Tough Dog Big Bore Adjustable Suspension Lift Kit +125 mm (ABS) – Nissan Patrol Y61 (2000+)

Build a serious GU/Y61 Patrol with the Tough Dog Big Bore Adjustable Suspension Lift Kit +125 mm (≈5"), ABS-compatible. Designed in Australia for hard touring and competition use, this package combines high-flow, fade-resistant Big Bore Adjustable shocks, heavy-duty coil springs and the key geometry correction hardware needed to keep a tall Patrol driving straight and stable on- and off-road.

The kit delivers an approx. +125 mm lift (vehicle setup dependent), unlocking tyre clearance, approach/departure gains and articulation — while the 9-stage external shock adjustment lets you dial ride from compliant to controlled in seconds.

Main Features

• +125 mm (≈5") lift: Big, usable height for serious tracks and larger tyres.
• Big Bore Adjustable shocks (front & rear): Large oil volume for heat control; 9-stage on-vehicle damping adjustment.
• ABS-compatible kit: Components and routing designed to suit Patrol Y61 with ABS.
• Geometry sorted: Includes adjustable panhard rods and extended brake hoses to suit the lift.
• Load-matched coil springs: Heavy-duty coils selected for your accessory weight and use.

Tyre & Setup Guidance

Many +125 mm Patrol builds run 35"–37" tyres with correct offset and guard clearance. Check steering lock, bump stops and flares. Heavy accessories (steel bar, winch, twin batteries, drawers) may require firmer front/rear spring options.

FAQs

1) Is +125 mm road-legal?
Legality depends on local regulations and inspection rules. Check UK/EU requirements before use on public roads.

2) Will I need caster correction?
At +125 mm, yes, caster correction is typically required (arms or plates) to restore straight-line stability and steering feel.

3) Are panhard rods included?
Yes — front and rear adjustable panhard rods are supplied to re-centre both axles after the lift.

4) Are longer brake lines necessary?
Yes — extended brake hoses are included and must be correctly routed and bled after installation.

5) Can I tow with this kit?
Yes. Choose rear spring rates to suit constant load; pair with firmer shock settings. Airbags can assist in frequent heavy towing.

6) Do I need a steering damper?
A quality damper helps reduce kickback on rough terrain, especially with larger tyres. Consider upgrading if not already fitted.
