Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for achieving optimal ride quality, safety and component longevity. Your spring rate should be based on your constant accessory load — the weight permanently fitted to your vehicle that is present during everyday driving. This includes accessories like steel bull bars, winches, long-range fuel tanks, dual battery systems, UHF radios, canopies or steel trays, drawer systems, roof racks with permanent loads, and heavy-duty rear bars. Occasional loads such as camping gear, passengers, water tanks that are emptied, firewood, or loads carried intermittently should NOT be included in your spring rate calculation as this will result in an overly stiff ride when unladen and can cause premature wear to other suspension components.
Common Front Constant Accessories: Steel bull bar (30-50kg), winch (30-40kg), driving lights (5kg), UHF antenna and mounting (3kg), upgraded battery (10kg), long range fuel tank if front-mounted (varies).
Common Rear Constant Accessories: Steel canopy or hard lid (60-100kg), drawer systems (40-80kg), dual battery and inverter setup (20-30kg), permanent roof rack loads (10-30kg), rear bar with wheel carrier (40-60kg), auxiliary fuel tank (empty weight 20-40kg).
Professional installation by a qualified mechanic or experienced 4WD workshop is strongly recommended for rear leaf spring replacement. This ensures correct torque specifications, proper spring seating, and safety-critical fastener integrity. Wheel alignment is mandatory after installation as ride height changes affect suspension geometry and tyre wear patterns. A 500km break-in period is required to allow bushings to settle and springs to achieve their final operating height — recheck all fastener torques after this period. When upgrading rear leaf springs, consider pairing with quality shock absorbers matched to your new spring rates, and inspect suspension components like shackles and bushings for wear.

These Toughdog rear leaf springs are ideal for Toyota Hilux N80 owners who carry constant heavy loads, regularly tow caravans or work trailers, or have added significant accessory weight to their vehicle. Tradespeople carrying toolboxes and equipment, touring families with permanent canopy and drawer setups, and caravan towers seeking improved stability and reduced sag will all benefit from the correct spring rate selection. If you experience variable loads or want the ability to adjust for occasional heavy loads, consider supplementing your leaf springs with airbag suspension for on-demand load support without compromising unladen ride quality.

These Toughdog rear leaf springs are specifically engineered for Toyota Hilux N80 series from 2015-onwards, including all body styles (single cab, extra cab, and dual cab). They fit both pre-facelift (2015-2018) and facelift (2018-onwards) models including GUN126R variants. The springs are manufactured to exact OEM mounting dimensions for direct bolt-in replacement. If you're unsure about your specific model year or variant, our team can verify fitment using your VIN number before dispatch.
Rear lift height depends on the spring rate you select and your vehicle's constant accessory load. When correctly matched to your load, these springs will restore factory ride height if your current springs have sagged, or provide 0-50mm lift depending on the rate chosen and weight carried. The primary purpose is load capacity and ride quality rather than maximum lift height. For significant lift requirements, we recommend exploring complete lift kit solutions that include matched front and rear components. Our team can help determine expected lift based on your specific accessory weight and spring rate selection.
This package includes a pair (2 springs) of Toughdog heavy-duty rear leaf springs with centre bolts and protective coating applied. The springs are matched to your selected load rating. U-bolts, spring bushes, shackles and mounting hardware are NOT included and must be purchased separately as these are often reusable from your existing setup or may need replacement depending on their condition. We recommend inspecting all mounting hardware during installation and replacing worn components. Our team can supply all necessary hardware and bushings to complete your installation.
Yes, when correctly rated for your constant load, these Toughdog leaf springs are excellent for towing applications. They significantly reduce rear sag under towball weight, maintain proper suspension geometry, and improve stability when towing caravans, camper trailers or work trailers. The progressive spring rate provides firm support under load while maintaining reasonable comfort when unladen. For maximum towing capability and adjustability, many customers pair quality leaf springs with airbag suspension to fine-tune support based on varying trailer weights. Always ensure your total combination mass remains within legal limits.
While these leaf springs are a direct replacement, we strongly recommend pairing them with quality shock absorbers matched to your new spring rates for optimal performance and safety. Old or worn shocks cannot properly control new springs and will compromise ride quality and handling. Inspect all bushings, shackles and U-bolts during installation and replace any worn components. If you're adding significant lift or load capacity, upgraded suspension components including extended brake lines and bump stops may be required. Our team can recommend a complete matched suspension package for your specific requirements.
Yes, wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing new rear leaf springs. Any change in rear ride height affects your vehicle's suspension geometry, which impacts tyre wear patterns, handling characteristics and steering feel. Professional four-wheel alignment should be performed after installation and again after the 500km break-in period once springs have fully settled. Skipping alignment will result in premature and uneven tyre wear, reduced fuel economy, and compromised handling. Most reputable 4WD workshops include post-installation alignment as part of their fitting service.
Spring rate selection must be based solely on your constant accessory load — the permanent weight fitted to your vehicle during everyday driving. Calculate the total weight of items like bull bars, winches, canopies, drawer systems, dual batteries, roof racks with permanent loads, and rear bars. Do NOT include occasional loads like camping gear, passengers, water you'll empty, or items carried intermittently. Selecting too heavy a spring rate results in harsh ride quality and potential damage to other suspension components. Our team can help calculate your constant load and recommend the appropriate spring rate for optimal performance.
Tyre fitment depends on the total lift achieved, which varies based on spring rate and your constant load. These rear leaf springs may provide 0-50mm of rear lift when properly matched to your accessories. For clearance of significantly larger tyres, you'll also need appropriate front lift to maintain balanced geometry. Larger tyres also affect gearing, speedo accuracy, and may require guard trimming or body lift depending on size. We recommend discussing your desired tyre size with our team who can specify a complete suspension solution including front and rear components to safely achieve your goals while maintaining proper handling balance.
Toughdog leaf springs are backed by the manufacturer's comprehensive warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions. Warranty terms apply when springs are correctly rated for your vehicle's constant load and professionally installed according to specifications. Warranty does not cover damage from overloading beyond rated capacity, improper installation, accident damage, or normal wear from extreme use. Keep your purchase receipt and installation documentation for warranty claims. Australian warranty claims are processed efficiently through our local support network ensuring minimal downtime if issues arise.
Absolutely — when correctly matched to your constant load, these Toughdog leaf springs deliver excellent on-road comfort for daily driving while providing the load capacity needed for work and touring. The progressive spring design ensures comfortable ride quality when unladen, firming progressively under load for stability and control. They're engineered for the dual-purpose demands of Australian 4WD owners who need their vehicles to perform as comfortable daily drivers during the week and capable tourers or work vehicles on weekends. Correct spring rate selection is essential — overly stiff springs chosen for occasional heavy loads will compromise daily driving comfort unnecessarily.
