Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for optimal ride quality and component longevity. Base your selection on the constant accessory weight you carry in your T60 — not occasional loads. Front accessories include steel bullbars (30-50kg), winches (30-40kg), driving lights (5-10kg), and upgraded batteries. Rear constant loads include canopies (60-100kg), dual battery systems (25kg), drawer systems (40-80kg), long-range fuel tanks (40kg empty), and permanently mounted toolboxes. For occasional heavy loads or frequent towing, consider pairing this lift kit with airbag suspension rather than over-rating your springs, which will result in harsh ride quality when unladen.
This kit requires professional installation or experienced DIY fitting with appropriate tools including spring compressors, torque wrench, and jack stands rated for the vehicle weight. A professional wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to ensure correct camber, caster and toe settings, preventing premature tyre wear and maintaining safe handling characteristics. All suspension components require a 500km break-in period before re-torquing all fasteners to specification. When lifting beyond 40mm, consider upgrading to adjustable control arms to restore factory suspension geometry and maximise tyre life.
Toughdog has earned its reputation as Australia's number one suspension brand through decades of proven performance in the harshest conditions. Every component is designed and tested locally to withstand the unique challenges of Australian touring — corrugated outback roads, extreme temperature variations, heavy payloads and coastal corrosion. Toughdog suspension is trusted by tradespeople who depend on reliability, grey nomads touring remote Australia, and weekend warriors seeking adventure. Explore the complete Toughdog suspension range for complementary upgrades including steering dampers, bushings and extended shackles.
This lift kit suits LDV T60 owners who need increased ground clearance for off-road touring, enhanced load capacity for work equipment and tools, or improved aesthetics with larger tyre fitment. It's ideal for tradespeople carrying heavy equipment, touring families with rooftop tents and camping gear, and caravan towers requiring level ride height under drawbar loads. If you regularly exceed 300kg rear payload or frequently tow at GCM, consider the 500kg constant load rear springs or supplement with adjustable airbag suspension for maximum versatility.

Yes, this kit is designed to fit all LDV T60 and T60 Max variants from 2017 to current models equipped with the 2.8L diesel engine. The kit suits both standard and upgraded variants including Luxe and Pro specifications. The front struts and coils are engineered specifically for the T60's independent front suspension geometry, while the rear leaf springs match the tub chassis configuration. If you have aftermarket modifications or are unsure about your specific model year, check our parts finder or contact our team for confirmation before ordering.
This Toughdog kit provides approximately 40-50mm of lift height at both front and rear, measured at the chassis. Actual lift height can vary slightly depending on your chosen spring rates and existing accessory weight. The comfort and medium load springs typically deliver 40-45mm lift, while constant load springs may provide slightly less lift when under their rated load due to compression. This lift height is ideal for fitting 31-32 inch tyres (depending on wheel offset) and significantly improves ground clearance for off-road tracks, beach driving and touring applications without requiring extensive driveline modifications.
This complete kit includes two front struts (fully assembled units), two front raised coil springs in your choice of rating, two heavy-duty rear leaf springs in your selected load capacity, two rear shock absorbers, a complete rear spring U-bolt hardware kit, and a rear spring polyurethane bush kit. All necessary mounting hardware and fitment instructions are supplied. Note that extended brake lines, upper control arms, differential drop brackets, and extended sway bar links are not included but may be required depending on your vehicle's existing modifications and your chosen spring rates. These components are available separately from our suspension range.
Absolutely — this kit is excellent for towing when you select the appropriate rear spring rating. For regular caravan towing, we recommend the constant 300kg or 500kg rear leaf springs which maintain level ride height under drawbar loads and prevent squat. The upgraded shocks provide superior damping control when towing, improving stability and reducing sway. However, spring selection should be based on your constant payload, not towing loads alone. For maximum towing versatility with the ability to adjust ride height based on load, consider pairing this kit with supplementary airbag suspension which allows on-the-fly adjustment without over-rating your springs for unladen driving.
