The Blackhawk Ultimate Adjustable Upper Control Arms (BHU4727D) suit the Isuzu D-Max RG (08/2020-on), Isuzu MU-X RJ (08/2021-on) and Mazda BT-50 TF (09/2020-on), and correct camber and caster geometry after a 2" front lift. Fully adjustable ball joint positioning restores alignment angles inside factory tolerance, while high-tensile steel arms and greasable ball joints handle touring and towing loads without premature bushing wear. Pair them with a Blackhawk4x4 lift kit for correct geometry at ride height. Caster and camber are set on the vehicle using the Blackhawk Ultimate adjustment spanner. Backed by manufacturer warranty, dispatched from Australian stock, with fitment support from our team.

Choosing the right front coil spring rate matters just as much as control arm geometry. Heavier accessories such as a winch, steel bull bar, and driving light bar increase static front-end load, so a higher-rated coil is often needed to keep the arm angle within its adjustable range once lifted. Talk to our team about matching front coil springs to your bull bar and winch weight before booking your alignment.
Fitment requires unbolting the factory upper control arm and torquing the new unit to manufacturer spec, a job best handled by an experienced 4WD fitter or workshop with an alignment hoist. Wheel alignment is mandatory straight after installation to set camber and caster within tolerance. Allow a 500km settling period for the polyurethane bushings before a final alignment check. Pair the arms with matching lower control arm upgrades if you are running a larger lift or heavier front accessories.
Blackhawk4x4 designs suspension components for Australian conditions, from corrugated outback tracks to daily tradie use. Every Ultimate Adjustable Upper Control Arm ships with greasable ball joints and a manufacturer warranty, backed by our local stock and fitment support. Tourers and tradespeople running lifted D-Max and MU-X utes rely on this arm to keep alignment correct after a suspension lift — view the full Blackhawk4x4 range for matching shocks and springs.
This control arm suits D-Max and MU-X owners who have already fitted, or plan to fit, a 1" to 2" front lift and need the geometry corrected properly rather than left on factory-limited adjustment. It is a practical upgrade for tradespeople carrying tray loads, tourers running bull bars and winches, and caravan tow rigs needing stable steering geometry. Load-carrying setups running airbag suspension at the rear also benefit from correct front-end alignment to keep tyre wear even front to rear.

Yes, this Blackhawk Ultimate Adjustable Upper Control Arm is built specifically for the Isuzu D-Max RG built from 08/2020 and the MU-X UX built from 08/2021. It is not a universal fit part — it uses the factory mounting points on these chassis. If you have an earlier D-Max or MU-X, check with our team via the parts finder for your vehicle before ordering. Contact us with your build date if you are unsure which series you have.
This control arm does not add lift on its own — it corrects camber and caster geometry after you have already fitted a front lift, typically in the 1" to 2" range. The adjustable ball joint position extends the usable alignment window beyond what the factory arm allows at a raised ride height. If you are still choosing a lift height, our team can advise which control arm setting suits a 2" versus 3" front lift.
The kit includes a pair of Blackhawk Ultimate Adjustable Upper Control Arms with greasable ball joints and polyurethane bushings pre-fitted, plus adjustable cam bolts and mounting hardware. Fitting instructions are included in the box. Lower control arms, shock absorbers, and coil springs are sold separately. See the full kit contents list on this page for the exact component breakdown.
Yes, the arm uses high-tensile steel construction designed to handle the extra static and dynamic load that comes with towing and touring accessories. Correct camber and caster under load reduces steering wander when towing a van or trailer at a lifted ride height. For heavier tow setups, pair it with correctly rated front coil springs and check your rear spring or airbag setup for the added tow ball load.
Not always — it depends on your lift height and how far your current geometry is out of factory tolerance. At a 1" lift, the upper arm alone is often enough to bring camber and caster back within spec. At 2" or beyond, or with heavier front accessories fitted, a matching lower control arm upgrade is worth discussing with our fitment team.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory immediately after installation. The adjustable cam bolts on this arm are set by an alignment technician to bring camber and caster back within Isuzu's factory tolerance at your lifted ride height. Skipping alignment leads to uneven tyre wear and can affect steering feel. We recommend a follow-up alignment check after a 500km settling period.
Yes, front coil spring rate is chosen separately based on your fitted accessories such as a winch, bull bar, and driving lights. A higher-rated coil keeps ride height consistent and keeps the control arm operating within its designed adjustment range. Our team can match coil springs to your accessory weight when you order.
This control arm corrects geometry rather than adding clearance for larger tyres directly, but it does help maintain proper camber when you have already lifted the vehicle to run bigger rubber. Wheel travel clearance is also improved over the stock arm, which helps reduce rubbing at full droop. Tyre size clearance ultimately depends on your total lift height, wheel offset, and any flares fitted — talk to our team about your exact combination.
This Blackhawk Ultimate Adjustable Upper Control Arm is backed by the manufacturer's warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Greasable ball joints allow scheduled maintenance rather than early wear-related failure. Keep your proof of purchase and follow the recommended grease intervals to maintain warranty cover. Contact our team if you have any installation or warranty questions.
Yes, once correctly aligned, the adjustable geometry restores steering feel closer to factory for everyday driving, not just off-road use. The polyurethane bushings are firmer than stock rubber, which some drivers notice as slightly more direct steering response. It is a common upgrade for D-Max and MU-X owners running a lift as their daily and weekend tow vehicle. Fit and alignment by an experienced installer keeps on-road manners predictable.
