Superior Engineering 2025 Best Sellers Guide Posted By: Superior Engineering Staff Published: 28/11/2024
Times Read: 718 Comments: 0 With 2024 rapidly coming to a close and given that we’re right on the precipice of presents season – both giving and receiving – we thought we’d better take a bit of a look back over the best sellers of the last few years. Not only will this potentially give you some ideas for what to buy a loved one or ask for yourself from Santa, but it’ll also provide a handy snapshot of what other folks are doing with their 4WDs.
You may just be starting out on your 4WD modification journey and want to know what to grab before your next camping adventure over the holidays, or perhaps you’re well down the modification path and want to take a look at what the next addition to your weaponry should be. Either way, we’re pretty sure you’ll find something on the following list that’ll make you say “huh, I need that!”
We’ve gone ahead and broken it up into best-selling categories and specific products to make finding that next mod even easier. Make sure to get in touch with our team if you have any questions or need help choosing the best product for your needs!
Best Selling Categories
GVM, GCM & BTC UPGRADES
Superior offers a huge range of GVM, GCM and BTC (Gross Vehicle Mass, Gross Combined Mass & Braked Towing Capacity) upgrades which include better load carrying capacity, increased towing capacity, better stability and overall vehicle handling.
Superior Engineering's series of GVM, GCM & BTC upgrades lead the industry in both quality and performance. Having one of our kits fitted gives you the peace of mind that your pride and joy can tackle the harshest terrain being fully loaded, towing a caravan or trailer while retaining full legality.
The comprehensive kits come with all the bracketry, brake lines and whatever else your vehicle may require for a complete installation.
GVM upgrades range from 3.3T – 4.495T and are available for a huge variety of vehicles, including GU Patrol, Toyota HiLux, Ford Ranger and RAM 1500, to just name a few!
As all states vary in their legal requirements and each of our kits is vehicle specific, as well as often requiring tailoring to your individual needs, we strongly recommend you get in touch with us to discuss your options before ordering. Find out more HERE.

COIL CONVERSION KITS
Tired of those leaf springs in the back of your ute being harsh, non-compliant and kidney-bruising over rough terrain? Our bolt-in and weld-in coil conversion kits swap out the non-flexy leaf packs by replacing them with a functional, reliable, comfortable and high-performance coil suspension system that can handle even the bumpiest terrains comfortably.
While leaf springs are typically known for providing an economical and basic suspension set-up for carrying loads, they’re severely lacking when it comes to ride quality, off-road capability and overall driver comfort. A Superior Coil Conversion Kit delivers smooth on-road handling as well as significantly improved off-road performance, largely due to increased ground clearance and wheel travel.
Coil springs are also much more suited to fine-tuning the ride height and spring rates over leaf springs. This means you’ll be able to find a coil set-up that will suit your needs perfectly while enhancing your suspension’s overall characteristics and improving traction – whether you’re a tourer carrying heavy loads or a weekend warrior with less concerns for vehicle weight. Our coil conversions can be installed as part of a GVM/GCM upgrade and are expertly designed and manufactured for the overarching purpose of delivering enhanced vehicle handling, hard-wearing off-road performance and increased stability over any terrain.
These conversions can completely transform your driving experience, so it’s extremely important to choose the right kit for your specific needs. Designed here in Brisbane, we build and test a huge amount of coil conversions for drivers like you and offer a number of conversion kits that can suit a wide variety of requirements, so get in touch with us today and discuss the options.

FULLY ENGINEERED SUSPENSION KITS
Looking for the ultimate in suspension upgrades for your ride? No matter what your goals are with your 4X4, Superior can offer both pre and post-rego engineering for full street-driven legality when installing our suspension kits in certain states.
That means you can get the most comprehensive lift kit in the country, with up to 4in of ride height increase, as well as GVM, GCM and BCT upgrades or a coil conversion incorporated. All engineered and approved for road use Australia Wide.
You can find out more about our kits HERE or get in touch with any questions.
UPPER CONTROL ARMS
When lifting independent front suspension (IFS), there are a lot of variables at play when it comes to maintaining acceptable suspension geometry. It’s important to keep things as predictable as possible to give you the confidence to tackle the rougher trails, that’s why we manufacture a large range of aftermarket upper control arms (UCAs) to keep your vehicle turning, flexing and handling as it does from factory.
Everything from Tritons to LandCruisers are catered for, so have a look through our UCA selection HERE, or get in touch if you need further help.
REAR CONTROL ARMS
Rear control arms play a pivotal role in ensuring stability and control in a solid axle suspension system. When considering such high stress parts on your vehicle you need trust in the product and brand. We sell both high tensile aluminium and steel control arms, both adjustable and fixed length, to suit whatever your needs may be.
