Toyota LandCruiser 79 Series Suspension Upgrade Guide

Improve load support, towing stability and rear suspension control with a RoadActive Suspension kit designed for the Toyota LandCruiser 79 Series. This guide covers compatible 2007–Current models fitted with rear leaf springs.

Why Choose RoadActive Suspension for Your LandCruiser 79 Series?

The Toyota LandCruiser 79 Series is widely used for towing, touring, agriculture, mining, construction and commercial work. These vehicles are often fitted with canopies, toolboxes, service equipment, touring setups and other loads that place additional demand on the rear suspension.

RoadActive Suspension is a mechanical suspension support system that works with the existing rear leaf springs. It is designed to help reduce rear-end sag, improve vehicle stability and provide more controlled handling when the vehicle is carrying weight or towing.

Unlike airbags, RoadActive Suspension does not require compressors, airlines or ongoing pressure adjustments. The system operates automatically as the rear leaf springs move, providing progressive support during normal driving, towing and load carrying.
