gas kit is specifically engineered to balance off-road capability with excellent on-road comfort, making it ideal for Jimny owners who daily drive their vehicle but also enjoy weekend adventures. The twin-tube shock technology with vehicle-specific valving provides a firmer, more controlled ride than factory suspension without being harsh or uncomfortable. Passengers will notice improved comfort over corrugations, better body control through corners, and reduced bouncing on highway undulations. The ride quality is noticeably superior to budget suspension options that feel jarring on bitumen. During long highway trips, the improved damping reduces driver fatigue and maintains composure when overtaking or in crosswinds. This is not a rock-crawling competition setup — it's a well-balanced touring suspension that works beautifully for the 80/20 driver who prioritises comfort and capability.
Perfect for Our Family Bush Camping Adventures
Had this Dobinsons lift kit fitted to our 2020 Jimny about three months ago and it's completely transformed the way it handles our monthly trips down to the South Coast and out through the High Country. The ride quality is noticeably smoother over corrugations compared to the stock setup, and the extra clearance gives us confidence on rutted tracks. Really impressed with how well-sorted the kit feels – you can tell it's been properly engineered for our conditions rather than just a generic import.(5)
