The Bilstein Ultimate 2" Lift Kit suits the Holden Colorado RG (2012-2016) and pairs long-travel B6 Offroad struts with King Springs raised coil and leaf springs for a genuine 2" lift front and rear. Blackhawk adjustable upper control arms correct camber and caster at ride height, keeping CV and steering angles within factory tolerance — check exact fitment for your Colorado RG before ordering. The kit adds clearance for larger tyres and steadier load-carrying for touring, canopy and towing setups. Dispatched from Australian stock with full manufacturer warranty and fitment support from our team.

Choose your spring rate based on the constant weight you carry, not just occasional loads. Front rate should account for a bullbar, winch and driving lights; rear rate should cover a canopy, drawer system, water tanks, dual battery setup or a caravan/camper trailer tow ball weight. If you run heavy constant accessory loads, tell our team the fitted weight so we can confirm the correct King Springs rate or point you toward airbag suspension as a supplementary load-leveling option.
This kit involves strut, spring, leaf spring and control arm replacement, so we recommend an experienced 4WD suspension fitter rather than a first-time DIY job. A wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to reset camber, caster and toe at the new 2" ride height. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for the King Springs and B6 Offroad struts to settle before fine-tuning tyre pressures and load. For best geometry correction at this lift height, pair the kit with our control arm upgrades if not already included in your build.
Bilstein has manufactured monotube shock technology since the 1950s and its B6 Offroad range is calibrated specifically for lifted 4WDs carrying touring and work accessories. Components in this kit are covered by manufacturer warranty and backed by our Australian-based fitment support team who can confirm spring rates and control arm compatibility before you order. Tourers, tradies and Colorado owners running canopies or camper trailers rely on the B6 Offroad platform for consistent damping under repeated load cycles — view the full Bilstein range.
This kit suits Colorado RG owners fitting a bullbar, winch, canopy or drawer system who need a 2" lift with a spring rate matched to that constant load. It's also a solid option for caravan and camper trailer towers wanting steadier rear-end control at tow ball weight, and for tray-back tradies carrying tools daily. If your accessory load varies trip to trip, ask us about pairing this kit with airbag suspension for adjustable load support.

This kit is designed specifically for the Holden Colorado RG built between 2012 and 2016, covering both diesel and V6 petrol variants. It is not a universal fitment — RG models before or after this build range may use different mounting points or steering geometry. Check your build date on the compliance plate or use our parts finder for this vehicle before ordering. If you're unsure, our fitment team can confirm compatibility from your VIN or build date.
The Bilstein Ultimate kit provides a 2" lift at both the front and rear of the Colorado RG. Front lift comes from the B6 Offroad struts and King Springs raised coil springs, while rear lift comes from the King Springs leaf springs. This is a genuine 2" increase over factory ride height, not a maximum figure reliant on unloaded measurement. Actual ride height can vary slightly depending on fitted accessories and load.
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 struts, 2 x Bilstein B6 Offroad rear shocks, 2 x King Springs raised front coil springs, 2 x King Springs rear leaf springs, and 2 x Blackhawk adjustable upper control arms. It also includes front strut top mounts, rear U-bolt hardware, bump stop spacers and full mounting hardware. Wheel alignment is required after fitting and is not included in the kit price.
Yes, the King Springs rear leaf springs in this kit are constant load rated, which suits Colorado RG owners towing camper trailers or caravans with a steady tow ball weight. The B6 Offroad rear shocks are matched to this spring rate to control body movement under load. If your tow ball weight varies significantly trip to trip, ask our team about pairing this kit with airbag suspension for adjustable load support. Confirm your typical loaded weight with us so we can verify the spring rate suits your setup.
Blackhawk fully adjustable upper control arms are already included in this kit, so no separate control arm purchase is needed. These arms restore correct camber and caster at the 2" lift height, which factory control arms cannot properly achieve once raised. This keeps CV joint angles, tyre wear and steering geometry within a serviceable range. Our fitment team can talk you through the alignment specs your installer should target after fitting.
Yes, a full wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this lift kit. Raising ride height by 2" changes camber, caster and toe from factory settings, and the Blackhawk control arms need to be set correctly to restore proper geometry. Skipping alignment leads to uneven tyre wear and can affect steering feel. We recommend booking your alignment immediately after fitment, before extended driving.
King Springs offers different rear leaf spring rates to suit varying constant accessory loads, so it's worth telling us your fitted weight — canopy, drawers, water tanks, dual battery — before ordering. Front coil spring rates can also be matched to bullbar, winch and driving light weight. Our team can confirm the correct rate for your build so the 2" lift height sits evenly once loaded. This ensures the kit doesn't sag at the rear or sit too high at the front once accessories are fitted.
A 2" lift on the Colorado RG typically clears larger tyre diameters than factory, but exact clearance depends on wheel offset, width and whether a body lift or extended flares are also fitted. We recommend confirming your intended tyre size with our team before purchase so we can advise on rubbing points at full lock and full compression. Larger tyres may also affect final gearing and speedometer accuracy, which is worth factoring into your build plan.
This kit is covered by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty on the struts and shocks, along with the King Springs and Blackhawk control arm warranties as supplied by each manufacturer. Warranty terms cover manufacturing defects under normal on-road and off-road use. Keep your proof of purchase and have the kit fitted and aligned correctly, as incorrect installation can affect warranty claims. Contact our team if you need the specific warranty documentation for these components.
Yes, the B6 Offroad struts are calibrated to retain comfortable on-road damping while still handling off-road articulation, so the Colorado RG remains suitable for daily commuting and highway driving after fitment. Ride quality will feel firmer than factory settings, particularly unladen, which is typical of a lift kit matched to accessory loads. Once the correct spring rate is selected and alignment is set, most daily-driven RG owners report stable, predictable handling. Allow the 500km bedding-in period before final judgement on ride feel.
