Choosing the right rear spring rate comes down to what you carry on the vehicle every day, not just what you carry occasionally. A 60 Series running a steel rear bar, dual battery tray, drawer system and long-range fuel tank sits under constant load and benefits from this heavy duty pair. Common accessories that push buyers toward a heavier rear spring include tow bars, water tanks, rear drawers, dual batteries, canopies and permanently fitted camper or caravan hitches — talk to our team about your combined accessory weight before ordering.
Fitting rear leaf springs on a 60 Series is a bolt-in job for an experienced DIY installer with a workshop press or hoist, though most owners have it done by a suspension fitter given the U-bolt and shackle work involved. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting, as ride height and axle angle change the moment new springs go in. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for the leaf pack to settle before final alignment checks. These vehicles use solid axles on leaf springs, with no control arms or struts to upgrade; caster at lift height is corrected with caster wedges between the axle and leaf pack, and extended shackles or brake lines may be needed depending on the kit.
Toughdog has built a name in the Australian 4WD market on spring and shock packages designed specifically for local touring and towing conditions. Their leaf springs are manufactured with heat-treated steel and finished with corrosion protection to handle Australian road and track conditions, and every pair is sold with a manufacturer warranty. Tradespeople and tourers running heavier rear loads on their 60 Series turn to Toughdog because the parts are matched to real-world accessory weights — view the full Toughdog range for matching shocks and front springs.
This heavy duty rear leaf spring pair suits 60 Series owners who tow trailers or caravans, run a loaded canopy or drawer system, or carry constant rear accessory weight for remote touring. Tradespeople using their LandCruiser as a daily work vehicle with a steel tray or tool storage will also benefit from the added rear support. If your load varies significantly trip to trip, it's worth also looking at airbag suspension to fine-tune rear height on the fly.

Yes, this Toughdog rear leaf spring pair is built specifically for the Toyota LandCruiser 60 Series produced from 1980 to 1990. It suits both wagon and troop carrier body styles fitted with the standard leaf spring rear end. If you're unsure of your exact build or engine variant, our team can confirm fitment before you order using the chassis or compliance plate details.
This spring pair is designed primarily to restore correct ride height on a sagged rear end and to support constant accessory loads, rather than deliver an aggressive lift. The actual height gained depends on your current spring condition and the weight already carried on the rear axle. Our team can talk you through expected results based on your accessory setup and whether a taller option suits your needs better.
You get a pair of Toughdog heavy duty rear leaf spring assemblies, manufactured from heat-treated steel with a corrosion-resistant coating and correct spring eye bushes fitted. U-bolts and other mounting hardware are sold separately, as is a matched shock absorber if you need one. Check the kit contents list on this page for the full itemised breakdown.
Yes, this heavy duty pair is built to carry constant accessory loads such as tow bars, dual batteries and long-range tanks without excessive sag, which makes it a solid choice for towing setups. It's not a maximum-rated commercial spring, so if you're running very heavy trailers or a loaded caravan permanently, discuss your total tow ball and rear axle weight with our team first. Matching shocks help keep the ride settled once the springs are loaded.
This vehicle runs solid axles on leaf springs, so there are no upper or lower control arms or struts like an IFS vehicle. When lifting with taller leaf springs, caster change is corrected with caster wedges fitted between the front axle and the leaf packs, and longer shackles or extended brake lines may be needed depending on lift height. Our team can advise what your build needs.
Yes, wheel alignment is required after fitting new rear leaf springs, as ride height and axle angle change once the new spring pack settles. We recommend booking an alignment straight after installation and again after the 500km bedding-in period. Skipping this step can lead to uneven tyre wear and handling that doesn't match the new suspension setup.
Toughdog offers rear leaf springs in different constant-load ratings to suit varying accessory weights, and this listing is the heavy duty option. If your rear axle carries less constant weight, a standard-rate pair may ride more comfortably unladen. Contact our team with your accessory list and typical load and we'll confirm which rating suits your 60 Series best.
Restoring correct rear ride height with this spring pair can improve clearance slightly if your current springs are sagged, but this product isn't a dedicated lift kit for fitting larger tyres. If a bigger tyre is the goal, you'll want to look at a front and rear lift kit combination rather than rear leaf springs alone. Our team can advise on a package that achieves the tyre clearance you're after.
This Toughdog rear leaf spring pair is covered by Toughdog's manufacturer warranty against defects in material and workmanship. Keep your proof of purchase from 4WD Suspension Australia as this is required for any warranty claim. Contact our team directly if you have any concerns after fitting and we'll guide you through the process.
Yes, this heavy duty pair is designed to maintain a workable ride quality even when the vehicle isn't fully loaded, not just when carrying maximum accessory weight. Daily drivers running a permanent tow bar, dual battery or drawer system get the load support they need without an overly stiff unladen ride. If your 60 Series runs light most of the time, ask our team whether a standard-rate spring suits your driving better.
