Spring rate should be chosen based on the constant accessory weight sitting on the vehicle, not just the vehicle's kerb weight. Front rate is influenced by a steel bullbar, winch and secondary battery mounted forward of the axle, while rear rate depends on a canopy, drawers, water tank, fridge slide or dual battery setup. If you're unsure which rate suits your build, our team can work through your accessory list and towing habits before you order.
This kit is best fitted by an experienced 4WD suspension installer or a competent DIY mechanic with a hoist and standard hand tools. Wheel alignment is mandatory after installation, as the raised ride height changes camber and caster angles. Allow a 500km break-in period for the King springs to settle to their final ride height before final alignment. Many Prado owners pair this kit with upgraded control arms to correct rear axle geometry and CV angles at the 2" lift height.
Bilstein has been manufacturing monotube shock absorbers since the 1950s and the B6 range is tuned specifically for raised-height touring vehicles rather than adapted from a factory-height design. The kit is backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty and dispatched from our Australian stock, with our team available to confirm spring rate and fitment before you buy. Tourers and tradespeople running Prados with constant accessory loads make up the bulk of our B6 kit sales for this vehicle. You can view the full Bilstein range if you're comparing against other B6 or B8 applications.
This kit suits Prado 120 owners running a bullbar, winch, roof rack and canopy for touring, as well as tradespeople carrying tools and equipment on a regular basis. If your rear load varies significantly trip to trip — for example towing a caravan some weekends and running empty the rest of the week — it's worth comparing this coil spring kit against an airbag suspension setup for variable load support.

This Bilstein B6 kit is built for the Toyota Prado 120 Series (GX, GXL, VX and Grande) built between 2002 and 2009, covering the 1KD-FTV diesel, 3RZ-FE, 5VZ-FE and 1GR-FE petrol variants. If you're unsure of your exact build date or engine code, check your compliance plate or use our Prado 120 Series parts finder before ordering. Our team can also confirm fitment over phone or email if you give us your VIN or build details.
This kit provides a 2" lift at the front and a 2" lift at the rear, using King raised coil springs matched to the Bilstein B6 shock stroke. The lift is achieved through raised-height coil springs rather than spacers, so ride quality and shock travel are maintained. Actual ride height can vary slightly depending on your vehicle's existing load and spring rate selection.
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, 2 x Bilstein B6 monotube rear shock absorbers, and 2 x King raised coil springs for both the front and rear. Mounting bushes and hardware are included for the shocks, along with fitment instructions and torque specifications. Upper and lower control arms are not included and are sold separately if your alignment requires them.
Yes, this kit is suitable for moderate towing when paired with a rear King coil spring rate matched to your tow ball download and any canopy or drawer system already fitted. The B6 shock damping is designed to control the additional spring compression under load without becoming harsh unladen. For heavier or more frequent towing, our team can recommend a firmer rear spring rate as part of this kit.
At a 2" lift, most Prado 120 owners do not strictly need upper control arm upgrades, but they're worth considering if you're also fitting larger tyres or towing regularly. Upgraded control arms help correct caster angle and CV joint angles that shift slightly at raised height. Our control arm range includes options designed to work alongside this lift height.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting this kit. The 2" lift changes camber and caster angles at both axles, and running the vehicle without a post-fit alignment will cause uneven tyre wear. We recommend aligning the vehicle after the suggested 500km spring settling period for the most accurate result.
Yes, King coil springs for this kit are available in multiple rates so you can match the vehicle's constant accessory load, whether that's a bullbar and winch up front or a canopy and water tank at the rear. Tell our team what accessories are fitted or planned and we'll recommend the closest rate. Getting this right up front avoids a saggy rear or an overly firm, jarring ride.
A 2" lift on the Prado 120 Series typically provides enough clearance for a modest increase in tyre diameter over standard, though exact clearance depends on your wheel offset and any body modifications. We recommend confirming your intended tyre size with our team before ordering, particularly if you're also running a wider wheel.
This kit is backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty on the B6 shock absorbers, covering manufacturing defects under normal use. King coil springs carry their own manufacturer warranty against manufacturing faults. Keep your proof of purchase and installation date, as warranty claims are assessed against these records.
Yes, the Bilstein B6 and King spring combination is designed to be driven daily, not just off-road. The monotube shock is tuned to control the raised spring rate without transmitting harshness through the cabin on sealed roads. Many owners run this exact kit as their only suspension setup, using it for daily commuting, highway trips and weekend touring.
