Defender & Perentie Suspension Kits

Not sure which suspension setup is right for your Defender, Discovery or Range Rover?

Every vehicle is different. Accessories, permanent weight, towing requirements, intended use, long travel setups, sway bars and existing suspension components all affect which springs, shocks and supporting components will work properly, and which parts need addressing from serious remote or technical offroad use

Free 15-minute initial call

We’re happy to provide an initial suspension and vehicle-setup phone call of up to 15 minutes at no charge.

This is generally enough to:

• Discuss your main requirements
• Answer basic product and compatibility questions
• Recommend a suitable starting point
• Determine whether you need a standard kit or even one of our own more complex kits listed on our website will suit... or if more detailed planning will be needed

Free calls must be booked in advance, and we’ll need your vehicle information beforehand so the available time can be used effectively.

Custom-tuned remote reservoir shocks for your Land Rover

The KINGPIN Basic Remote Resi Shock Kit brings together four Superior Engineering remote reservoir shocks and our KINGPIN mounting components for Land Rovers running standard height through to 2-inch lift. We custom tune the shocks to suit your vehicle, its load and how you use it.

This is a shock and mounting kit. Coils and a front driveshaft are optional additions, not part of the base kit.

Vehicle fitment

• Discovery 1 (D1)
• Range Rover Classic (RRC)
• Perentie 4x4
• Defender D90, D110 and D130, including Td5 and Puma

Tell us your model, year, engine, current ride height, front accessories and usual rear load so we can confirm the correct setup. Vehicle-specific mounting requirements apply; the Defender/Perentie rear reservoir plates are not a direct-fit solution for D1/RRC.

What is included?

• 4 × Superior Engineering custom-valved remote reservoir shocks — two front and two rear, with 8-stage external compression adjustment. Fully rebuildable, serviceable and tunable. KINGPIN tuning includes the shim stacks and shock piston modifications to suit the application.
• 1 pair of KINGPIN front shock turrets, without dislocation cones — height matched to the shocks supplied.
• 1 pair of KINGPIN front shock reservoir mounting brackets — designed to mount the reservoirs to the front face of our turrets. Two small mounting holes require drilling.
• 1 pair of KINGPIN rear pin-conversion shock mounts — converts the rear upper mounting to accept the pin-to-pin shocks.
• KINGPIN rear shock reservoir mounting plates for Defender/Perentie applications. Puma fitment uses the existing threaded bosses; pre-Puma/Perentie installations require M10 rivnuts/nutserts. These plates do not fit Discovery 1 and are excluded from the D1 kit. Confirm the rear reservoir mounting arrangement with KINGPIN before installation. RRC fitment must be confirmed separately.
• KINGPIN fuel filter relocation bracket and fitting kit included only with Td5 and Puma/TDCi Defender kits to clear the rear pin-conversion mounts. Not required or included for Discovery 1, RRC, Perentie or pre-Td5 Defenders, including 300Tdi.

No extended brake lines or spring retainers required

The shock lengths used in this kit do not require extended brake lines, spring retainers or dislocation cones. This is a deliberately matched shock-and-mount setup for 0–2-inch lift, rather than a long-travel conversion requiring those extra components.

Optional coils — match the vehicle's load

Using the coil selector: choose “No coils” to retain your existing springs, or select a package combining your front accessories and rear load. Coil packages add a front pair and a rear pair to the kit. Final spring specification is matched to your vehicle and load before supply. The listed packages use standard front coils; custom 165lb front coils can be arranged separately.

Puma owners: selecting coils does not automatically add the required front multi-position bumpstop spacers. Please contact KINGPIN to arrange these before fitting 2-inch coils. A front MEGA shaft is selected separately, unless already fitted.

Keep your existing suitable coils, or add front and rear coils matched to your setup. Front load choices are no bar or winch; bull bar only; or bull bar and winch.

Rear load choices depend on the vehicle. Choose for the weight normally carried, including permanent accessories.

For D110/D130 and suitable Perentie applications, our rear choices include the custom 290lb no-load coils, 320lb coils for up to 250kg, 400lb coils for 350kg constant load and 450lb coils for 500kg constant load. D90/D1/RRC require their own vehicle-appropriate coils; these larger-diameter rear coils are not interchangeable. Final spring selection and achieved ride height depend on the vehicle and actual axle loads.

