Frequently Asked Questions

Reach Out

  • What’s involved in a suspension upgrade for a 4WD?

    A suspension upgrade typically includes replacing factory springs and shock absorbers with components better suited to your vehicle's load and usage. The process may also involve adding new struts, bushes, shackles, and even airbags or sway bars depending on your goals. Upgrades can improve handling, off-road clearance, towing capability, and ride comfort. A professional fitter will assess your vehicle’s weight, usage, and accessories (like bull bars or rooftop tents) to recommend the best suspension setup for your driving needs.

  • Are aftermarket suspension kits legal in Australia?

    Yes, aftermarket suspension kits are legal in Australia, but they must comply with state and federal regulations. Most states allow suspension lifts up to 50mm (2 inches) without engineering certification. If the lift exceeds this limit, you may need a compliance certificate and additional testing to remain road-legal. It’s important to choose reputable, ADR-compliant components and have them fitted by a qualified professional. Always check your local transport authority’s rules before modifying your suspension to avoid fines or registration issues.

  • Can upgrading suspension improve ride comfort?

    Absolutely. A properly chosen suspension upgrade can improve ride comfort, especially if your factory suspension struggles under added weight or rough terrain. Heavy-duty shocks and progressive springs can absorb bumps more effectively and reduce body roll. For touring and off-road driving, upgraded suspension also helps keep the vehicle more level, reducing driver fatigue and passenger discomfort. However, comfort is subjective—so it’s worth speaking with an expert to find a balance between load capacity, off-road performance, and a smooth ride.
