This complete Tough Dog TD-R Pro kit lifts the Toyota LandCruiser 78/79 Series approximately 2 inches (50mm) and replaces the shocks at both ends with Tough Dog's remote reservoir TD-R Pro Series. It suits the single cab (10/1999 - On), the 78 Series Troop Carrier and the dual cab (2012 - On); choose the rear spring for your cab and load in the dropdown.
The TD-R Pro Series sits at the top of the Tough Dog range: monotube construction with a high-flow race piston, plus a gas-charged remote reservoir that prevents aeration and gives the oil somewhere to shed heat on sustained rough-road running. Compression and rebound are independently adjustable through 8 stages each, so the vehicle can be set for its load and the country it is crossing.
Prefer to buy the parts separately? We stock the matching TD-R front shocks, TD-R rear shocks, TD-R front coil springs and rear leaf springs. For a lower-cost Tough Dog kit see the dual cab kit or the single cab kit with foam cell or adjustable shocks.
Front springs: Up to Steel Bar, or Steel Bar and Winch (+ $10.00). Rear springs are the same Tough Dog leaf packs for both cabs, but each pack carries a different rating on the lighter single cab and the heavier dual cab, so pick the line that names your cab and the weight the vehicle carries all the time.

It suits the 79 Series single cab and 78 Series Troop Carrier from 10/1999 on, and the 79 Series dual cab from 2012 on. Choose the rear spring line that names your cab. 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 contains 2 x TD-R Pro front shock absorbers, 2 x TD-R Pro rear shock absorbers, 2 x front coil springs, 2 x rear leaf springs, 1 x rear U-bolt kit, 1 x rear leaf spring bush kit, 1 x greasable pins and shackles kit, 1 x brake bias bracket and 1 x handbrake cable relocation bracket. Castor correction, a panhard rod and a steering damper are not in the kit.
Approximately 50mm (2 inch) front and rear 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 same Tough Dog leaf packs are used on both cabs, but each pack is rated differently on the single cab and the heavier dual cab. Pick the line that names your cab, then the weight the vehicle carries all the time: tray, canopy, service body, drawers, long-range tank. Camping gear and an occasional trailer do not count.
Compression and rebound are each adjustable through 8 stages, independently of each other. That lets you firm the vehicle up for a load or corrugations and back it off for empty running.
All TD-R Pro Series parts and mounting brackets are designed for a standard specification vehicle. Bar work, trays, canopies, long-range tanks and air bags may affect where the shocks and reservoirs fit, so tell us what is on the vehicle before you order or book fitting.
A 50mm (2 inch) suspension lift is within the limit most Australian states allow 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.
Yes. The lift changes castor on the LandCruiser, so book a wheel alignment straight after fitting. Re-torque the U-bolts after the first 500 km and grease the shackles at each service.