While not mandatory for a 40-50mm lift, upgraded or adjustable control arms are highly recommended to restore factory suspension geometry and maximise component life. Lifting your T60 alters the control arm angles, which can affect camber and caster settings, potentially causing accelerated tyre wear and reduced steering precision. Adjustable control arms allow your installer to dial in optimal geometry during wheel alignment, ensuring even tyre wear and maintaining factory handling characteristics. If you're already replacing control arms due to worn bushings, or planning to fit larger tyres, upgrading to heavy-duty adjustable arms is worthwhile for long-term performance and reduced maintenance costs.
Yes, a professional four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any lift kit on your LDV T60. Lifting the vehicle alters suspension geometry, changing camber, caster and toe angles from factory specifications. Without proper alignment, you'll experience rapid and uneven tyre wear, pulling to one side, and compromised handling safety. Your alignment technician should have the equipment to measure and adjust all angles to either factory specifications or recommended settings for lifted vehicles. Book your alignment immediately after installation before driving any significant distance, and have it rechecked after the recommended 500km break-in period once all components have settled and fasteners have been re-torqued.
Select spring rates based on the constant accessory weight you carry permanently on your vehicle, not occasional loads or towing weight. Calculate your front constant load by adding bullbar weight (if fitted), winch, driving lights, upgraded batteries, and any permanent accessories. For the rear, include canopy or tub liner weight, drawer systems, dual battery setups, permanently mounted toolboxes, and empty long-range fuel tank weight. Comfort springs suit minimal accessories (0-50kg front, 0-100kg rear), medium suits moderate accessories (50-100kg front, 100-200kg rear), and constant load suits heavy permanent accessories (100kg+ front, 200kg+ rear). The 500kg rear option is for tradespeople with extremely heavy constant payloads. Selecting springs too heavy for your actual load will result in harsh ride quality.
With the 40-50mm lift provided by this kit, you can typically fit 31-32 inch tyres (approximately 265/70R17 to 265/75R17) on the LDV T60 without additional modifications, depending on your wheel offset. Some minor trimming of plastic inner guards may be required for full articulation and steering lock clearance, particularly if you choose aggressive tread patterns or wider tyres. For 33 inch tyres and larger, you'll likely need additional modifications including body mount chops, diff drop brackets, and potentially adjustable control arms to maintain correct suspension geometry. Always test fit tyres at full steering lock and full suspension compression before committing to prevent rubbing on guards, control arms or chassis components during off-road articulation.
Toughdog suspension components are backed by a comprehensive manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship when fitted and used correctly according to specifications. The warranty period varies by component type — typically coil springs and leaf springs carry a lifetime warranty against breakage, while shock absorbers are covered for a specified period from date of purchase. Warranty coverage requires professional installation with correct torque specifications, mandatory wheel alignment, and use within the rated load capacities. Warranty does not cover wear and tear from normal use, damage from incorrect installation, overloading beyond rated capacity, or use in competition or modified applications. Retain your purchase receipt and installation records for warranty claims.
Yes, this kit is designed to maintain excellent on-road manners for daily commuting and highway touring while delivering enhanced off-road capability. When you select springs matched to your actual constant load, the ride quality remains compliant and comfortable for unladen and lightly loaded driving. Toughdog's shock valving provides a balance between controlled damping for load carrying and comfort for everyday use. The kit doesn't compromise highway stability — in fact, many owners report improved high-speed stability and reduced body roll compared to worn factory suspension. For the best daily driving experience, be honest about your constant accessory weight when selecting spring rates, avoiding the temptation to over-rate springs for occasional heavy loads which will result in harsh, uncomfortable ride quality most of the time.
Perfect Upgrade for Our Family Camping Rig
Finally got this Toughdog lift kit fitted to our T60 and couldn't be happier with the results. The extra clearance has made a huge difference on the beach tracks down south, and the kids' gear in the back doesn't bottom us out anymore. Ride quality is noticeably better than stock, even when we're loaded up for a long weekend. Well worth the investment for anyone doing regular touring.(5)
Perfect Upgrade for Our Family Camping Rig
Had this Toughdog lift kit fitted to our LDV T60 before our trip down the Cape York Development Road and it handled the corrugations brilliantly. The kids actually slept in the back seats for once instead of complaining about being bounced around. Really happy with the ride quality on both highway and dirt tracks, and the extra clearance gave us the confidence to tackle some rougher sections we would've avoided before.(5)
