Tough Dog GWM P-Series (2019+) Complete 35–40mm Suspension Lift Kit
The Tough Dog GWM P-Series (2019+) Suspension Kit is the ultimate solution for owners looking to refine the handling and capability of this popular bakkie. While the P-Series offers impressive value, payload capacity, and technology, the factory suspension can feel under-damped when tackling rough terrain or carrying heavy loads — resulting in a “wallowy”, unsettled ride that undermines the vehicle’s otherwise strong platform. This Tough Dog kit eliminates that feeling, providing a significant increase in control, improved ground clearance, and the stability needed for South African off-road conditions.
Featuring 41mm Bore Foam Cell Shock technology, this system delivers superior heat dissipation to keep your ride composed and consistent on long, corrugated dirt roads, farm tracks, and high-speed gravel highways.
Front Springs: High-tensile Coil Springs — available for No Bar, Steel Bullbar, or Winch setups
Rear Springs: Multi-leaf Spring Packs — Comfort or Medium Load options
High-tensile Steel U-Bolts
Polyurethane Shackle Bush Kit
Approx. Shipping Weight: 85kg – 100kg (dependent on leaf spring selection)
Package Dimensions (L×W×H): 1.2m × 0.5m × 0.4m
SKU: TD-GWMP-19-COMPLETE (configuration specific)
🚗 Why Upgrade Your GWM P-Series?
The P-Series is a heavy, high-payload bakkie with a strong platform — but the factory suspension is not calibrated for the demands of serious overlanding, heavy accessory loads, or sustained off-road use. Tough Dog’s progressive spring rates ensure the bakkie remains level when loaded for a camping trip, while the upgraded shocks provide the high-speed stability and damping control the P-Series deserves. This kit is a must-have for P-Series owners who use their vehicle for more than just the daily commute.
✅ 35–40mm lift — improved ground clearance for gravel roads, farm tracks, and off-road trails
✅ Eliminates wallowy feel — firmer, more controlled damping transforms the factory under-damped ride
✅ Remains level under load — progressive spring rates handle camping gear, canopies, and towing loads
✅ High-speed stability — upgraded shocks keep the P-Series composed on corrugated gravel highways
✅ Foam Cell shock technology — superior heat dissipation for fade-free performance on extended drives
✅ Load-rated spring options — Comfort or Medium Load rear leaf springs to match your specific setup
✅ Optional 9-stage adjustable shocks — ideal for P-Series owners who switch between empty daily driving and fully laden touring
