The Bilstein B6 Offroad Front Lift Kit delivers a 2" front lift for the Toyota Prado 90 Series (1996-2002), pairing monotube B6 Offroad shock absorbers with King Springs 2" raised front coil springs rated to carry constant accessory loads like bull bars and winches. This front-specific kit increases ground clearance and front approach angle without softening factory ride quality, and works alongside our coil spring range if you're building a full front-and-rear setup. Backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty, dispatched from Australian stock, with fitment support from our suspension team.

Choose your front spring rate based on the accessories you run permanently, not just what's fitted the day you order. A steel bull bar, winch, driving lights and bash plates all add constant weight to the front axle, so a constant-load rated front coil spring keeps the 2" lift height under that load instead of sagging back toward standard. If you're running a lighter alloy bar with no winch, a standard-rated raised spring may be enough — our team can help you match the right option to your setup.
This kit should be fitted by an experienced 4WD suspension installer or a competent DIY mechanic with the correct spring compressors and torque specs. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting, as caster and camber angles change with the 2" front lift. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for the new shocks and springs to settle before fine-tuning tyre pressures or accessory loads. For correct front-end geometry at ride height, pair this kit with upgraded control arms.
Bilstein has built monotube shock absorbers for decades and the B6 Offroad range is tuned specifically for lifted 4WDs carrying touring gear. Our stock is genuine Bilstein product backed by the manufacturer's warranty, and we test fitment data against real Prado 90 Series specs before it goes on our site. Tradespeople and tourers running bull bars, canopies and winches choose Bilstein for shocks that hold their valving characteristics under sustained load — view the full Bilstein range.
This kit suits Prado 90 Series owners fitting a bull bar and winch who need the front end to sit level rather than sag, and tourers wanting extra front clearance for corrugated tracks and creek crossings. If you're carrying heavier constant loads such as a drawer system plus bar work and need load-levelling rather than a fixed spring rate, also look at our airbag suspension options for the rear.
This 2" front lift kit is in stock in Australia and ready for fast dispatch, with our team on hand to confirm fitment before you order. Browse our full lift kit range to build a matched front-and-rear setup for your Prado.

Yes, this Bilstein 2" Front Lift Kit is designed specifically for the Toyota Prado 90 Series built between 1996 and 2002, covering both the 3.4L V6 petrol (5VZ-FE) and 3.0L turbo diesel (1KZ-TE) variants. If you're unsure of your exact build date or engine code, our fitment team can confirm compatibility before you order. You can also check compatible parts using our Prado parts finder tool.
This kit provides a 2" front lift using King Springs raised front coil springs matched to Bilstein B6 Offroad shock absorbers. It is a front-specific kit, so it does not raise the rear of the vehicle. If you want a matched front-and-rear lift, pair it with a compatible rear coil spring and shock combination from our range.
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 Offroad front shock absorbers, 2 x King Springs 2" raised front coil springs, front shock mount bushes, spring isolator pads and fitting hardware. Fitting instructions are supplied. Rear shocks, rear springs and control arms are sold separately.
This kit is a front lift kit, so its main role is supporting front-end weight from bull bars, winches and bash plates rather than towing directly, since tow ball weight loads the rear axle. If you tow regularly, look at rear leaf springs or airbag suspension to manage rear sag under a loaded tow ball. Our team can help you spec a front and rear combination suited to your towing setup.
At a 2" lift height, many Prado 90 Series owners run standard control arms without issue, but upgraded control arms can correct caster angle and reduce CV joint angle strain at ride height. This is more relevant if you're also running larger tyres or plan further lift down the track. We stock upgraded control arms if you want to address geometry proactively.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting this kit. The 2" front lift changes the caster and camber angles at the front axle, and incorrect alignment will cause uneven tyre wear and affect steering feel. We recommend booking an alignment immediately after installation, not after your first long trip.
Yes, King Springs offer standard and constant load rated options for the front coil springs in this kit. Constant load springs are the better choice if you run a permanent bull bar, winch and driving lights, as they hold the 2" lift height under that fixed weight. Talk to our team about your accessory load before ordering so we can confirm the right spring rate.
A 2" front lift typically increases front wheel arch clearance, which helps fit a taller tyre than what came standard on the Prado 90 Series. Exact tyre clearance depends on your wheel offset and width, so we recommend confirming your intended tyre size with our team before purchase. Rubbing at full steering lock can still occur with wider tyres even after lifting.
This kit is backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty on the B6 Offroad shock absorbers, in addition to standard warranty cover on the King Springs coil springs. We handle warranty claims through our Australian-based team, so you're not dealing with an overseas supplier directly. Keep your invoice as proof of purchase for any warranty claim.
Yes, the B6 Offroad shock valving is tuned to work with the matched King Springs coil springs, so the Prado retains a controlled, factory-like ride on sealed roads while adding front-end capability for touring. Many owners run this kit as their daily driver and weekend tourer without a harsh ride trade-off. Allow the 500km bedding-in period before judging final ride characteristics.
