Upgrade your Toyota Land Cruiser 78 Series with premium suspension and lift kits engineered for Australia's toughest terrain.

All products are in stock at our Australian warehouse with fast dispatch nationwide, backed by expert fitment advice and technical support.
The 78 Series responds exceptionally well to suspension upgrades, with lift heights ranging from 2 to 3 inches available to suit different applications. Tough Dog offers both standard foam cell shock absorbers for value-conscious buyers and premium remote reservoir options for serious tourers and heavy payload work. When selecting coil springs and leaf springs, consider your typical accessory weight including bull bars, roof racks, water tanks, and camping gear to ensure optimal ride height and handling characteristics.
We specialise exclusively in 4WD suspension with expert knowledge of the Toyota Land Cruiser 78 Series platform. All Tough Dog components are held in Australian stock for immediate dispatch, and our technical team can guide you through lift height selection, load ratings, and compatibility with your specific build. Call us on 1300 120 020 for personalised fitment advice or to discuss which configuration suits your touring style, payload requirements, and budget.
For most 78 Series owners, a 2 to 3 inch lift provides the ideal balance between increased ground clearance, larger tyre fitment, and retained on-road manners. If you're running standard accessories and primarily touring on formed tracks, a 2 inch lift with medium-load springs works well. Heavy tourers with bull bars, dual batteries, winches, roof racks, and rear drawer systems should opt for 3 inch lift kits with heavy-duty or extra-heavy-duty spring rates to maintain correct ride height under load and prevent sagging.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is essential after installing any lift kit on your 78 Series Land Cruiser. Lifting the vehicle alters suspension geometry including caster, camber, and toe angles, which affects tyre wear and steering response. The adjustable panhard rod available for the 78 Series should also be fitted and adjusted during alignment to re-centre the front axle, ensuring even tyre wear and optimal steering feel both on and off-road.
Tough Dog has earned an excellent reputation among 78 Series owners for their engineered-to-suit approach and proven durability in Australian conditions. Their foam cell shock absorbers offer reliable performance at an accessible price point, while their remote reservoir kits deliver superior damping control and fade resistance for serious touring and heavy payloads. Tough Dog's comprehensive range for the 78 Series includes all necessary correction components like panhard rods and steering dampers, making them a complete solution backed by Australian warranty and support.
