Upgrade your Toyota Hilux with premium suspension kits, lift kits, shocks, and springs engineered for Australian conditions. Whether you're running an N70 (2005-2015) or N80 (2015-on) Hilux, we stock a comprehensive range of Dobinsons and Bilstein suspension components designed to improve ride quality, increase ground clearance, and handle heavier loads. All products are Australian stock with fast dispatch Australia-wide.
The Toyota Hilux is available with lift heights ranging from 2 inches through to 4 inches, depending on your intended use and accessories. Popular options include Dobinsons Nitro Gas kits for excellent value and all-terrain performance, Bilstein B6 upgrades for premium on-road comfort, and Dobinsons Monotube MRA adjustable systems offering 3-way damping control for ultimate versatility. When selecting springs, consider your typical loads — Dobinsons coil and leaf springs are available in multiple weight ratings to suit bullbars, canopies, roof racks, and touring gear without compromising ride quality.

For most Hilux owners running standard accessories like a bullbar and canopy, a 2-3 inch lift provides the ideal balance of improved clearance, maintained ride quality, and minimal driveline modifications. If you're running larger tyres (33 inches or above) or need maximum clearance for serious off-road work, a 4 inch lift kit is available for both N70 and N80 models. Consider that lifts beyond 2 inches may require additional components like extended brake lines, and always match your spring rates to your typical payload to avoid sagging or harsh ride quality.
Yes, a professional wheel alignment is essential after installing any lift kit on your Hilux. Lifting the vehicle changes suspension geometry and camber angles, which affects tyre wear and handling characteristics. Most installers will include alignment in their fitment quote, but factor this into your budget if performing a DIY installation. The N80 Hilux with its coil-sprung front end is particularly sensitive to alignment settings after suspension modifications.
Both Dobinsons and Bilstein are proven performers on the Hilux platform with distinct advantages. Dobinsons offers exceptional value with their Nitro Gas range and superior adjustability with Monotube MRA systems, plus they manufacture springs in multiple load ratings to perfectly match your setup. Bilstein is the premium choice if you prioritise on-road refinement and towing stability, with their B6 shocks renowned for fade-free performance and longevity. Your choice ultimately depends on your budget, typical terrain, and whether you value on-road comfort or maximum off-road adjustability.
