Choose your rear spring rate based on the constant weight you carry — a tray, canopy, dual battery system, water tanks or a camper trailer tow ball load all add constant weight that changes which leaf spring pack suits you best. Front spring selection should account for winch, bull bar and driving light weight sitting ahead of the front axle. Common accessories affecting spring choice include bull bars, winches, canopies, drawer systems, long-range fuel tanks and camper trailers. If you're unsure of your accessory load, get in touch with our team before ordering so we can confirm the right spring rate for your setup.
This is a comprehensive front and rear suspension changeover involving spring, shock and control arm replacement, so we recommend fitment by an experienced 4WD suspension installer or qualified mechanic. A wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to reset castor, camber and toe at the new 2" ride height. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for the new springs and shocks to settle, then re-check U-bolt and control arm bolt torque as part of routine service. The kit includes Blackhawk control arms to correct geometry at ride height, but if you later add further lift or accessories, browse our full control arm range for other options.
Bilstein has supplied monotube shock technology to OEM and aftermarket 4WD suspension applications for decades, with the B6 Offroad range specifically valved for Australian road and track conditions. Every Bilstein shock uses a monotube design that separates gas and oil into a single tube to reduce foaming under sustained corrugation work, and is backed by a manufacturer warranty. Tourers and tradespeople across Australia run Bilstein shocks for consistent damping under load — view the full Bilstein range for other vehicle applications.
This kit suits Isuzu D-Max owners adding a bull bar, winch, canopy or camper trailer who need ride height and load capacity to match their setup. It's aimed at tourers running corrugated outback roads and tradespeople carrying tools and equipment daily. If your load varies trip to trip rather than sitting constant, airbag suspension can be added to the rear for adjustable load support.

Yes — this Bilstein Ultimate 2" Lift Kit is designed specifically for the Isuzu D-Max RC/TF series built 2012 to 2020, fitted with the 3.0L 4JJ1-TCX turbo diesel engine. It is not designed for the D-Max facelift model from 2021 onward, which uses a different chassis and suspension mounting layout. If you're unsure which series your ute is, check your compliance plate or use our parts finder tool. Our fitment team can also confirm compatibility against your VIN before you order.
This kit delivers a 2" lift front and rear, achieved with King Springs raised coil springs at the front and matched leaf springs at the rear. Bilstein B6 monotube shocks are valved specifically to work with this raised ride height rather than being a straight factory-length replacement. The result is corrected geometry and clearance for larger tyres and touring accessories. Actual ride height can vary slightly depending on vehicle load and accessory weight.
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 shocks, 2 x Bilstein B6 monotube rear shocks, King Springs 2" raised front coil springs, matched rear leaf springs, Blackhawk front upper and lower control arms, U-bolt kit, mounting hardware and polyurethane bushes. Full fitting instructions and warranty documentation are included. It's a complete front and rear suspension changeover in one kit.
Yes, the rear leaf springs and Bilstein B6 shocks are matched to carry constant accessory and tow ball loads such as canopies, tool boxes and camper trailers. If you tow heavier loads regularly, contact our team about rear leaf spring pack options to match your typical tow ball weight. Correct spring selection for your load keeps the rear from sagging and maintains handling under tow.
No — Blackhawk front upper and lower control arms are included in this kit and correct castor and camber angle at the 2" lift height. This means no separate control arm purchase is required for standard fitment. If you later add further lift or accessories, our control arm range has additional options.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting this or any lift kit to reset toe, camber and castor to manufacturer tolerances at the new ride height. Skipping alignment causes uneven tyre wear and can affect steering feel and highway stability. We recommend booking an alignment immediately after installation, before extended driving.
Yes, King Springs coil and leaf spring options can be tailored to your constant accessory load. Contact our team before ordering so we can match the rear leaf pack to your canopy, tray or camper trailer weight. Getting the spring rate right keeps the vehicle sitting level both laden and unladen.
A 2" lift on the D-Max typically clears larger tyres, commonly up to a 33-inch diameter on factory-width wheels, though clearance depends on wheel offset and any body modifications. Confirm your intended tyre and wheel combination with our fitment team to check clearance at full steering lock and suspension compression. This avoids rubbing on guards or chassis rails once fitted.
Bilstein shocks are covered under Bilstein's manufacturer warranty, while King Springs and Blackhawk components carry their respective manufacturer warranty terms. Contact our team for specific warranty periods and the claim process for each component. We're an Australian-based supplier and can assist with warranty support directly.
Yes, the Bilstein B6 Offroad monotube shocks are valved to retain comfortable on-road manners while adding off-road control, so this kit is suitable for daily commuting as well as touring and towing. Owners running this kit get corrected ride height for accessories without a harsh unladen ride around town. Regular servicing and the recommended 500km bedding-in period help maintain that balance.