D90 rear coil choices

• C51-015 — linear rate, up to 50kg constant load, approximately 45mm lift.
• C51-027V — variable rate, 100–220kg constant load, approximately 50mm lift.

Discovery 1 rear coil choices

• C51-015 — linear rate, approximately 35mm lift.
• C51-022 — linear rate, up to 50kg constant load, approximately 50mm lift.
• C51-027V — variable rate, 100–220kg constant load, approximately 50mm lift.
• C51-132 — linear rate, 350–500kg constant load, approximately 50mm lift.
• C51-147 — linear rate, 500–600kg constant load, approximately 50mm lift.

Lift figures are guides only. D90 and D1 coil selections use their own load ratings; the D110/D130 ratings should not be used for these models.

Important: Puma with 2-inch coils

All Puma Defenders lifted with 2-inch coils require a front double cardan driveshaft — our MEGA EXTREME Wide Angle HD front shaft — and KINGPIN front multi-position bumpstop spacers. This also applies if you retain existing 2-inch coils. These items are additional to the base kit unless already fitted.

Optional front driveshaft

A vehicle-appropriate MEGA HD front shaft can be added. Perentie uses our dedicated Perentie MEGA HD wide-angle front shaft. Shaft selection depends on the model, engine and flange configuration; confirm RRC fitment with us.

Built around your setup

We confirm vehicle details and tuning before supply. Allow approximately one week for custom shock valving when the required shocks are in stock.

Perentie brake-line fitment: Perentie 4x4 uses the Defender 3-piece brake-line kit. Brake lines are not included in this Basic shock and mounting kit.

KINGPIN Tough Tourer Suspension Kit

A comprehensive suspension and steering upgrade for Defender, Perentie 4x4, Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic owners who want touring strength, controlled articulation and predictable behaviour on and off road.

This is a matched long-travel system. We consider the shocks, spring rates, mounting heights, spring retention, steering geometry and driveshaft clearance together, then tailor the setup to your vehicle and how you use it.

What makes the KINGPIN setup different?

• Shocks tuned in-house for your vehicle. Every remote reservoir shock is disassembled and custom tuned by KINGPIN to suit your application and vehicle weight.
• Driveshaft clearance is part of the setup. Increased articulation can cause a factory shaft to bind. We assess shaft travel and joint angles rather than ignoring the effects of the extra suspension movement.
• Geometry matters. We can supply solutions for steering caster and pinion angles affected by a lift, with the aim of restoring appropriate geometry. Ask us about the options for your vehicle.
• Spring rates selected for control as well as travel. In most applications we favour correctly rated linear coils. With rear spring retention, this helps introduce rear roll stiffness, encourages the front suspension to work—particularly with factory front radius arms—and supports a more stable, predictable setup, including off-camber driving. Road use and the terrain you drive influence the recommendation; a flexible or variable-rate coil can be the better choice for some applications.

What is included?

• Four Superior Engineering 2.0 remote reservoir monotube shocks with 11.5-inch stroke, custom valved to your vehicle: two front and two rear.
• KINGPIN front shock turrets with inbuilt dislocation cones, with mounting height matched to the shocks supplied.
• KINGPIN rear pin-conversion shock mounts, designed to accommodate the 11.5-inch shocks without extended rear bumpstops on the matched Defender setup. We confirm the mounting and bumpstop arrangement for other vehicles.
• KINGPIN HD rear spring retainer system, retaining the coils at the top and bottom with high-tensile hardware. The set is matched to the vehicle; tell us if helper airbags are fitted or planned.
• KINGPIN HD front lower spring retainers.
• KINGPIN front shock reservoir mounting brackets for neat reservoir mounting at the turrets.
• KINGPIN 4140 solid chromoly track rod and drag link, matched to your vehicle.
• LEMFÖRDER tie-rod ends—three for the standard Defender arrangement and four for Discovery 1.
• HEL Performance custom braided steel brake lines, with the vehicle-appropriate kit selected below.
• Tough Dog adjustable steering damper.
• Tough Dog heavy-duty adjustable panhard rod, matched to your vehicle, to centre the front axle after a lift. Supply the VIN for a 2002 Defender so we can confirm the correct mounting-bolt configuration.
• Gwyn Lewis heavy-duty cranked rear trailing arms, powder coated black and supplied with axle-end bushes and chassis-end nuts.
• SuperPro rear trailing-arm chassis-end bushes.
• KINGPIN fuel filter relocation bracket and fitting kit for Td5 and Puma/TDCi Defenders. This bracket is not required for pre-Td5 Defenders, including 300Tdi, Perentie, D1 or RRC.

