Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for optimal ride quality, handling, and component longevity. Your spring rate choice should be based on constant accessory load only — the weight permanently installed on your vehicle, not occasional cargo or passengers. Front constant load includes bull bars, winches, upgraded bumpers, spotlights, long range fuel tanks, and front drawer systems. Rear constant load includes canopies, tray bodies, tool boxes, dual battery systems, rear bars, spare tyre carriers, and permanently mounted cargo. Do not factor in occasional loads like camping gear, water tanks, or towing — selecting too heavy a spring rate will result in harsh ride quality and potential damage to other suspension components. When ordering, accurately assess your constant load and select the appropriate spring rate for both front and rear to achieve the advertised 2-3 inch lift with optimal comfort.
Professional installation by a qualified 4WD suspension specialist is strongly recommended for this lift kit to ensure proper fitment, safety, and warranty compliance. Installation typically requires 6-8 hours and includes removal of factory suspension components, fitting of new struts, shocks, leaf springs, bushes, and hardware. Wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to factory specifications or to suit your specific tyre and load requirements — failure to align will cause premature tyre wear and handling issues. A 500km break-in period is recommended, during which springs will settle and components will bed in — recheck all mounting hardware torque after this period. For vehicles with heavy constant loads or aggressive off-road use, consider pairing this kit with upgraded control arms to correct castor angle and improve steering geometry at lifted heights.

Yes, this kit is specifically engineered for Ford Ranger PX1 (2011-2015) and PX2 (2015-2018) models across all cab configurations including single cab, super cab, and dual cab. The kit fits both 2WD and 4WD variants, though 4WD is most common for lift applications. If you have a PX3 (2018+) or earlier model Ranger, this kit will not fit — please check our parts finder for compatible options. For confirmation of fitment to your specific build date or variant, contact our suspension experts with your VIN number.
This kit provides between 2 to 3 inches (50-75mm) of lift depending on your vehicle's existing load configuration and the spring rates you select during ordering. Heavily loaded vehicles with constant accessories will typically achieve closer to 2 inches, while lighter configurations may reach the full 3 inches. The final ride height will settle after the initial 500km break-in period as springs compress and components bed in. This lift height is ideal for fitting 32-33 inch tyres without additional modifications, improving ground clearance, and enhancing approach and departure angles for off-road driving.
This comprehensive kit includes everything needed for a complete front and rear suspension upgrade: 2 x pre-assembled Bilstein B60 60mm bore front struts with matched coil springs, 2 x Bilstein B60 60mm bore rear shock absorbers, 2 x heavy duty raised rear leaf springs with custom rate selection, polyurethane bush kit, greasable shackles and pins, heavy duty U-bolts, tailshaft centre bearing spacer kit, and all mounting hardware. The front struts come pre-assembled to save installation time and ensure correct compression. You will need to select appropriate spring rates for both front and rear during ordering based on your constant accessory load.
Absolutely — this kit is engineered specifically for heavy-duty towing applications with increased rear leaf spring rates and large 60mm bore shocks that resist fade under sustained load. The kit will significantly reduce rear squat when towing caravans, camper trailers, and boat trailers, improving stability, braking performance, and headlight aim under tongue weight. For optimal towing performance, accurately specify your constant rear load when selecting spring rates, and consider adding airbag suspension for fine-tunable load levelling when towing varying trailer weights. The monotube design maintains consistent damping even during long highway towing sessions in Australian heat.
While not mandatory for a 2-3 inch lift on the Ranger PX platform, upgraded control arms are highly recommended for optimal steering geometry, improved castor angle, and maximum tyre clearance. The factory control arms will work with this lift height, but aftermarket adjustable or extended control arms will correct the camber and castor changes that occur when lifting, resulting in better on-road handling, reduced tyre wear, and improved high-speed stability. If you're planning to fit 33 inch tyres or larger, or if you frequently drive long highway distances, control arms should be considered a worthwhile investment alongside this kit.
Yes, professional 4-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any lift kit, including this Bilstein system. Lifting your vehicle changes suspension geometry, castor angle, camber, and toe settings, all of which must be corrected to factory specifications or adjusted to suit your new ride height and tyre size. Failure to perform alignment after installation will cause rapid and uneven tyre wear, poor handling, steering pull, and potentially dangerous high-speed instability. Your alignment technician should also verify bump stop clearance and check for any contact points at full suspension compression and steering lock.
Yes, and you must select spring rates for both front and rear during the ordering process based on your specific constant accessory load. Front spring rates should reflect permanent additions like bull bars, winches, and long range tanks, while rear rates should account for canopies, tool boxes, dual batteries, and rear bars. It's critical to select rates based only on constant load — not occasional camping gear or towing weight. Selecting too heavy a spring rate will result in harsh ride quality and potential damage to other components, while too light will cause excessive sag and bottoming. Our suspension experts can guide your selection if you're unsure.
With this 2-3 inch lift installed on your Ford Ranger PX1/PX2, you can comfortably fit 32 inch tyres with standard wheels, or 33 inch tyres with appropriate wheel offset and minor trimming of plastic inner guards. Some aggressive tread patterns may require additional clearancing of bump stops or front inner fender liner. If you're planning to run 33 inch or larger tyres, we strongly recommend pairing this lift with offset control arms to provide additional clearance at full steering lock and full compression. Always test fit and check clearance at full lock and compression before committing to final tyre selection.
This Bilstein B60 lift kit is backed by Bilstein's comprehensive manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Bilstein shock absorbers typically carry a substantial warranty period that reflects their legendary durability and quality construction. Warranty coverage requires professional installation, proof of purchase, and adherence to recommended service intervals including regular inspection of mounting hardware and bushes. The leaf springs and hardware components are also covered under manufacturer warranty terms. For specific warranty duration and claim procedures, refer to the warranty documentation included with your kit or contact our team for details.
Yes, this Bilstein B60 kit excels in daily driving and highway touring applications thanks to the large 60mm bore monotube design that delivers exceptional ride quality across all road conditions. Unlike budget twin-tube shocks that can feel harsh or vague, Bilstein's gas-pressure monotube technology provides a firm yet compliant ride that absorbs corrugations and bumps while maintaining excellent high-speed stability. The kit is engineered for the specific demands of Australian highway touring — long distances, heavy loads, and sustained high speeds in extreme heat. Thousands of Ranger owners rely on Bilstein suspension for daily commuting, worksite duties, and weekend touring without compromise.
