Fix your bakkie’s load handling and upgrade its trail performance with the commercial truck-tough RAW 4x4 Heavy-Duty Suspension Kit for the Nissan Navara D40 (2005–2017), covering 2.5 dCi, 3.0 V6 V9X, and 4.0L V6 variants. Born from a legacy of heavy commercial vehicle engineering by Powerdown, this system eliminates the soft, wallowing unladen ride of the stock D40 while providing up to 50mm of ground clearance — the maximum safe threshold for the D40’s independent front CV axles — for superior axle articulation and confident load carrying.
Whether you’re carrying a Quick Pitch Quick-en-Suite Box Unit or a permanent rear canopy setup, the upgraded front coils and R-NAV05B Constant-Load Leaf Springs stop dangerous rear-end sag dead in its tracks. Equipped with massive 41–45mm-bore Nitro Max shocks with expanded oil volumes and multi-lip HNBR high-temperature seals, this kit completely eradicates dampening fade over hours of brutal corrugated gravel bush tracks.