Choose your vehicle, coils and load

Select your vehicle, choose whether to retain suitable existing coils or add front and rear coils, then select front accessories, usual rear load, front shaft and brake-line kit. Only the relevant coil choices are shown for the selected vehicle, and the displayed price updates with your selections.

Front accessory choices are no bar or winch, bull bar only, or bull bar and winch. Rear coil choices use the vehicle's own spring sizes and load ratings. D110/D130 and suitable Perentie applications include custom 290lb no-load coils and the 250kg, 350kg and 500kg load choices. D90 and D1 have their own coil options. We confirm spring rate, free length, loaded height and compatibility with the shock travel before supply. RRC coils and shaft fitment require confirmation.

Choose your HEL brake-line kit

• Defender / Perentie / County 3-piece kit
• Defender 4-piece kit for ABS brakes
• Discovery 1 3-piece kit

The selector shows the relevant kits for your vehicle. Confirm the brake-line arrangement, including ABS fitment, before ordering. HEL lines are made to KINGPIN specifications, with length and colour confirmed for your setup. Stocked colours are carbon or black; other colours can be arranged. RRC brake-line fitment requires confirmation.

Front driveshaft and suspension clearance

We recommend a suitable wide-angle front shaft with this long-travel kit. A factory shaft may be usable temporarily in some setups, but it must be checked for binding throughout the suspension's operating range. Contact us to confirm the correct shaft for your engine, transfer case and suspension geometry.

Puma Defenders fitted with 2-inch coils require a front double cardan wide-angle shaft and KINGPIN front multi-position bumpstop spacers. This includes vehicles retaining existing 2-inch coils. Select the MEGA front shaft if required; the bumpstop spacers are arranged separately.

Optional front bumpstop and turret setup

Where appropriate, we can add KINGPIN front bumpstop extensions and lower the turret mounting height to transfer some available uptravel into additional downtravel. A 25mm change is one setup option.

We assess this against your use and loaded spring height. High-speed off-road driving, beach work, aggressive driving and front spring loaded heights below 300mm need particular consideration; preserving compression travel can be more important than chasing extra droop. This is a matched setup decision, not a universal add-on.

Important swaybar compatibility

The standard swaybars cannot be retained with this kit's long-travel configuration. Where a rear swaybar is wanted, use the KINGPIN rear off-road swaybar conversion kit and confirm the setup with us.

Custom and partial kits

Already have suitable heavy-duty parts? We can work around them and supply a partial or tailored package. The steering damper and adjustable panhard rod are included in the standard kit but can be removed by arrangement where they are not required. We can also discuss caster correction, pinion-angle solutions, helper-airbag-compatible rear retainers and other vehicle-specific requirements.

Contact us by phone or through the contact form with your vehicle details, existing components, usual load and intended use. We can prepare a tailored proposal with a shipping estimate and confirm the final component selection and shock tuning before supply.

Perentie 4x4 brake lines: The Defender 3-piece HEL brake-line kit is supplied for Perentie. The Defender 4-piece ABS kit does not apply to Perentie.

Perentie front driveshaft option: Selecting a front shaft for Perentie supplies our dedicated Perentie MEGA HD wide-angle double cardan front shaft, made to the correct Perentie length.

KINGPIN Outback Tourer Suspension Kit

A matched suspension and steering package for a dedicated touring Land Rover, with custom-tuned remote reservoir shocks, heavy-duty steering rods and cranked rear trailing arms. Designed for standard height through to 2-inch lift, with shock-mount heights matched to the shocks supplied.

What is included?

