Choose your rear leaf spring rate based on the constant weight you carry, not just occasional loads — a heavier rate suits a fitted canopy, tool boxes, dual battery tray, water tank or regular caravan towball weight, while a lighter rate suits an unladen tray. Front coil rate should account for a steel bullbar, winch and driving lights, since these add sustained weight over the front axle. If you're unsure which rate suits your setup, our team can help match spring rate to your typical accessory and payload combination.
This kit is best fitted by an experienced 4WD suspension workshop or a competent DIY installer with the correct tools, given the torque specifications and leaf spring hardware involved. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting to reset camber, caster and toe at the new ride height. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for springs and shock bushes to settle before a final alignment check. Consider pairing this kit with upgraded control arm upgrades to correct geometry and maximise CV joint life at 2" of lift.
Bilstein has manufactured monotube shock absorbers since the 1950s and supplies original equipment suspension to several vehicle manufacturers. This kit uses valving and spring rates set up for Australian conditions and towing use, backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty. Tradespeople, tourers and everyday D-Max owners across Australia run this combination for its blend of load capacity and ride comfort — view the full Bilstein range for other vehicle applications.
This kit suits D-Max owners who tow regularly, carry tray or canopy accessories, or want extra clearance for touring without losing everyday drivability. Tradespeople running tool boxes and equipment, and tourers hauling camper trailers or caravans, both benefit from the higher-rate rear leaf option. If you're carrying variable loads such as a caravan only on weekends, ask about pairing this kit with airbag suspension for adjustable load support.

This Bilstein 2" Lift Kit fits Isuzu D-Max models built from 2012 through to July 2020, covering both the RC series (2012-2016) and TF series (2017-07/2020). It's a direct bolt-on fit using factory mounting points, so no cutting or drilling is required. If your D-Max sits outside this build range, or you're unsure of your exact series, contact our fitment team with your VIN or compliance plate details before ordering.
This kit delivers a genuine 2" lift front and rear, achieved through Bilstein B6 shock absorbers matched to King Springs raised coil springs at the front and raised leaf springs at the rear. The lift is consistent front-to-rear on a standard, unladen D-Max. Final ride height can vary slightly depending on the rear spring rate selected and any accessory load already fitted to the vehicle.
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 front shock absorbers, 2 x Bilstein B6 rear shock absorbers, 2 x King Springs raised front coil springs and 2 x King Springs raised rear leaf springs. Rear U-bolt kits and greasable shackle hardware for the leaf pack are included, along with fitting instructions. Upper control arms and diff drop kits are not included and are sold separately if required for your setup.
Yes, this kit is commonly fitted to D-Max utes used for towing caravans and camper trailers. The rear leaf springs are available in multiple load ratings, so you can select a rate matched to your typical towball weight and constant accessory load. Selecting too light a rate for a heavy tow setup will still allow rear sag, so tell our team your regular towing weight before ordering.
Control arm upgrades are not compulsory at 2" of lift but are recommended to fully correct caster angle and reduce CV joint operating angle. Standard control arms will still function at this lift height, but upgraded units improve steering feel and reduce wear on driveline components over time. Our control arm range lists options that suit this exact lift height.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after this kit is installed. Camber, caster and toe all change once the D-Max is raised, and an alignment resets these to within specification. We also recommend a follow-up alignment check after a 500km bedding-in period, once springs and bushes have settled to their working height.
Yes, the King Springs rear leaf springs supplied with this kit are available in different load ratings to suit your constant accessory weight, from a bare tray through to a fitted canopy or regular towing setup. Front coil springs are matched to standard-to-moderate accessory loads such as a bullbar and winch. Tell our team what you're carrying day-to-day and we'll recommend the closest matching rate.
A 2" lift typically provides enough clearance for a modest tyre size increase over standard, though exact clearance depends on wheel offset and width as well as any flares fitted. We recommend checking your intended tyre and wheel combination against your D-Max's wheel arch clearance before purchase. Our team can advise on suitable tyre sizing based on this lift height and your wheel specifications.
This kit is backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty on the shock absorbers, plus King Springs' warranty on the coil and leaf springs. Warranty terms cover manufacturing defects under normal on-road and off-road use. Keep your proof of purchase from 4WD Suspension and contact our team directly if you ever need to make a claim.
Yes, this kit is designed to suit D-Max owners who drive daily as well as tour or tow on weekends. The Bilstein B6 monotube shocks and progressive-rate front coils are set up to retain comfortable on-road handling, not just off-road performance. Many owners run this exact combination as their everyday work and family vehicle while still getting the load and clearance benefits when needed.
