Product Overview

This kit offers a reliable and cost-effective solution to replace the original self-levelling rear suspension. The original system's weaker springs rely on a hydraulic self-levelling shock absorber that supports vehicle weight. When these shocks fail, the vehicle sits lower. The Pedders kit supplies matched springs and SportsRyder gas struts specifically valved to restore and maintain the correct ride height. This system eliminates the need for troublesome and expensive self-levelling shocks.

Suitable for daily driving, the kit is designed to maintain factory stance and ride characteristics. It fits any wheel size despite height measurements being specified with 16-inch wheels.

Technology & Materials

The kit uses Pedders SportsRyder gas struts featuring heavy-duty twin-tube gas construction and reinforced, double-welded mountings to ensure durability and consistent performance under load.

Installation & Compatibility

The conversion kit is a direct bolt-in replacement requiring no modifications or additional parts, utilising existing original equipment hardware. It is an easy and cost-effective way to switch from coil-over suspension to a conventional system. Professional wheel alignment after installation is recommended to ensure correct handling.

Designed for standard ride height restoration rather than heavy-duty towing or constant load scenarios.