• Four Superior Engineering 2.0 remote reservoir shocks — front and rear, with 8.5-inch stroke and KINGPIN custom valving to suit your vehicle, load and use.
• KINGPIN front shock turrets — without dislocation cones, height matched to the shocks.
• KINGPIN rear pin-to-pin conversion shock mounts. This configuration also allows a compatible 80/100 Series LandCruiser front shock to be sourced as an emergency replacement when remote touring.
• KINGPIN front reservoir mounting brackets — mounts the reservoirs to the front face of our turrets; two small mounting holes require drilling.
• KINGPIN rear reservoir mounting plates for Defender/Perentie. Puma uses the existing threaded bosses; pre-Puma/Perentie fitment requires M10 rivnuts/nutserts. These plates are excluded from D1 kits. RRC reservoir mounting requires confirmation.
• Gwyn Lewis heavy-duty cranked rear trailing arms — pair, powder coated black, with axle-end bushes and new chassis-end nuts. Offset axle-end construction provides clearance at suspension dropout. Older RRC vehicles may require compatible chassis bushes.
• KINGPIN solid chromoly track rod and drag link, matched to the vehicle.
• LEMFÖRDER tie-rod ends — three for the standard Defender setup, four for D1.
• HEL Performance custom braided steel brake-line kit — choose the vehicle-appropriate kit in the selector.
• Tough Dog adjustable steering damper. Contact us if you wish to arrange a kit without this component.
• KINGPIN fuel filter relocation bracket and fitting kit included only for Td5 and Puma/TDCi Defenders. Not required for D1, RRC, Perentie or pre-Td5 Defenders, including 300Tdi.

Choose your setup

Select your vehicle, retain your existing suitable coils or add front and rear coils, then choose your front accessories, usual rear load, front shaft and brake-line kit. The displayed price updates with your selections.

Front accessory choices are no bar or winch, bull bar only, or bull bar and winch. Rear coil choices are specific to the vehicle. D110/D130 and suitable Perentie applications include custom 290lb no-load coils and the 250kg, 350kg and 500kg load options. D90 and D1 use their own coil sizes and load ratings. We confirm final spring specification and tuning before supply. RRC coils and shaft fitment require confirmation.

HEL brake-line choices

• Defender / Perentie / County 3-piece kit
• Defender 4-piece kit
• Discovery 1 3-piece kit

The selector shows the relevant kits for the selected vehicle. The Defender 4-piece kit suits the ABS applications requiring four lines; select the kit that matches your vehicle's brake-line arrangement. RRC brake-line fitment must be confirmed with KINGPIN.

HEL lines can be supplied from standard length through to extended lengths and in a choice of colours. Stocked colours are carbon or black. We confirm the appropriate length and colour with you before supply.

Important: Puma with 2-inch coils

Puma Defenders fitted with 2-inch coils require a front double cardan wide-angle shaft and KINGPIN front multi-position bumpstop spacers. This applies to existing 2-inch coils as well as new coils selected with the kit. Select a MEGA front shaft if required; bumpstop spacers are arranged separately.

Built around your Land Rover

Please provide the model, year, engine, current ride height, front accessories and usual rear load. We confirm vehicle details, component fitment and shock tuning before supply. Caster correction can also be arranged for lifted vehicles. For other changes, individual components or a shipping estimate, contact us for a tailored quote.

Perentie 4x4 brake lines: The Defender 3-piece HEL brake-line kit is supplied for Perentie. The Defender 4-piece ABS kit does not apply to Perentie.

Perentie front driveshaft option: Selecting a front shaft for Perentie supplies our dedicated Perentie MEGA HD wide-angle double cardan front shaft, made to the correct Perentie length.

KINGPIN Weekend Warrior Suspension Kit

A matched long-travel suspension and steering package for Defender D90, D110, D130 and Perentie 4x4, built around Superior Engineering Superflex radius arms, custom-tuned remote reservoir shocks and KINGPIN mounting hardware.

The Weekend Warrior takes the Tough Tourer concept further with longer front shocks and matching taller front turrets, Superflex radius arms and the KINGPIN 7075 alloy panhard. It is aimed at serious off-road use, with spring length, shock travel, shaft clearance and geometry considered together.

