Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for ride quality, component longevity and vehicle handling. You must choose spring rates based on constant accessory weight — items permanently fitted to your Navara NP300, not occasional loads like camping gear or passengers.
Front constant accessories include: steel bullbar, winch, dual battery system, long range fuel tank, roof racks, driving lights and UHF aerials. A typical steel bullbar with winch adds 60-80kg constant load. Rear constant accessories include: steel rear bar, tow hitch, canopy or hardtop, drawer systems, auxiliary fuel tanks, dual battery in the tub, and permanently mounted recovery gear. A canopy with drawer system typically adds 100-200kg constant load.
Warning: Selecting spring rates heavier than your actual constant load (trying to account for occasional camping gear or trailer weight) will result in a harsh, uncomfortable ride, premature wear on bushes and ball joints, and potential damage to other suspension components. Occasional loads and towing weights are NOT considered constant load for spring selection purposes.
Professional installation by a qualified 4WD workshop is strongly recommended for this complete suspension kit. Installation typically requires 6-8 hours and involves removal of factory suspension components, fitment of new struts, coils, leaf springs, shocks and associated hardware. Spring compressors and specialised tools are required for safe assembly.
Wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to ensure correct camber, caster and toe settings — failure to align will result in uneven tyre wear and compromised handling. A 500km break-in period is required to allow springs to settle and bushes to bed in — recheck wheel alignment after this period.
Consider upgrading to heavy-duty control arms if you're lifting beyond 50mm or running aggressive off-road use, as this improves geometry and ball joint lifespan. Extended brake lines may also be required depending on final lift height achieved.
Toughdog has been Australia's number one choice for 4WD suspension for over three decades, trusted by tradespeople, tourers and off-road enthusiasts across the country.

This kit is ideal for tradies carrying constant toolbox and equipment loads who need rear leaf springs rated for 300-500kg to eliminate sag and maintain safe handling with heavy payloads. Touring enthusiasts fitting canopies, roof-top tents, dual battery systems and water tanks will appreciate the customisable spring rates that deliver comfort unladen yet handle weekend adventure loads without bottoming out. Caravan towers benefit from the upgraded rear leaf springs and matched damping that maintain vehicle stability, reduce sway and improve braking performance when towing heavy vans across long distances — though those regularly towing at GCM should also consider supplementary airbag suspension for maximum load control and adjustability.

This kit is specifically engineered for Nissan Navara NP300 models (2015-ON) equipped with rear leaf spring suspension. It fits both 4WD and RWD variants with leaf rear. If your NP300 has coil spring rear suspension (some variants), you will need a different kit specification. Check your vehicle's rear suspension type or contact our team to confirm fitment before ordering.
This Toughdog kit typically provides 35-50mm of lift at the front and 40-60mm at the rear, depending on the spring rates selected and your vehicle's constant accessory load. Actual lift height achieved varies based on the weight of your bullbar, canopy, toolboxes and other permanent accessories. Vehicles with heavier constant loads will sit slightly lower than lightly equipped vehicles, which is why correct spring rate selection is critical for achieving your desired ride height.
This complete kit includes front strut assemblies, front raised coil springs (choice of 0-60kg or 60-100kg constant load rating), rear leaf spring assemblies (with optional upgrade to 300kg or 500kg constant load), rear shock absorbers, rear spring U-bolt hardware kit, and rear leaf spring bush kit. All necessary mounting hardware and bushes are included for a complete installation. Upper control arms, extended brake lines and alignment are not included but may be required depending on your final lift height.
Yes, this kit is excellent for towing when configured with appropriate spring rates. The upgraded rear leaf springs (especially the optional 300kg or 500kg constant load upgrade) significantly reduce rear-end sag when towing, improving stability, braking performance and headlight aim under load. The matched Toughdog shock absorbers provide superior damping control to reduce trailer sway and maintain vehicle composure on corrugated roads. For maximum towing performance and adjustability, consider adding supplementary airbag suspension which allows on-the-fly pressure adjustment for different towing loads.
Control arm upgrades are not mandatory for this lift kit but are highly recommended if you're achieving more than 50mm of lift or plan aggressive off-road use. Upgraded heavy-duty control arms improve front-end geometry after lifting, reduce ball joint wear, and provide better articulation and castor correction for improved highway handling. They're particularly important for vehicles running larger tyres or carrying heavy bullbar and winch setups. We can advise on the best control arm options for your specific Navara NP300 configuration.
Yes, professional wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing this lift kit. Changing your vehicle's suspension alters camber, caster and toe angles, which directly affects tyre wear, steering feel and handling characteristics. Driving without proper alignment will cause rapid and uneven tyre wear, pulling to one side, and potentially unsafe handling. We recommend getting aligned immediately after installation, then rechecking alignment after the 500km break-in period once springs have fully settled to their final ride height.
Yes, selecting the correct spring rates front and rear is essential for optimal performance and ride quality. You must choose based on your constant accessory weight only — permanently fitted items like bullbars, winches, canopies and drawer systems. For the front, choose 0-60kg springs if running a lightweight aluminium bar, or 60-100kg constant load springs for steel bullbar with winch. For the rear, standard leaf springs suit light use, while the 300kg or 500kg constant load upgrade is essential for tradespeople, permanent canopy setups or those carrying heavy equipment daily.
This lift kit typically allows fitment of tyres up to 265/70R17 or 265/65R18 (approximately 31-32 inches) with minimal to no trimming on standard offset wheels. Larger tyres may require additional modifications such as guard trimming, offset wheels or aftermarket upper control arms to prevent rubbing at full lock or during suspension compression. Tyre clearance also depends on your wheel offset and backspacing. We recommend test-fitting your desired tyre size before purchase, or consulting with our team about the largest tyre that will fit your specific Navara NP300 configuration.
This Toughdog suspension kit is backed by Toughdog's comprehensive manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Warranty coverage varies by component type and is subject to correct installation by a qualified workshop, proper spring rate selection for your vehicle's load, and regular maintenance. Warranty does not cover wear items, damage from incorrect installation, overloading beyond rated capacity, or modifications. Full warranty terms and conditions are provided with your kit, and our team can answer specific warranty questions before you purchase.
Absolutely — this Toughdog kit is engineered to deliver excellent on-road comfort for daily driving while also providing superior off-road capability when needed. The foam cell shock technology and carefully tuned valving provide compliant highway ride quality without the harshness associated with cheaper lift kits. When you select the correct spring rates for your constant accessory load (not over-springing), you'll maintain near-factory ride comfort for commuting and long-distance touring. Thousands of Australian Navara NP300 owners run Toughdog suspension as their daily driver with complete satisfaction for both weekday work duties and weekend adventures.
