The Bilstein Lift Kit for Toyota Hilux N70 (2005-2015) pairs Bilstein monotube shock absorbers with King Springs coil and leaf springs to deliver a 2" front and 3" rear lift with genuine load-carrying capability for touring and towing. Monotube damping keeps oil and gas separate for consistent control on corrugations and under load, while the raised springs restore ride height after common accessory fitment.

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 rear leaf spring rate based on the constant weight you carry, not just occasional loads — a heavier-rated spring for a fitted canopy, tray or camper will sag less and keep the 3" lift height under real-world load. Common accessories that add constant weight include steel bull bars and winches up front, and canopies, tool boxes, dual battery trays, water tanks or slide-on campers at the rear. If you're unsure which rate suits your setup, our team can match a spring rate to your accessory list before you order.
This kit involves shock, coil and leaf spring replacement front and rear, so we recommend fitment by an experienced 4WD suspension installer or a mechanically confident DIYer with a hoist and spring compressor on hand. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting — the change in ride height alters camber and caster, and skipping alignment causes uneven tyre wear. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for the springs and shocks to settle before fine-tuning tyre pressures or accessory loads. If you're lifting for larger tyres or heavier touring gear, consider pairing this kit with upgraded control arm upgrades to correct CV and steering angles at full height.
Bilstein has built monotube shock absorbers since the 1950s and supplies OE damping to European and Australian vehicle manufacturers, so the shock technology in this kit isn't a budget aftermarket copy. Each shock is backed by a manufacturer warranty, and the N70 application is matched to King Springs' Australian-made coil and leaf springs for a kit tuned to local roads and load conditions. Tradespeople and touring owners choose this combination because it holds ride height and damping control after months of corrugations, boat ramps and gravel tracks — view the full Bilstein range for other applications.
This kit suits Hilux N70 owners who tow a van or box trailer, run a canopy and tools daily, or head bush with camper trailers and roof top tents needing extra front and rear clearance. If your accessory load is constant and heavy — such as a permanent canopy and toolboxes — talk to us about whether a heavier leaf spring rate or airbag suspension assist suits your setup better than the standard rate offered here.

This kit is designed for the Toyota Hilux N70 built 2005 to 2015, covering SR, SR5 and Workmate variants across single cab, extra cab and dual cab 4x4 models. It suits 2.5L and 3.0L turbo diesel engines as well as the 4.0L V6 petrol. Confirm your exact build date and variant with our team through our contact page or parts finder before ordering, since running gear can vary between early and late N70 production.
This kit delivers a 2" front lift from the King Springs raised coil springs and a 3" rear lift from the King Springs raised leaf springs. Actual ride height gained depends on your vehicle's factory GVM, existing accessories, and whether you fit the standard or a heavier-rated rear spring. Bilstein shocks are valved specifically for this lift height, so ride quality stays controlled rather than floaty at the new height.
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 Bilstein front shock absorbers, 2 Bilstein rear shock absorbers, King Springs front coil springs, King Springs rear leaf spring assemblies, U-bolt kits, bushes and mounting hardware, plus fitting instructions. Upper control arms are not included and are sold separately if your alignment specs require them at this lift height. Everything needed for the shock and spring swap itself is supplied.
Yes, the rear leaf spring option is selected to support a constant load such as tow ball weight or canopy, and the Bilstein rear shock is valved to control the added spring rate under a hitched trailer. Confirm your tow ball weight and GVM before choosing a spring rate so the rear doesn't sag under a loaded van or box trailer. Talk to our team if you tow regularly so we can match the leaf spring rate to your actual constant load.
A 2-3" lift on the N70 Hilux changes front CV joint and control arm operating angles, and many owners fit aftermarket control arms to correct this and regain factory-level articulation. It isn't compulsory for the lift kit to function, but it's recommended if you're running near-full lift or larger tyres. Our team can advise whether your specific N70 variant needs this upgrade based on your lift and tyre size.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting this kit. Ride height, camber and caster are all altered by a 2-3" lift, and skipping alignment leads to uneven and premature tyre wear. Have your alignment done after the recommended 500km bedding-in period once the springs have settled to their working height.
Yes, King Springs offers multiple rear leaf spring rate options for the N70 to suit light accessories through to constant heavy loads like slide-on campers or full canopies. Front coil rate is generally matched to the lift height and a standard bull bar weight. Contact our team with your accessory list and we'll recommend the correct rear spring rate before you order.
A 2" front and 3" rear lift on the N70 Hilux typically clears a modest tyre size increase, commonly up to a 33-inch tyre depending on wheel offset and body modifications. Exact clearance depends on your wheel width, offset and whether you trim plastic guard liners. Speak with our fitment team about your target tyre size before ordering wheels to avoid rubbing at full articulation.
This kit is covered by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty on the shock absorbers, and King Springs backs its coil and leaf springs with their standard manufacturer warranty. Warranty covers manufacturing defects under normal on-road and off-road use, not damage from incorrect fitment or misuse. Keep your invoice from 4WD Suspension Australia as proof of purchase for any warranty claim.
Yes, this kit suits daily driving as well as touring and towing — the Bilstein monotube shock is valved for a balance of on-road comfort and control rather than an off-road-only setup. Owners running this kit as a daily driven ute report predictable handling unladen and steady control once loaded. If your vehicle is mostly unladen daily with occasional heavy loads, mention this to our team so we can check the spring rate suits that mixed use.
