This category features premium suspension and lift kits engineered specifically for the Nissan Patrol GQ and GU Coil Cab ute variants. Whether you're building a heavy-duty work truck or a capable tourer, you'll find complete lift kits from Bilstein, Dobinsons and Toughdog, plus individual shocks, coil springs and steering dampers to suit your load requirements. All products are Australian stock with fast Australia-wide dispatch from our warehouse.
The Patrol GQ and GU coil cab utes require suspension matched to their unique load distribution and rear coil setup. Lift heights range from 2 inches through to 4 inches depending on your tyre size and accessory weight. Shock technologies include Toughdog foam cell for comfort-focused setups, Dobinsons nitro gas for balanced performance, and Dobinsons MRA adjustable for fine-tuned height control. Consider your typical payload — heavy trays and toolboxes require higher-rated rear coils, while recreational builds can opt for medium-load springs paired with quality damping.
We carry Australian stock from the brands trusted by Patrol owners nationwide, with technical staff who understand the specific requirements of GQ and GU coil cab utes. Every order ships fast from our warehouse, and our team is available on 1300 120 020 for fitment advice, load rating guidance and help choosing between shock technologies. We support both DIY installers and workshop customers with the same expert service.
For 33-inch tyres and moderate accessory weight, a 2-inch (50mm) lift provides excellent clearance without affecting daily drivability. If you're running 35-inch tyres or need maximum ground clearance for serious off-road work, consider the 4-inch Dobinsons kit. The adjustable MRA systems offer flexibility to dial in height after installation based on your actual load. Always match your spring rates to your typical payload — ute trays and heavy cargo demand constant-load or heavy-duty rear coils.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is essential after installing any lift kit on your Patrol GQ or GU coil cab. Lifting the vehicle alters suspension geometry and camber angles, particularly at the front independent setup. Incorrect alignment will cause premature tyre wear and poor handling. Most workshops can accommodate lifted Patrols, but ensure they understand the specific requirements of coil-sprung models versus leaf-sprung wagons.
Bilstein offers premium damping technology with excellent longevity for both touring and daily driving. Dobinsons provides outstanding value with their nitro gas range, plus the unique MRA adjustable kits for height flexibility without compromising ride quality. Toughdog delivers proven Australian engineering with foam cell comfort options and robust adjustable shocks ideal for work utes. Your choice depends on budget, intended use and whether you prioritise comfort, adjustability or maximum durability under heavy loads.
