Dobinsons Monotube IMS 4 inch suspension kit Suitable For Nissan Patrol GQ and GU - front and rear shocks and coil springs

Fitted by mechanics, not just bolted on.

MyTuff4x4 is backed by MB Mechanical Repairs, a full mechanical workshop in Warwick Farm, in the trade since 2011. When we fit a lift kit we look at the whole vehicle, not just the springs and shocks: the CV angles, ball joints, bushes and steering that a lift puts extra strain on. If something is worn, or won’t suit the height you’re after, we tell you before you find out on the track.

Fitting a full kit typically runs $750–$950 in labour. On LandCruisers and Patrols that need the adjustable arms or caster correction bushes as well, it can go up to $1,150. A wheel alignment afterwards is $120, and on a lifted vehicle it isn’t optional.

Unit 13, C/4 Homepride Avenue, Warwick Farm NSW 2170 · 02 8747 0325

Not in Sydney? You’re still buying from mechanics. We fit these kits in our own workshop, so if you’re unsure about load ratings, lift height or what else your car will need, call 02 8747 0325 and talk to someone who does the job.

A Dobinsons IMS Monotube suspension kit for the Nissan Patrol GQ/GU. Lift height around 4″ (100mm).

A monotube runs a single tube with the oil and gas separated by a floating piston. That allows a bigger piston and much better heat rejection than a twin tube, which is what keeps the damping honest when the going gets rough.

What's in the kit

  • 2 × Dobinsons IMS Monotube Front Shock Absorbers (IMS45-60914)
  • 2 × Dobinsons 4″ Front Coil Springs (C45-314, C45-316 or C45-100 — matched to your bar and winch)
  • 2 × Dobinsons IMS Monotube Rear Shock Absorbers (IMS45-60913)
  • 2 × Dobinsons 4″ Rear Coil Springs (C45-107, C45-311T, C45-313T, C45-315T or C45-371T — matched to the load you carry)

Panhard rods, sway bar extensions, an adjustable draglink, castor correction bushes and a steering stabiliser can be added from the options above.

Worth knowing before you buy

There are no CV shafts in the front of a live axle vehicle, so the usual CV boot problem does not apply here. What does change as you lift it is the geometry around the axle.

Caster rolls backwards as the front comes up, and the steering goes light and starts to wander — at 4″ it needs caster correction bushes or plates. The panhard rod stays the same length while the axle moves up, so the axle shifts sideways under the body and the stance goes off centre — at 4″ adjustable panhard rods are strongly recommended. Brake lines get short and want extending. On a taller lift the tailshaft angle can bring on a vibration.

The heavier rear springs (250-400kg and 550-700kg) are tower-braced springs — Dobinsons recommend tower bracing with them.

None of it is difficult, but all of it needs doing properly. Ask us and we will tell you exactly what your vehicle needs at the height you are after.