Required coils and front driveshaft

• Front coils must be KINGPIN custom 165lb coils or suitable FlexyCoils. Their free length is essential to keep the front coil within the turret's dislocation cone at full articulation. Ordinary shorter coils are not a substitute for this setup.
• D90 uses the custom 165lb front coils only. Expect approximately 2.5 inches of front lift, not 2 inches; actual height depends on vehicle weight. FlexyCoils are not offered for D90.
• 290lb rear coils are our recommended starting point for D110/D130 and Perentie vehicles carrying little or no extra rear load. Select a rate appropriate to the usual load; D90 requires its own rear coil size and specification.
• A wide-angle double cardan MEGA front shaft is mandatory with this kit and is included in every configuration. Perentie receives the dedicated Perentie-length MEGA HD wide-angle shaft. Defender receives the vehicle-matched MEGA double cardan front shaft.

If retaining existing coils, they must meet these requirements. We confirm coil free length, loaded height, shock size, tuning and full-travel clearances before supply. FlexyCoil choices below are for D110/D130.

What is included?

• Superior Engineering Superflex radius arms, supplied as a pair with the bushes, rear washers and fitting hardware provided with the arm kit. Their design improves front articulation and corrects caster for the intended setup.
• Four Superior Engineering 2.0 remote reservoir monotube shocks: 11.5-inch stroke at the rear and a matched 12–13-inch front shock specification, discussed with you before supply. Every shock is disassembled and custom tuned in-house by KINGPIN for the vehicle and its weight, including our piston and shim-stack modifications.
• KINGPIN front shock turrets with inbuilt dislocation cones, with height matched specifically to the longer front shocks supplied.
• KINGPIN rear pin-conversion shock mounts, matched to the 11.5-inch rear shocks. The matched setup accommodates these shocks without extended rear bumpstops.
• KINGPIN 25mm front bumpstop spacers, subject to the final travel and loaded-height setup described below.
• KINGPIN HD rear spring retainer system, retaining the rear coils at the top and bottom, with vehicle-matched hardware. Tell us if helper airbags are fitted or planned.
• KINGPIN HD front lower spring retainers and front shock reservoir mounting brackets.
• KINGPIN solid chromoly track rod and drag link, with three LEMFÖRDER tie-rod ends.
• HEL Performance custom braided steel brake lines: Defender 3-piece or Defender 4-piece for ABS brakes, selected to suit the vehicle. Perentie always uses the Defender 3-piece kit. Length and colour are confirmed for the final setup.
• Tough Dog adjustable steering damper. It may not fit with a steering guard; contact us to arrange a suitable alternative where required.
• KINGPIN 1.5-inch solid 7075-T6 alloy adjustable panhard, anodised black, with a chromoly Heim joint and stainless misalignment spacers at one end and a SuperPro bush at the chassis end. Choose the correct 14mm or 16mm bush sleeve. Supply the VIN if unsure, particularly for a 2002 Defender. This panhard is intended for serious off-road use rather than a conventional touring setup.
• Gwyn Lewis HD cranked rear trailing arms, supplied with axle-end bushes and chassis-end nuts, plus SuperPro chassis-end trailing-arm bushes.
• Vehicle-matched MEGA wide-angle double cardan front shaft, included as a required part of the package.
• KINGPIN fuel filter relocation bracket and fitting kit for Td5 and Puma/TDCi Defenders. It is not required or included for pre-Td5 Defenders, including 300Tdi, or Perentie.

Choose your coils and brake-line kit

Select the vehicle, required front coil type, rear coil/load choice, brake-line kit and panhard sleeve. Each coil choice is a pair. You can retain suitable existing coils, add just the required front coils, or select front and rear pairs. The displayed total updates to match your choices; the required MEGA front shaft is included throughout.

Our custom front coils are 165lb linear-rate coils with a 460mm free height. On a D110 with a bull bar and synthetic-rope winch, the listed reference setup gives approximately 310mm loaded height at approximately 1,280kg front axle weight. These figures are a guide, not a guaranteed height for every vehicle. D90's expected front lift is approximately 2.5 inches.

FlexyCoils are the Superior Superflex taper-wound progressive coils linked in our separate spring listings. Front and rear FlexyCoil pairs are available for D110/D130. The 290lb rear option remains our recommendation for a lightly loaded off-road setup; rear rate must still suit the weight normally carried.

Perentie shaft clearance

Some Perentie installations require the front crossmember to be notched to provide clearance for the front shaft as it drops during articulation. The dedicated Perentie MEGA shaft is still mandatory and included. Shaft, crossmember and surrounding clearances must be checked through the full suspension travel as part of the matched installation.