They all come warrantied (specifics are dependent on each product) to give you peace of mind when you’re out bush pushing your 4X4 to its limits. Check our range out for yourself HERE.
RADIUS ARMS
For front solid axle 4X4s, radius arms are the go-to suspension for most manufacturers, and for good reason. They’re dependable and offer reliable performance on and off-road, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be improved. Here at Superior, we offer a wide range of replacement radius arms for solid axle Patrols, Cruisers, and Land Rovers. They’re suited for 2in to 6in lifts and will maintain correct caster angles – one of the most important considerations for a lifted solid axle 4WD – as well as provide safe and stable steering and handling, no matter the terrain. They’re also a hell of a lot stronger than any OEM radius arms.
If you’re chasing more flex than you ever thought possible, be sure to check out our Superflex and Hyperflex radius arms for a huge boost in off-road ability. You can find the whole range HERE.
MUD FLAPS & BRACKETS
Protect your vehicle and trailer from stone chips and debris with the range of Superior Engineering 4WD mud flaps and mud flap brackets. We stock vehicle-specific LandCruiser mud flaps as well as universal versions to fit a wide range of vehicles. If you need 4x4 mud flaps or ute tray mud guards to suit low or negative offset wheels, our laser-cut brackets have you covered.
Our 4X4 mud flaps offer the perfect mix of style and durability. Designed to last an age, no matter the size or use. From large mud flaps to small mud guards and even trailer mud flaps. The options are inexhaustible. Click HERE to get started.
Best Selling Products
ARB TWIN AIR COMPRESSOR
One of the best on the market, the ARB twin motor air compressor is a beast. Able to run air tools when used in conjunction with the optional tank, pumps up tyres as fast as doing it at the servo and operates at 100% duty cycle. Available both as a vehicle mounted set-up or as a portable unit, this is one accessory that will probably outlast your vehicle.
If you’re chasing maximum performance from your next compressor, check out the ARB Twin Air HERE.
TOYOTA LANDCRUISER HANDBRAKE UPGRADE KIT
If you do own or have owned a LandCruiser, then you know the handbrakes are about as reliable as a politician’s promise. Superior have come up with an innovative handbrake upgrade kit that changes the cam angle, so it pulls more cable as the handbrake lever is raised. It essentially forces the handbrake to work more efficiently, and you no longer have to worry about finding your Cruiser at the bottom of the driveway in the morning.
You can see a video of how it works and how to install it HERE, and you can buy it directly from our website HERE.
STEEL WHEEL SPACERS – 5 STUD
Wheel spacers are one of the quickest, most cost-effective and easiest ways to increase your 4X4’s track width. These 2in spacers move the tyres away from the chassis, gaining additional clearance under full articulation as well as achieving more off-road stability as your vehicle’s stance is widened out by a total of 4in.
Superior Spacers are sold as a pair and come with all the required hardware to bolt them to the hub. Find out more HERE.
SUPERIOR PREMIUM UNIVERSAL MUD FLAPS
Factory mud flaps are often one of the first casualties when driving off-road, that’s why we sell our extremely popular universal mud flap kits. These are heavy duty replacements for when one goes missing after a mud hole or steep rocky climb, or if you’ve lifted your 4X4 and no longer have legal tyre coverage.
Measuring in at an extra-large 420mm x 350mm and made from polyurethane with a white Superior Engineering logo, our mud flaps are flexible, hard-wearing and simple to install. You can find them HERE.
SUPERIOR NITRO TWIN-TUBE SHOCK ABSORBERS
Superior’s twin-tube Nitro shocks are designed with maximum reliability and longevity in mind while providing enough travel to facilitate lifts from 2in all the way up to 7in! The twin-tube design allows for increased oil capacity and efficient cooling, while both the shock’s internal and external features are built to handle the rigours of hard off-road driving anywhere in the country.
They come with a 3-year unlimited km warranty, and are available HERE.
SUPERIOR ADJUSTABLE 2.0 MONOTUBE REMOTE RESERVOIR SHOCK ABSORBERS
Built with only high-quality parts, these fully rebuildable shocks feature remote reservoirs for significantly increased amounts of oil capacity and cooling ability. They also enable fine tuning for ride comfort via the 8-stage compression adjuster on the shock’s external reservoir so you can dial in your preferred ride characteristics to suit your loads.
With a 3-year unlimited km warranty and available in a range of lengths to suit suspension lifts from 2in all the way up to 7in of ride height increase, these shocks will take your suspension to the next level. Check them out for yourself HERE.
