Tough Dog raised rear leaf springs for the LDV T60 Max (Pro, Luxe and Mega Tub - 09/2021 onwards), approximately 40mm of lift, sold per pair. Select the rating for how the ute is loaded: 0-300kg for mixed use, Constant 300kg or Constant 500kg for permanent loads like canopies and service bodies.
Add U-bolts, greasable shackles and pins, urethane bush kit or Air Assist bellows airbags from the options below.
These are progressive-rate packs – every leaf sits in contact along its full length with the leaf above, which is what keeps the unladen ride tolerable on a working ute.
Two-stage packs carry a lighter primary stage for everyday ride quality, with heavier second-stage leaves that only come into play as the load goes on – that's what stops the rear sagging with a canopy, tools or a camper on the back. Choose the rating by the constant load the vehicle carries, counting only permanent weight.
The matching U-bolts, greasable shackles and pins, and bush kits are available from the option dropdowns on this page – if the originals have been on since new, replace them while the pack is out rather than reusing stretched U-bolts.
Doing the whole vehicle at once? We also stock the matching rear Coil Springs and rear Shock Absorbers for the LDV T60 Max 09/2021-On.
Pair with Tough Dog rear shocks.

Choose the load rating for the weight the vehicle carries most of the time, counting only permanent fitments such as a bar, winch, canopy or drawers. A heavier rating than you need rides firm when unloaded; a lighter one sags once the gear goes in.
| Part number | Lift | Load rating | Suits / notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| FS214C | 40 mm | 0-300 kg | - |

| FS214LL | 40 mm | Constant 500 kg | - |
Leaf springs are replaced as a pair with the axle supported, the U-bolts removed and the spring unbolted from the front hanger and rear shackle. Fit new U-bolts, and replace worn shackle bushes and pins at the same time. Torque U-bolts to spec and re-check them after the first few hundred kilometres. Raised springs need shock absorbers with the correct extended length for the new ride height. In most states a suspension lift of up to 50 mm is allowed without certification under VSB14; larger lifts can require engineering approval, so check the rules for your state.

Load ratings refer to permanent extra weight over the axle. Springs do not change the vehicle's GVM or towing capacity.
0-300kg (FS214C) suits daily driving with variable loads. CONSTANT 300kg (FS214L) and CONSTANT 500kg (FS214LL) are for weight that never leaves the ute - canopy, drawers, service body. Constant-load springs ride firm when empty.
Tough Dog recommends replacing U-bolts whenever leaf springs are changed - add the U-bolt kit (TDUB-016 x2) from the options.
These suit the following applications: LDV T60 Max Pro, Luxe, Mega Tub (Leaf Spring Rear) 09/2021 - On. Check your build date and variant against the fitment table on this page – if you're not certain, contact us with your rego or VIN details and we'll confirm fitment before you order.
The listed price covers both sides – always replace left and right together so the axle is evenly damped and sprung. It's a bolt-in job for a competent home mechanic or any workshop; check bushes, mounts and brake-line slack while everything is apart.
The options on this listing are: 40 mm. Lift is measured at ride height with the vehicle's normal load. Raised springs need matching shock absorbers with the correct extended length.
Yes. The price covers both Tough Dog springs, one for each side.
