Choose your rear coil spring rate based on the constant accessory load you carry, not just occasional trip weight. Bullbars, winches, long-range fuel tanks, rear drawer systems, dual batteries and roof-top tents all add constant load that a standard spring rate isn't designed for. If you're unsure which rate suits your setup, our team can work through your accessory list with you before you order.
This kit is best fitted by an experienced 4WD suspension workshop or a confident DIY installer with the correct spring compressors and torque specifications. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting to correct camber, caster and toe at the new ride height. Allow a 500km settling period before final alignment for the coil springs to seat properly. Consider pairing the kit with upgraded control arm upgrades to correct suspension geometry and CV angles at the 2" lift height.
Dobinsons has manufactured 4WD suspension in Australia for over 60 years, with shocks and springs tuned and tested on local roads rather than imported off a generic catalogue. Every Nitro Gas shock is backed by manufacturer warranty and supported by our in-house fitment team. View the full Dobinsons range to compare this kit against other Prado suspension options.
This kit suits Prado 120 owners running a bullbar, winch and drawer system, weekend tourers wanting corrugation control, and tradespeople using their Prado for daily work and occasional towing. If you're carrying heavier constant loads such as canopy setups or camper trailers, also look at our airbag suspension options to fine-tune rear load support.

Yes, this Dobinsons Nitro Gas kit is built for the Toyota Landcruiser Prado 120 Series from 2002 to 2009, covering the 3.0L turbo diesel, 4.0L V6 petrol and 2.7L petrol variants. It's matched to the factory IFS front end and coil-sprung rear axle used across the 120 Series range. If you're unsure of your exact model code (GRJ120, KDJ120 or TRJ120), our team can confirm fitment before you order.
This kit delivers a 2" front and 2" rear lift over standard Prado 120 ride height. The lift comes from vehicle-matched coil springs paired with Nitro Gas shocks valved for the increased ride height. This is enough to clear larger tyres and improve departure angle without pushing CV or driveline angles beyond safe limits.
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.
The kit includes 2 front and 2 rear Dobinsons Nitro Gas shock absorbers, matched front and rear coil springs for a 2" lift, bump stops and mounting hardware, plus fitting instructions. Upper and lower control arms are not included and are sold separately. See the full kit contents list on this page for exact quantities.
Yes, the rear coil springs are available in load-rated options to suit constant accessory weight, which improves rear-end stability when towing. The twin-tube nitro gas shocks maintain consistent damping under the extra load a tow ball weight adds. Talk to our team about your tow setup so we can confirm the right rear spring rate.
At a 2" lift, many Prado 120 owners upgrade the front control arms to restore correct CV joint and camber angles. It's not always mandatory but it's a common pairing that improves ball joint life and steering geometry at height. Our control arm range covers options matched to this lift height.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this kit. The 2" lift changes camber, caster and toe settings from factory specification. We recommend a 500km settling period before the final alignment so the new coil springs seat correctly.
Yes, the rear coil springs are available in different load ratings depending on your constant accessory weight, such as bullbars, drawers, dual batteries or long-range tanks. Choosing the correct rate keeps the rear ride height level and avoids sagging under load. Our team can help match a spring rate to your specific accessory list.
A 2" lift on the Prado 120 typically allows for a moderate increase in tyre diameter over standard, though exact clearance depends on wheel offset and width. We recommend checking your specific tyre and rim combination with our team before purchasing to avoid rubbing under full articulation. Flares or trimming may be needed for larger tyre and wheel combinations.
This Dobinsons Nitro Gas kit is covered by manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Warranty terms are confirmed at time of purchase and our team can provide the exact documentation for your order. Fast dispatch from our Australian warehouse means you're also covered by our local fitment support if questions come up during install.
Yes, the Nitro Gas shock valving is tuned to balance comfortable daily-driving characteristics with the load-carrying and off-road performance needed for touring. Many Prado 120 owners run this kit as their daily commuter and weekend tourer without changing shocks between uses. The twin-tube design also keeps ride quality consistent on rough urban roads, not just outback tracks.
