Ironman 4x4 FoamCell Suspension Lift Kit +4" (100mm) – Nissan Patrol Y60 (1987–1997) – 2.8 & 4.2 Diesel

This is a proper 4-inch Patrol lift — done correctly. The Ironman 4x4 FoamCell +4" (100mm) Suspension Lift Kit is engineered for the Nissan Patrol Y60 (1987–1997), suitable for both 2.8 and 4.2 diesel variants.

Unlike basic spring-and-shock kits, this is a complete 4" solution. It includes FoamCell heavy-duty shocks, matched +4" coil springs, adjustable front and rear panhard rods, extended brake hose extensions, extended rear sway bar links, and heavy-duty drop boxes to manage geometry, axle centring and driveline angles.

Designed for touring, overland builds, winch bumpers, drawers and larger tyres, this kit delivers controlled damping, correct suspension geometry and long-term durability.
