Lift height compliance: Suspension lifts of this size may exceed your state's allowable limit without engineering certification. Check your state's light vehicle modification rules (VSB14/NCOP) before fitting.
Choose your King Springs front coil rate based on the constant weight sitting on the front axle — a steel bull bar, winch and driving lights all add load that a standard-rate coil wasn't designed for. Common front accessories affecting spring selection include steel bull bars, electric winches, aftermarket driving light bars and long-range fuel tanks mounted forward of the axle. If your Hilux N80 carries this gear daily, tell our team the combined weight so we can confirm the correct coil rate for level, settled ride height.
This kit is best fitted by a professional workshop or an experienced DIY installer with the correct spring compressors and torque specs for the N80 strut assembly. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting to bring camber, caster and toe back within factory tolerance at the new ride height. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for the King Springs coils to settle and the Bilstein shocks to reach full working feel. For best geometry at 2"-3" of front lift, pair this kit with our control arm upgrades to correct CV joint angles.
Bilstein has supplied monotube shock technology to OEM manufacturers and aftermarket 4WD platforms for decades, and the B6 range is tuned specifically for lifted touring and load-carrying applications. Every kit is backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty, giving tradespeople and tourers a shock they can rely on across daily commuting and corrugated tracks. View the full Bilstein range to compare shock options for your rear axle or other vehicles in the fleet.
This kit suits Hilux N80 owners running a front bull bar and winch who need the coil rate to match that added weight, along with grey nomads and weekend tourers wanting extra front clearance for tracks and beach access. Tradespeople carrying canopy and tool storage weight often pair this front kit with a rear airbag suspension upgrade to keep the rear level under load. If you're chasing a factory-comfort ride with genuine off-road ability, this B6 and King Springs combination is built for that daily-driver-to-tourer balance.

Yes — this kit is built specifically for the Toyota Hilux N80 produced from 2015 onwards, covering Workmate, SR, SR5, Rogue and Rugged X variants across 2.4L, 2.8L diesel and 2.7L/4.0L petrol engines. Because the King Springs coil rate and Bilstein B6 valving are matched to this chassis, it isn't a universal fit for earlier Hilux generations like the N70. If you're unsure of your exact build date or variant, send us your rego or VIN and our fitment team will confirm compatibility before you order.
This kit raises the front of the Hilux N80 by 2" to 3", achieved through Bilstein B6 monotube shocks matched to King Springs raised front coils. The exact height within that range depends on the coil rate selected and the weight sitting on the front axle from accessories like a bull bar or winch. Rear height isn't affected, since this is a front-only kit — talk to us about a rear leaf spring or shock upgrade if you want a matched stance.
Please note that all assembled struts are dispatched at a height based on our experience and the manufacturer’s specifications for the advertised lift. Coil springs and leaf springs are also manufactured according to the advertised height and constant-load rating. Actual vehicle height may vary depending on the vehicle and the weight of fitted accessories. Further adjustment may therefore be required after installation. The installer may use coil spacers or adjust the struts at their discretion to achieve the desired height. We are not responsible for vehicle-specific height variations or any additional adjustments required after installation.
The kit includes 2 x Bilstein B6 monotube front shock absorbers and 2 x King Springs 2"-3" raised front coil springs, along with front bump stop spacers, upper spring seats where applicable, and mounting hardware. Rear leaf springs and rear shocks are sold separately, as are upper control arms. Full fitting instructions are supplied with the kit for your installer.
This is a front lift kit, so it improves front load response for bull bars and winches rather than towball capacity, which is governed by your rear leaf springs and chassis rating. For towing, we'd recommend pairing this front kit with a rear leaf spring upgrade or airbag suspension to keep the rear settled under towball weight. Speak to our team about a front-and-rear package matched to your tow setup.
At 2"-3" of front lift on the N80, we recommend upgraded upper control arms to correct CV joint operating angles and restore proper camber and caster range. Standard control arms can run out of adjustment at this height, which shortens CV joint life and can limit alignment options. Our control arm range is designed to work alongside this exact lift height.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this kit. Raising the front ride height changes camber, caster and toe outside factory tolerance, and correct alignment protects tyre wear and steering feel. Have this done immediately after fitting and again after the 500km bedding-in period once the King Springs coils have settled.
Yes, King Springs offers front coil rate options to suit different constant accessory loads on the N80, such as a steel bull bar, winch and driving lights. Tell our team the combined weight of your front-mounted accessories and we'll confirm the coil rate that keeps your ride height level rather than sagging under that load. Getting the rate right also affects how the B6 shocks control the vehicle, since shock valving and spring rate work together.
The added front height combined with correct wheel alignment typically opens up clearance for a larger tyre than standard, but the exact size that clears depends on your wheel offset, rim width and whether you're also running a rear lift. We recommend confirming your specific wheel and tyre combination with our fitment team before purchasing tyres, so there's no rubbing at full steering lock or suspension compression.
The Bilstein B6 shocks are covered by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty, and King Springs coils carry their own manufacturer warranty against manufacturing defects. Keep your invoice from 4WD Suspension as proof of purchase for any warranty claim. Our team can talk you through the warranty terms and process before you buy.
Yes, the Bilstein B6 monotube design is tuned to retain a factory-like ride quality at highway speed, which is why it suits Hilux N80 owners using their ute for daily commuting as well as touring and work. The digressive piston valving controls body movement without the harsh, jittery feel some off-road-only shocks introduce on sealed roads. Combined with a correctly matched King Springs coil rate, most owners run this kit as their everyday setup.
