Product Overview

This 2 Inch lift kit for Toyota LandCruiser 70 Series VDJ78 / VDJ79 combines heavy duty front springs for bull bar and/or winch fitment with mining spec shock absorbers for harsh, dusty environments. The suspension lift is approximately +50mm and uses extended-length shocks with additional dust shields to support suspension travel and protection in abrasive conditions.

Foam Cell Shock Technology

Foam Cell shock absorbers use a special foam saturated with oil instead of relying on pressurised gas. This design prevents aeration and cavitation, keeping damping forces stable across the full stroke. With greater oil capacity and improved heat dissipation, they resist fade, control temperature, and deliver reliable performance even under demanding use. Their durability makes them well suited for heavy-duty, towing and off-road applications.

Installation & Compatibility

Supplied as a direct bolt-in replacement with no cutting or welding required. Wheel alignment required after installation.
