PATROL GU - KONI RAID 50MM PRO LIFT KIT

A complete 50mm PRO lift for the Nissan Patrol GU (Y61) wagon, 1997-2016, built around KONI RAID 90 Series shocks and King Springs coils front and rear. It's set up to improve ride quality, handling and control on sealed roads, touring routes and off-road.

The KONI RAID shocks are paired with raised King Springs coils matched to your front and rear load, plus a caster correction bush kit, adjustable panhard rods, a leading arm bush kit, rear upper and lower trailing arms and a steering damper matched to your build date. See every part in the What's in the kit tab.

Why KONI RAID 90 Series shocks

• Huge 70mm body. Twin-tube, oil filled, with a large oil capacity for efficient heat dissipation.
• 42mm piston, 18mm rod. A massive 42mm PTFE-coated piston and hard chromed 18mm rod.
• Heat resistant Viton seals. Built for long, hot, rough tracks.
• Rebound adjustable and serviceable. Fine-tune rebound damping, and service the shocks rather than replace them.
• Proven in tough conditions. Proven in the Simpson Desert, on the Canning Stock Route and in the Dakar Rally.

Caster correction included

The offset caster bush kit adds about 2 degrees of caster correction after the lift, restoring steering feel and control and helping prevent the tyre wear issues that come from lifting your 4WD.

What makes the PRO kit different

The PRO kit is Northman's step up from a standard lift kit. On top of the shocks, springs and caster correction, it adds:

• Adjustable front and rear panhard rods.
• Leading arm to chassis bush kit.
• Adjustable rear upper trailing arms and rear lower trailing arms (a pair of each).
• Steering damper to suit your build date: pin/pin mount up to 02/2000, eye/eye mount from 03/2000.

The bushes and arms are supplied in SuperPro or Whiteline, and you can choose a brand preference when you build your kit. The panhard rods are Whiteline. A wheel alignment is needed after fitting.

Ride, handling and load

The KONI RAID 90 Series is built for remote touring and hard off-road use, with the oil capacity to stay consistent over long rough sections.

• Matched to your load. The springs create the lift, so choose your front load (bull bar and winch), engine and rear load when you build your kit. Getting this right gives a level stance and a comfortable ride, and stops the rear sagging.
• Accessories first. Where possible, fit permanent accessories like bars, winches, drawers and canopies before the lift kit so the suspension is matched correctly from the start.
• Professional fitting. We recommend installation by a suspension technician or mechanic, preferably with wheel alignment facilities.

Recommended upgrades (not included)

These parts aren't part of this kit and don't change its price. We recommend them for a GU Patrol, and they're sold separately:

• SuperPro TRC1215 performance leading arm kit (replaces the caster and leading arm bush kits)
• SuperPro TRC9022 billet swaybar mount saddle kit
• BOSS4PCB rear spring chassis brace kit
