Hey Guys and Gals!
In this video i show you exactly how to change the suspension setup in your IFS 4wd from the standard setup to a Heavy Duty off-road ready lift kit.
For my lift kit I chose Outback Armour pre-assembled front struts with rear heavy duty coils and shocks. The added strength and reliability from the larger bore shock absorbers means that I will be able to rely on my suspension setup to get me through the rough stuff and all the way home again!
In this video i show you how i installed the lift kit into my 2018 model Isuzu Mu-x. To complete the job i used assorted spanners, ratchets and sockets, 2 x car jacks, 2 x car jack stands, flat blade and phillips head screw driver and a few other tools.
The job can be quite easily carried out at home if you have the right tools and will take you between 2-4 hours for a complete lift kit depending on your experience.
The Outback Armour lift kit lifted the MU-X approximately 50mm all around on each corner.
If you enjoyed this video and would like to see more of the 2018 Isuzu MU-X then hit the subscribe button and the thumbs up and stay tuned for the build up.

got my lh thumb black bruised from fab of my diy ramp for my mux. nice vids.
Very good video clip / Isuzu Mu-X 4×4 Blue Power
Pity we didnt get to see a before and after pic of ride height change.
Hey mate looking at getting OA upgrade. Where do you work? Chasing some quotes. Cheers.
Portal Axles????
enjoyed your video, very helpful. Only question I have is that I have always been told that any bushing bolt/nuts should not be fully tightened until the car is back on the ground on its wheels and you have moved the suspension through a few compression rebound strokes. i.e bounced it up and down a bit so the bolts are seated correctly in the bushes and don't get torn up shortly after fitting them
subscribing….. I have the same model and same color mux 2018 cheers…
more upgrade and ideas to come
You should have not tightened the shocks completely while the car is raised,, weight should be full then shocks tightened up.. any smart mechanic would know this . bushes be worn n busted out bfr you know it !!!
Greetings Nick! Awesome upgrade. I have the same SUV (mu-X) but i have the base trim. Are you planning to do more upgrades in the future for your mu-X? I would love to watch how you do it. Cheers Mate!
Hi Nick, love your channel mate. Why Outback Armour suspension kit and not EFS or Dobinsons etc?
Maybe in real time, that job should take only 1 hour or less
That's awesome news Nick – simple install and good quality aftermarket gear. Just wondering how is the ride like on bitumen after the lift kit was installed?
Looking forward to the rest of the build.
