Upgrade your Nissan Navara D22 (1997-ON) with premium suspension and lift kits engineered specifically for Australian touring, towing and off-road conditions. This page features complete 2" lift kits, heavy-duty rear leaf springs, and premium shock absorbers from trusted brands including Bilstein, Dobinsons and Toughdog. All products are Australian stock with fast dispatch Australia-wide, backed by expert fitment advice and genuine manufacturer warranties.
The D22 Navara responds exceptionally well to a 2" lift, which balances ride quality, legal compliance and off-road capability without requiring modifications to driveline components. Complete kits on this page feature advanced shock technologies including Bilstein's gas pressure monotube design and Dobinsons' nitro gas damping for superior control both on and off-road. When selecting leaf springs or complete kits, consider your typical rear load — whether you're running a canopy, drawers, dual battery setup or regularly towing, as this will determine the optimal spring rate for maintaining level ride height under accessories.
All suspension products are held as Australian stock for fast dispatch, with expert technical support available to ensure correct fitment for your specific D22 model year and configuration. Our team understands the nuances of the D22 platform — from the early 1997 models through to the final 2015 variants — and can provide tailored advice on shock valving, spring rates and lift compatibility. Call us on 1300 120 020 for personalised fitment guidance, or browse our range of trusted brands with confidence knowing every kit is backed by manufacturer warranty and our commitment to quality.
A 2" lift is the most popular choice for the D22 Navara as it provides excellent ground clearance for off-road use, accommodates up to 32" tyres without rubbing, and maintains driveline angles without requiring CV modifications. This height keeps the vehicle within legal limits in most Australian states while delivering noticeable capability gains. If you're primarily touring on gravel roads or occasional tracks, a 2" lift offers the ideal balance between comfort, capability and compliance.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is essential after installing any lift kit on your D22 Navara. Lifting the suspension alters camber, caster and toe settings which can cause uneven tyre wear and poor handling if not corrected. Most reputable suspension installers will include alignment in their fitting service, but if you're doing the install yourself, budget for a professional alignment immediately afterwards to ensure optimal steering feel, tyre life and on-road safety.
The best brand depends on your driving style and budget. Bilstein offers premium monotube shock technology with exceptional fade resistance and longevity, making it ideal for serious tourers and those who demand the best ride quality. Dobinsons provides excellent all-round performance with nitro gas damping that suits both highway touring and moderate off-road use. Toughdog delivers proven reliability and value, perfect for weekend warriors and those seeking a quality upgrade without premium pricing. All three brands perform exceptionally well on the D22 platform.
