Pedders Heavy Duty Rear Load Carrying Suspension Kit for Toyota Hilux

This kit is designed for Hilux owners who regularly carry heavy loads or tow and want to keep the vehicle's original stance. It enhances rear load support and towing performance while maintaining standard ride height when unladen.

Key Features

• Maintains standard rear ride height when unladen
• Significantly improved rear load carrying and towing capability
• Heavy-duty rear leaf springs
• Durable Foam Cell rear shock absorbers
• High-quality bushes and U-bolts included
• Direct-replacement rear components; no front suspension modifications required
• 2-year / 25,000 mile warranty

Product Overview

The upgrade targets rear-axle support to reduce sag under load or when towing, offering a clear improvement over the standard suspension setup. It preserves factory ride height and vehicle dynamics, making it suitable where additional rear support is needed without altering the front.

On an unladen vehicle, a slightly firmer ride compared to stock may be noticeable. If maximising comfort is the priority and heavy loads are infrequent, alternative ride-focused solutions may be preferable.

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

The included rear components are direct replacements for the original parts and do not require modifications to the front suspension. After installation, a wheel alignment check is recommended to ensure optimum performance.

Best suited to vehicles that frequently carry heavy loads or tow while wishing to maintain the standard vehicle height.
