Tough Dog front struts for the Toyota Fortuner (both 2004-12/2015 and GUN156 2015-on), sold per pair as strut only - no coil, no strut top. Suits standard height up to 40mm lifted. Pick Foam Cell (FC404600) or 40mm Adjustable (BM404600).
These are bare strut cartridges for the Toyota Fortuner & Hilux N70/N80 – the damper only, for vehicles where the existing coils and strut tops are staying. If your coils are original or sagging, look at the assembled option instead so the whole corner goes back together fresh.
The Foam Cell is Tough Dog's twin-tube workhorse: a microcellular foam insert takes the place of the usual air gap inside the shock body, so the oil can't foam up as heat builds and the damping stays consistent on long corrugated stretches. The 40mm Adjustable adds 9-stage adjustable valving – run it softer for unloaded around-town driving, then firm it up when the vehicle is loaded for touring, without taking anything apart.
Sold as a pair. Strut replacement disturbs the front geometry, so a wheel alignment afterwards is part of the job.
Doing the whole vehicle at once? We also stock the matching rear Coil Springs and rear Coil Springs for the Toyota Fortuner & Hilux N70/N80.

Foam Cell is the all-round choice for touring – the foam insert stops the oil aerating so damping stays consistent on corrugations. Step up to the 9-stage Adjustable if the vehicle swings between unloaded weekdays and loaded trips and you want to tune the damping to match, or to the bigger-bore options if it works hard, hot and heavy most of the time.
Yes - the Hilux N80 Workmate 4x2 Hi Rider (10/2015-11/2025) uses the same FC404600 / BM404600 struts at OEM height as a heavy-duty upgrade.
The listed price covers both sides – always replace left and right together so the axle is evenly damped and sprung. Book a wheel alignment straight after fitting: any change to the front end moves camber and castor enough to affect steering and tyre wear.
