Choose your spring rate based on what you carry day to day, not just what you carry occasionally. A tradie running a steel canopy, toolboxes and a bullbar sits closer to the heavy duty or 580kg constant load end, while a weekend tourer with a lighter fibreglass canopy and drawer system may only need the medium duty option. Common accessories that add constant rear load include steel or aluminium canopies, dual battery and water tank setups, drawer systems, bullbars and rear-mounted spare wheel carriers.
This leaf spring kit is a bolt-in fitment for the Hilux N80 and suits an experienced DIY fitter with the right jacking and safety equipment, though we recommend a qualified suspension workshop for correct torque and shackle setup. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting to bring camber, caster and toe back within factory tolerance at the new ride height. Allow a 500km bed-in period for the leaves to settle before final alignment if you're chasing precise numbers. If you're lifting the rear, check your control arm options too, as some heavier lift combinations benefit from corrected geometry front and rear.
Dobinsons has built its rear leaf spring range around real Australian load conditions, offering six distinct rates rather than a single generic spring for every Hilux owner. Every spring in this range carries Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty and is tested for the corrugated roads, corrugations and payload demands typical of Australian touring and trade use. Tourers and tradespeople both run these springs because the load-specific approach means you can match the spring to the vehicle, not the other way around — view the full Dobinsons range.
This spring suits Hilux N80 owners who need a rear suspension upgrade to match a specific accessory load — tradespeople running canopies and toolboxes, tourers towing camper trailers, and caravan owners needing a higher constant load rating at the tow ball. If your load varies significantly trip to trip, also look at our airbag suspension options, which let you add air-assisted support on top of your chosen leaf spring rate.
All six configurations of this Dobinsons rear leaf spring are dispatched from Australian stock, and our team can help you match the right load rating to your Hilux setup before you buy. Browse our full lift kit range or get in touch if you need help choosing between the six options.

This Dobinsons rear leaf spring is designed for the Toyota Hilux N80 built from 2015 onward, covering 2.4L and 2.8L turbo diesel and 2.7L petrol variants in 4x4 and 4x2. It's a direct bolt-in replacement using the factory shackle and U-bolt mounting points. If you're on an earlier Hilux platform (pre-2015), this spring is not the correct fitment. Check our parts finder for the Hilux or contact us to confirm your build date and configuration.
Lift height depends on which of the six configurations you select, ranging from standard ride height up to a 2" lift. The comfort parabolic option sits closer to standard height, while the heavier load-rated multi-leaf packs sit higher once loaded or unladen depending on the rate chosen. Tell us your typical rear-end load and we can recommend the configuration that gives you the ride height and load capacity you need.
Each kit includes a pair of Dobinsons rear leaf spring assemblies in your chosen load configuration, along with centre bolts, spring pad hardware, U-bolts sized for the Hilux N80 rear axle, and bushes fitted to the spring eyes. Shackle plates and pins are included where the selected spring type requires them. Shock absorbers, control arms and airbag suspension are sold separately and can be added to complete the rear-end upgrade.
Yes, several of the six configurations are built specifically for towing and constant load use, topping out at a 580kg constant load rating in the heaviest multi-leaf option. If you're towing a camper trailer or caravan regularly, choose one of the heavier duty rates rather than the comfort parabolic spring. Our team can help match the spring rate to your tow ball download and typical trailer weight.
Rear leaf springs don't typically require a control arm change on the Hilux since the rear end uses leaf springs rather than control arm-located coils. However, if you're also lifting the front of your Hilux, upgraded control arms can help correct front geometry at the increased ride height. Speak to our team if you're combining this rear spring with a front lift kit.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting new rear leaf springs, as ride height changes affect rear axle position and overall vehicle geometry. We recommend an alignment check after the recommended 500km bed-in period once the leaves have settled. Skipping alignment can lead to uneven tyre wear and inconsistent handling. Book your alignment with a workshop experienced in lifted 4WDs where possible.
This listing covers the rear leaf spring only, available in six distinct load rates from comfort parabolic through to 580kg constant load. You can pair it with a separately selected front spring or lift kit component to match your Hilux's overall accessory load front and rear. Browse our coil spring range for compatible front options, or contact us for a full front-and-rear recommendation.
A rear lift up to 2" from the higher-rate configurations typically provides extra clearance for a modest tyre size increase, but actual clearance depends on your front lift, wheel offset and tyre width. We recommend checking your intended tyre size against your specific Hilux setup before ordering. Our fitment support team can advise on realistic tyre sizing once we know your full suspension configuration.
This Dobinsons rear leaf spring is covered by Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty against manufacturing defects. Warranty terms and claims are handled through 4WD Suspension as your Australian supplier, with our team assisting on any warranty query. Keep your proof of purchase and fitment date for warranty reference. Contact us directly if you have any concerns after installation.
Yes, particularly the comfort-focused parabolic configuration, which is designed for a smoother unladen ride suited to daily commuting and light-duty use. The heavier load-rated options are better suited to vehicles carrying constant weight, such as canopies or camper trailers, and may ride firmer unladen. Choose the rate that matches your typical daily load rather than the heaviest option if comfort is your priority.
Great Upgrade for the Hilux
The rear feels much more stable under load and the ride is still comfortable. Very happy with the upgrade.(5)
