Tough Dog Suzuki Jimny (2005–2019) Complete 40mm Suspension Lift Kit

The Tough Dog Suzuki Jimny Gen 3 (2005–2019) 40mm Lift Kit is the ultimate “fit and forget” suspension upgrade for owners who demand more from their legendary off-roader. Engineered specifically for the Gen 3 chassis and weight distribution, this kit eliminates the factory suspension’s “wallowy” ride and tendency to bottom out under load — delivering a firmer, more controlled experience both on corrugated gravel roads and in daily city driving.

Featuring 41mm Bore Foam Cell Shock technology, microcellular foam prevents oil cavitation so your suspension never “fades” or loses performance on long, punishing drives. Whether you’re loaded with camping gear or pushing through technical terrain, this kit keeps you in control.

🚗 Why Upgrade Your Gen 3 Jimny?

The Gen 3 Jimny is legendary for its off-road capability — but the factory springs are notoriously soft. The Tough Dog kit addresses this directly by improving high-speed stability and increasing your vehicle’s effective Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) capacity, so you can carry camping gear, recovery equipment, or a full load without the rear sagging or the ride becoming unpredictable.

  • ✅ Eliminates factory “wallowy” ride feel
  • ✅ Prevents bottoming out under load
  • ✅ Improved high-speed stability on gravel and corrugated roads
  • ✅ Increased GVM capacity for overlanding and load-carrying
  • ✅ Foam Cell technology prevents shock fade on extended drives
  • ✅ Bolt-on fitment designed for the Gen 3 chassis

🛡️ Warranty & Fitment Requirements

This kit includes a 4-Year / Unlimited Kilometre Recreational Warranty — valid only when installed by a qualified professional.

  • Activate Your Warranty: Fitment must be completed at our Advanced 4x4 Branch in Strand, an authorised fitment centre, or any RMI-accredited workshop
  • Price Excludes Fitment: Contact us to book your installation and keep your warranty active
  • Post-Fitment Recommendation: A wheel alignment and bolt retorque after the first 500km–1,000km is strongly recommended for long-term performance and safety