Front travel, turret height and bumpstops

Longer front shocks need matching turrets. Depending on the turret height and engine-bay arrangement, hoses may need to be moved, and some installations require relocation of a header tank or airbox. Discuss these constraints with us before ordering.

Front bumpstop spacing and turret height determine how the available travel is divided between compression and droop. For high-speed off-road use, beach work, aggressive driving, or front loaded spring heights below 300mm, we may revise or remove the front spacers to preserve compression travel. Any change is agreed as part of the tailored setup.

Earlier vehicles with pre-1993 narrow radius-arm mounts may require modification to the axle's radius-arm brackets to fit the Superflex arms. Contact us to confirm the vehicle's bracket arrangement.

Swaybar compatibility

Factory swaybars cannot be retained with this kit's long-travel configuration. Where a rear swaybar is required, discuss the KINGPIN rear off-road swaybar conversion kit with us.

Tailored and partial packages

Already have suitable heavy-duty components? We can work around them and prepare a partial package. The steering damper and panhard can be omitted by arrangement where you already have suitable parts. The correct front coils and a suitable MEGA wide-angle double cardan shaft remain mandatory requirements.

Contact us with your vehicle details, existing components, usual load and intended use. We will confirm the shock specification, tuning, coil selection and mounting setup, then provide any tailored proposal and shipping estimate required. Worldwide shipping is available, with kit freight quoted to suit the destination.

KINGPIN Beast Mode Suspension Kit - RADFLO

High-end long-travel suspension package for Defender 90, 110 and 130.

Beast Mode is our serious off-road RADFLO package for customers chasing maximum suspension travel, control and strength rather than a mild touring upgrade. The kit combines custom-valved remote reservoir shocks, corrected mounting hardware, heavy-duty steering and long-arm components into one matched package.

Complete kit includes

• Superior Engineering Superflex radius arms
• Custom-valved RADFLO 2.0 remote reservoir shocks — 14-inch stroke front and 12-inch stroke rear, with external compression adjusters
• KINGPIN front shock turrets matched to the supplied front shocks rather than using a generic turret height
• KINGPIN rear shock mounts matched to the 12-inch rear RADFLO shocks
• KINGPIN 25mm front bumpstop spacers where required for the chosen setup
• KINGPIN HD rear spring retainer system retaining the rear coils top and bottom
• KINGPIN front lower spring retainers
• KINGPIN solid chromoly track rod
• KINGPIN solid chromoly drag link
• Discovery 1 pitman arm
• KINGPIN steering damper bracket to suit the RADFLO steering damper
• LEMFÖRDER tie-rod ends
• HEL Performance custom braided brake lines
• RADFLO 2.0 rebuildable steering damper
• Solid 7075 panhard rod with SuperPro bush and heim-joint arrangement
• KINGPIN / Superior long-arm kit using Superior Patrol long arms with KINGPIN mounting hardware

Vehicle-specific considerations

Final setup depends on vehicle model, spring height, intended use, front accessory weight and desired up-travel versus droop. We confirm these details before supply.

• Td5 and Puma Defenders require the appropriate fuel-filter relocation arrangement.
• ABS vehicles require the appropriate four-line brake hose configuration.
• Spring selection is not one-size-fits-all. We can specify suitable coils to match the vehicle and load.
• Some high-travel front setups may require hoses, header tanks or airbox components to be repositioned depending on turret height and engine-bay layout.
• For aggressive or higher-speed off-road use, front bumpstop spacing may need to be altered to prioritise up-travel.

Front propshaft

A heavy-duty front double-cardan shaft is strongly recommended with this level of travel. We can supply a vehicle-matched KINGPIN MEGA front shaft. If the front swaybar is retained, ensure the correct swaybar spacer arrangement is used for shaft clearance.

Fabrication requirement

The long-arm portion of this package requires advanced fabrication and welding skills. This is not a basic bolt-on suspension kit. If you are unsure whether the complete Beast Mode package is appropriate for your build, contact us before ordering.

Custom packages available

You do not need to buy the complete kit if you already have suitable components. We can build a partial package around your existing hardware and your intended use, then quote the remaining components and freight.

Australia-wide freight: complete kits require a manual freight quote due to the size and weight of the package.
