Product Overview

This kit is aimed at Hilux owners seeking a practical suspension upgrade that balances comfort and capability. Foam Cell shocks combined with tuned-rate springs reduce the harshness often felt in an unladen vehicle, improving stability on uneven surfaces. The ~40mm lift increases approach and breakover clearance, sharpens the vehicle’s stance and can accommodate larger tyres where regulations and vehicle clearances allow.

It is designed primarily for vehicles that do not routinely carry significant weight. If you regularly tow or operate with a constant payload, consider one of the heavy-duty kit options.

Foam Cell Shock Technology

Foam Cell shock absorbers use a special foam saturated with oil instead of relying on pressurised gas. This prevents aeration and cavitation so gas does not come out of the oil, keeping damping forces stable across the full stroke and helping control operating temperature over prolonged use. With greater oil capacity and improved heat dissipation, they resist fade and deliver reliable performance under demanding conditions, making them well suited for heavy-duty, towing and off-road applications.

Installation & Compatibility

Ezifit Struts are supplied pre-assembled with shock, coil spring, new top mount, bump stop and protective boot, so there is no need for spring compressors or re-using worn parts. Rear springs and hardware are direct replacements for factory components. A professional wheel alignment is recommended after installation for optimum tyre wear and steering response.

This comfort-focused kit is best suited to vehicles not used in a continuously laden state. For frequent towing or heavy loads, choose a heavy-duty alternative.

Helpful Tips & FAQs

• Tyre fitment: A ~40 mm lift may allow larger tyres depending on wheel offset and local regulations. Always check clearance at full steering lock and full suspension travel.
• Load carrying: If frequently carrying heavy loads or towing, consider heavy-duty spring options to maintain control and ride height.
• Aftercare: Re-torque suspension fasteners after initial settling and maintain correct tyre pressures for comfort and longevity.
