Choosing the correct spring rate is critical for optimal ride quality and suspension performance. Select your front coil spring and rear leaf spring rates based on the constant accessory load your Amarok carries — not occasional loads. Common constant front accessories include bull bars, winches, steel bumpers, upgraded intercoolers, and auxiliary batteries. Rear constant loads include canopies, toolboxes, drawer systems, dual spare wheel carriers, long-range fuel tanks, and permanently installed water tanks. Occasional loads like camping gear, tools, passengers, and towing are NOT constant loads — selecting spring rates for these will result in an overly firm, uncomfortable ride and premature wear of suspension components. When in doubt, consult our spring rate selection chart or contact our team for personalized recommendations.
Professional installation by a qualified 4WD mechanic is strongly recommended for this complete suspension lift kit. Installation requires specialized tools, suspension knowledge, and safe lifting equipment. A full 4-wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to ensure correct steering geometry, prevent premature tyre wear, and maintain vehicle safety. All Toughdog suspension components require a 500km break-in period during which springs will settle and shocks will bed in — expect final ride height to be achieved after this period. For Amarok owners seeking maximum suspension travel and improved wheel articulation, consider pairing this lift kit with upgraded control arms to correct ball joint angles and maximize suspension geometry.

This Toughdog Remote Reservoir Lift Kit is engineered to fit VW Amarok 2H series from 2010-2020, including both 2.0L TDI four-cylinder and 3.0L V6 TDI engine variants. It suits all trim levels including Core, Highline, and Ultimate specifications. The kit is designed specifically for the Amarok's unique suspension geometry and includes model-specific components like headlight relocation brackets. If you have a modified Amarok or are unsure about your specific variant, our suspension experts can confirm exact fitment before you order.
This Toughdog lift kit provides a balanced front and rear lift designed to achieve a level stance when constant accessories are fitted. Actual lift height varies depending on your selected spring rates and constant accessory load, typically ranging from 35-50mm. The kit is engineered to maximize ground clearance while maintaining safe suspension geometry and steering angles. Final ride height is achieved after the recommended 500km break-in period as springs settle and components bed in. Contact us for specific lift height recommendations based on your accessory configuration.
This is a comprehensive suspension upgrade including front TDR remote reservoir struts, raised front coil springs with selectable rates, heavy-duty rear leaf springs with selectable rates, and TDR remote reservoir rear shock absorbers. All necessary installation hardware is included: rear spring U-bolt kit, rear spring bush kit, rear centre bearing spacers, and headlight relocation bracket. The only items not included are upper control arms, which are available separately if required for your specific application. This is a complete bolt-in solution with every component needed for professional installation.
Yes, this remote reservoir lift kit is excellent for towing applications. The TDR remote res shocks provide fade-free damping performance under sustained load, maintaining control and stability when towing heavy caravans or trailers. By selecting the appropriate rear leaf spring rate for your towing configuration, you'll achieve optimal load support and ride quality. The remote reservoir design dissipates heat more effectively than conventional shocks, preventing performance degradation during extended towing sessions. For maximum towing performance and on-demand load leveling, many Amarok owners pair this kit with airbag suspension for the ultimate towing setup.
Control arm upgrades are not mandatory for this lift kit on the VW Amarok, as the engineered lift height maintains acceptable suspension geometry with factory control arms. However, upgraded control arms can provide benefits including improved wheel articulation, corrected ball joint angles, and enhanced suspension travel for serious off-road use. If you plan extensive off-road driving or want to maximize the performance of your lift kit, aftermarket control arms are a worthwhile investment. Our team can recommend specific control arm options suited to your driving style and intended use.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any suspension lift kit. Lifting your Amarok changes suspension geometry, steering angles, and wheel alignment settings — driving without proper alignment will cause premature and uneven tyre wear, poor handling, and potential safety issues. A qualified suspension or alignment specialist should perform the alignment using manufacturer-recommended specifications adjusted for the lift height. The alignment should be rechecked after the 500km break-in period once components have fully settled. Budget for professional alignment as part of your total installation cost.
Spring rate selection is based solely on your constant accessory load — the weight your Amarok carries permanently, not occasional loads. For the front, measure constant accessories like bull bars, winches, upgraded bumpers, and auxiliary batteries. For the rear, include canopies, toolboxes, drawer systems, dual spare wheels, and long-range fuel tanks. Do NOT select spring rates based on occasional camping gear, passengers, or towing loads — this results in over-sprung, harsh ride quality. When ordering, use our spring rate selection guide or contact our team who can calculate the correct rates based on your specific accessory list and weights.
Yes, this lift kit increases ground clearance and suspension clearance, allowing you to fit larger diameter all-terrain or mud-terrain tyres. Most Amarok owners can comfortably run tyres up to 32 inches diameter (approximately 275/70R17 or 265/70R17) with this lift and minimal additional modifications. Exact tyre fitment depends on your wheel offset, tyre width, and whether any trimming is performed. For the largest tyres, minor plastic guard trimming may be required at full lock and full compression. We recommend test-fitting and checking clearance at all suspension positions before committing to new tyres.
All Toughdog suspension components are backed by comprehensive manufacturer warranty coverage, demonstrating the brand's confidence in their engineering and build quality. Specific warranty terms vary by component — shock absorbers and struts typically carry substantial warranty periods, while springs and hardware have separate coverage. Warranty is valid when components are installed by qualified professionals, used within designed load ratings, and maintained according to manufacturer specifications. Keep your installation receipt and register your product for full warranty protection. Contact us for complete warranty terms and conditions specific to this kit.
Absolutely — this Toughdog remote reservoir kit is specifically engineered to deliver exceptional on-road comfort while providing superior off-road capability. The remote reservoir damping technology provides a noticeably more refined and controlled ride on highways, suburban roads, and city streets compared to conventional monotube shocks. You'll experience reduced harshness over bumps, better body control through corners, and quieter operation during daily driving. Many Amarok owners report this is the most comfortable suspension upgrade they've experienced, making it ideal for vehicles that serve dual duty as daily drivers and weekend adventure rigs.
Perfect Upgrade for Our Family Camping Rig
Finally bit the bullet and got the Toughdog remote reservoir kit fitted to our Amarok before our trip up to Fraser Island, and what a difference it's made. The ride quality is noticeably better on corrugated tracks, and the kids in the back aren't complaining about being bounced around anymore. Really happy with how it's transformed the vehicle for our monthly camping adventures, and the lift gives us that extra clearance we needed for beach driving.(5)
