Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for optimal performance and component longevity. When ordering, calculate your constant load only — this includes permanently installed accessories such as aluminium or steel canopies, under-tray toolboxes, dual battery systems, long-range fuel tanks, bull bars, rear bars, towing equipment, and touring gear that remains in the vehicle full-time. Occasional loads such as camping equipment, passengers for weekend trips, or intermittent towing should NOT be included in your constant load calculation, as selecting springs too heavy will result in harsh ride quality and potential damage to other suspension components. For variable loads, consider pairing these springs with airbag suspension systems for adjustable support.
Professional installation by a qualified mechanic or experienced 4WD suspension specialist is strongly recommended to ensure correct fitment, torque specifications, and safety. A comprehensive wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to prevent premature tyre wear and ensure optimal handling characteristics. Allow a 500-kilometre break-in period for the leaf springs to settle and seat properly — during this time, you may notice slight changes in ride height as the springs conform to your vehicle's load profile. For vehicles with modified ride height or increased lift, consider upgrading to extended control arms to maintain correct suspension geometry and maximise tyre clearance.
Toughdog has earned its reputation as Australia's number one suspension brand through decades of engineering excellence, rigorous outback testing, and unwavering commitment to quality. Every Toughdog component is designed and validated in Australian conditions — from corrugated outback tracks to coastal salt spray — ensuring your LDV T60 performs reliably wherever your journey takes you. Backed by comprehensive warranty coverage and trusted by tradies, tourers, and adventure seekers nationwide, the complete Toughdog suspension range delivers proven performance you can depend on.
These rear leaf springs are ideal for LDV T60 owners who have added permanent accessories and need to restore factory ride height and handling characteristics. Tradies carrying constant toolbox and equipment loads, touring enthusiasts with canopy setups and dual battery systems, and caravan or boat owners seeking improved towing stability will benefit significantly from the enhanced load capacity. If you frequently carry variable loads or tow occasionally rather than constantly, consider supplementing these springs with adjustable airbag suspension for on-demand load support without compromising unladen ride quality.

These Toughdog rear leaf springs are specifically engineered to fit LDV T60 models from 2017 onwards, including the T60 Max variant introduced in 2021. They're designed as direct replacements for the factory rear leaf springs with no modifications required to factory mounting points. The springs bolt directly to existing chassis mounts and spring hangers. To confirm exact fitment for your specific year and variant, use our online parts finder or contact our technical team with your vehicle's VIN number for guaranteed compatibility.
These Toughdog rear leaf springs are designed primarily for load support and constant load applications rather than lift. When replacing sagging factory springs on a loaded T60, they will restore your vehicle to factory ride height or slightly above depending on your constant accessory load. The actual ride height achieved will vary based on the weight of permanently installed accessories such as canopies, toolboxes, and touring equipment. If you're seeking increased ground clearance for off-road use, these springs work excellently as part of a complete suspension upgrade when paired with appropriate front suspension components.
This kit includes a pair (2 pieces) of Toughdog heavy-duty rear leaf springs specifically manufactured for the LDV T60, along with spring bushes, centre bolts, and essential mounting hardware. The springs come with premium powder-coat corrosion protection and are ready to install. Please note that U-bolts are typically sold separately as they're vehicle-specific and may vary depending on your particular setup. Shock absorbers are also sold separately — we recommend upgrading to Toughdog shocks at the same time for optimal matched performance and handling characteristics.
Yes, these Toughdog rear leaf springs significantly improve towing performance and stability when hauling caravans, camper trailers, or boat trailers with your LDV T60. The enhanced spring rate provides better load distribution and reduces rear-end sag under towing loads, improving control and safety. However, it's critical to select the correct spring rate based on your constant accessory load, not including the trailer weight. For frequent towers who want adjustable load support, we recommend pairing these springs with airbag suspension for variable load adjustment without compromising unladen ride quality.
For this particular rear leaf spring replacement on the LDV T60, control arm upgrades are not typically required as the springs are designed to maintain factory geometry and ride height specifications. However, if you're installing these as part of a complete suspension lift kit that also includes front suspension modifications, extended control arms may be necessary to maintain correct wheel alignment and suspension geometry. Control arms become essential when total lift exceeds 50mm to prevent issues with camber, caster angles, and drive-line vibrations. Our technical team can assess your complete setup and recommend appropriate complementary components.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing these rear leaf springs on your LDV T60. Even though you're replacing rear springs, changes in ride height and suspension geometry can affect overall vehicle alignment, toe angles, and thrust angles. Proper alignment ensures even tyre wear, optimal handling characteristics, and safe vehicle dynamics both on-road and off-road. We recommend having the alignment performed by a shop experienced with 4WD vehicles and suspension modifications. Most installers will include alignment as part of their installation service quote.
While Toughdog manufactures leaf springs in various load ratings for different applications, it's essential to select the spring rate that matches your constant accessory load — not occasional or variable loads. During ordering, accurately calculate the combined weight of permanently installed equipment such as canopies, toolboxes, dual batteries, long-range tanks, and touring gear that remains in your vehicle full-time. Selecting springs rated too heavy for your actual constant load will result in an uncomfortable, harsh ride and may cause premature wear to other suspension components. Our team can help you calculate your constant load and select the appropriate spring rate for your specific T60 setup.
These Toughdog rear leaf springs are designed primarily for load support rather than significant lift, so tyre clearance gains will be modest compared to a dedicated lift kit. If your goal is to fit substantially larger tyres, you'll need a complete suspension lift kit that addresses both front and rear suspension to achieve the necessary clearance and maintain balanced handling. These springs work well as part of a staged upgrade approach — install them now for load support, then add front suspension components later for additional lift. Our parts finder can show you complete lift kit options for the T60 that provide confirmed clearance for specific tyre sizes.
Toughdog stands behind their products with comprehensive warranty coverage that protects your investment against manufacturing defects and material failures.

The warranty requires professional installation with correct torque specifications and proper vehicle alignment.
