This complete Tough Dog suspension kit for the Suzuki Jimny XL 5 door (2023 - On) lifts the vehicle approximately 40mm front and rear. Raised coils at both ends with a matched shock package suit the solid-axle layout, and the geometry hardware in the kit keeps the steering and axle location correct at the new height. Every part in the kit is a Tough Dog component selected for this vehicle, and the dropdowns let you set the shock type and spring rates to suit how the vehicle is used.

Shocks are Tough Dog Foam Cell shocks front and rear, matched to the springs in the kit. Choose front springs in Comfort/Medium / Constant Load - Suit Bar/Winch to match the gear your vehicle carries permanently.
| Option | Choices |
|---|---|
| Front Spring Rate | Comfort/Medium / Constant Load - Suit Bar/Winch (+ $110.00) |
| Steering Damper | Not Required / Yes - Heavy Duty (+ $160.00) / Yes - Return To Centre (+ $195.00) / Yes - SV Adjustable (+ $230.00) |
Rate the springs to the weight the vehicle carries all the time: a steel bull bar, winch, canopy, drawers, long-range tank or service body. Camping gear, a trailer or an occasional load do not count. Going too heavy on the springs gives a harsh unladen ride and less wheel travel, so if the vehicle is between ratings, pick the lighter one and talk to us if you are unsure.
Bolt-in fitment with no cutting or welding. The castor correction parts are fitted with the front springs and set during the wheel alignment. A wheel alignment is required after fitting. A lift of this size is within the limits most states allow without engineering, but check your local rules.

Suits the five-door Suzuki Jimny XL (2023 onwards). The three-door JB74 uses a different kit. Enter your rego or select your vehicle in the parts finder on this page and we confirm the fitment before the kit ships.
The kit for the Suzuki Jimny XL 5 door (2023 - On) contains 2 x Front shock absorbers, 2 x Front coil springs, 2 x Rear coil springs, 2 x Rear shock absorbers, 1 x Front castor correction kit, 1 x Rear left brake hose kit, 1 x ABS relocation kit, 1 x Crossmember kit, 1 x Rear bump stop spacers. Everything is a Tough Dog part selected for this vehicle, so there is nothing else to buy for a standard 40mm lift. Optional upgrades (shock type, spring rates, steering damper) are chosen from the dropdowns above.
Approximately 40mm front and rear on the Suzuki Jimny XL 5 door with the standard spring rates. Heavier spring rates sit a little higher unladen and settle under a bull bar, canopy or constant load; the final height also varies with tyre size and the condition of the vehicle, and settles after the first few hundred kilometres.
The complete 40mm kit for the Suzuki Jimny XL 5 door is $1,837 with the standard options; heavier spring rates add the amounts shown in the dropdowns. That price covers every part listed above, so there is nothing else to buy for a standard lift, and we ship Australia-wide.
A 40mm suspension lift is within the limit most Australian states allow on a Suzuki Jimny XL 5 door without engineering approval. Some states count a tyre size increase toward the total lift, so if you are also going up a tyre size check your state's light vehicle modification rules. Keep the lift to this kit's rating and have the wheel alignment done and it stays a road-legal, insurable modification.
Choose front springs in Comfort/Medium / Constant Load - Suit Bar/Winch to match what the Jimny carries permanently: a steel bull bar and winch on the front, a canopy, drawers, tray or long-range tank on the rear. Only count gear that stays on the vehicle; camping loads and a trailer do not. Towing a caravan or heavy trailer regularly justifies the next rear rate up. If you are between ratings, take the lighter one for a better unladen ride, or call us with your setup.
The kit comes with Tough Dog Foam Cell shocks front and rear, valved for the raised springs. A new steering damper is optional: heavy duty is a straight replacement, return-to-centre adds self-centring with bigger tyres, and the adjustable type lets you tune the resistance. Castor correction is included because raising a solid front axle reduces castor; the parts are set during the wheel alignment.
A workshop takes around 4 to 5 hours to fit this kit to a Suzuki Jimny XL 5 door, plus the wheel alignment. It is a bolt-in job with no cutting or welding, so a competent home mechanic with a hoist or solid stands, a torque wrench and basic hand tools can do it. Follow the torque settings in the Tough Dog fitting instructions and book the alignment straight after, or have your local 4WD suspension workshop fit it.
Fitting aftermarket suspension does not void a new-vehicle warranty on its own: under Australian Consumer Law the manufacturer must show that the part caused a specific fault before refusing a claim on that item, and the rest of the warranty is unaffected. Keep the lift within the legal limit for your state, have it fitted and aligned properly, and tell your insurer about the modification so the kit is covered. Tough Dog components are backed by the manufacturer's Australian warranty; ask us for the current terms.
. The springs settle to their final height over the first few hundred kilometres.
