Getting the right suspension setup on your LandCruiser 300 Series makes a real difference whether you're touring, towing, or tackling serious off-road terrain. Our XGS suspension range is built specifically for the 300 Series wagon, giving you a genuine upgrade path from standard height right through to a full lift kit setup.
Control Arms & Alignment
A lift kit changes your suspension geometry, and upper control arms are often needed to correct alignment angles and restore proper articulation. The TJM XGS Upper Control Arm, Fabricated Steel Pair is designed to work alongside a raised suspension setup, helping maintain correct CV joint and steering angles after a lift.
Coil Springs & Struts
Front suspension on the 300 Series typically uses a coil-over-strut setup. The XGS Remote Coil Springs, Front Raised Pair provide a raised front ride height, and pair with the XGS Remote Front Left Strut for owners replacing individual components rather than a full front end.
Rear Suspension
For rear-end load capacity, particularly on commercial or heavily loaded builds, the XGS Leaf Spring, Rear Raised 300kg adds a raised rear height with genuine extra load capacity, suited to LandCruiser Commercial variants carrying regular heavy gear.
Complete Suspension Kits
If you'd rather fit a full kit in one go rather than sourcing individual components, the XGS Roamer 100kg LBA Suspension Kit covers the 300 Series wagon from November 2021 onward, giving a balanced setup suited to touring loads.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need upper control arms with a lift kit?
In most cases, yes. Raising the suspension changes the geometry of the front end, and upper control arms help correct alignment angles that a standard control arm can't accommodate at a lifted height.
What's the difference between a full kit and individual components?
A complete kit like the XGS Roamer is matched as a balanced set for a specific vehicle and use case. Individual components (springs, struts, control arms) are better suited to owners replacing a single worn part or building a custom setup.
Will a suspension lift affect my LandCruiser's GVM?
A suspension lift on its own doesn't increase GVM. If you need additional legal payload capacity, that requires a separate GVM upgrade, which is often done alongside a suspension upgrade but is a distinct engineering process.
Can I fit these suspension kits myself?
Suspension work affects alignment, ride height and handling, so professional fitting is strongly recommended. Incorrect installation can affect vehicle safety and warranty.
Are these kits suited to towing as well as off-road use?
Yes. The XGS range is designed for dual-purpose use, giving improved load handling for towing while maintaining off-road articulation and ground clearance.
