Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I upgrade my 4x4 suspension?
Upgrading your 4x4 suspension improves ride quality, load handling, and off-road performance. Factory suspension systems are often designed for general use, not heavy-duty driving or carrying gear. An upgraded setup provides better support, greater control, and helps reduce wear and tear on your vehicle, especially when towing or heading off-road. It can also help maintain proper ride height and ground clearance when carrying additional weight. Whether you're heading into the bush, towing a caravan, or driving regularly on rough roads, a suspension upgrade gives you more comfort, safety, and confidence behind the wheel. It’s one of the most effective improvements you can make to your 4WD.
How do I know if my suspension needs replacing?
There are several signs your 4x4 suspension may need attention. Common issues include uneven tyre wear, poor handling, excessive body roll when cornering, nose-diving under braking, or a noticeably rougher ride. You might also hear clunks or squeaks when going over bumps. In some cases, your vehicle may sit unevenly or lower than usual. If you're towing or carrying loads and the rear sags too much, that’s another strong indicator. Suspension components wear gradually, so changes in performance can creep in over time. Regular inspections help catch problems early. If you’re unsure, it’s always best to have your suspension checked by a professional.
Can I lift my vehicle by upgrading suspension?
Yes, suspension upgrades can increase your vehicle’s ride height. A suspension lift typically raises your 4WD by 40mm to 50mm, offering better ground clearance for off-roading or load support. Lifting through suspension is one of the safest and most legal ways to increase height, provided it’s done within regulations and with approved components. It’s important to consider how a lift might affect your steering, braking, and handling, especially if you're towing or carrying heavy loads. A well-planned suspension lift can improve performance and versatility without sacrificing safety. Always consult a professional to make sure your lift complies with local road rules and suits your driving needs.
