Nolathane is recognised worldwide for its high quality polyurethane suspension components engineered to improve TFS III, RG01 4WD D-MAX handling, stability, and steering precision. Designed as a performance-focused upgrade over standard rubber components, Nolathane TFS III, RG01 4WD D-MAX products help restore suspension accuracy while delivering improved durability and more predictable vehicle behaviour.
As vehicles age, factory rubber components naturally deteriorate, allowing excess movement within the suspension system. Nolathane TFS III, RG01 4WD D-MAX polyurethane components provide a stronger, more durable alternative that reduces unwanted flex and maintains correct suspension geometry. The result is sharper steering response, improved stability, and greater driver confidence in everyday driving conditions.
Why Upgrade Your TFS III, RG01 4WD D-MAX Suspension Components
TFS III, RG01 4WD D-MAX Suspension bushings and chassis components play a critical role in maintaining correct suspension movement and vehicle control.

✅ Fits ISUZU D-MAX TFS III, RG01 4WDSKU: 459152459152 Steering Knuckle Kit - Bump Steer Correction
Optimizing Steering Geometry for Better Handling and SafetyThe 459152 Steering Knuckle Kit is designed to improve steering geometry and reduce bump steer. It is completely legal and doesn't require engineering certification or modification plates. This product is VSB 14 approved and ADR compliant. It functions similarly to installing an upper control arm in your vehicle.
Our engineering team has rigorously tested the aftermarket front knuckle (459152) to VSB 14 load standards using FEA analysis, assessing it for a front axle rating of 1650kg. The tests confirm that the product exceeds strength requirements. It is compatible with any GVM upgrade.
VSB 14 Compliance & Legality
VSB 14 outlines legal requirements for aftermarket modifications. The 459152 knuckle is classified as owner-certified, meaning no engineer or certification is needed once installed. This is similar to installing legal modifications such as upper control arms, shocks, or lift kits.
ADR Compliance & Legal Status
The Australian Design Rules (ADRs) set national safety, anti-theft, and emissions standards for vehicles. While there are no specific ADRs for steering knuckles (similar to control arms or shocks), the 459152 steering knuckle meets OE (Original Equipment) design standards. As there are no ADRs governing the "robustness of a vehicle," VSB 14 is the primary standard for in-service modifications.
Comparison to Other In-Service Modifications
Other similar in-service bolt-on modifications that don't require engineering or mod plates include:
- Leaf Spring Replacement - Parabolic vs. original leaf springs.
- Front Strut Swap - OE strut to aftermarket.
- Bull Bar Installation - No issues with fitting a bull bar.
- Control Arm Upgrade - Replacing a steel control arm with an alloy one.
Nolathane products undergo extensive testing to ensure compliance with relevant engineering standards, offering peace of mind regarding quality.
Benefits
- Enhanced Handling: Improved vehicle dynamics, providing better driving confidence and a smoother feel.
- Better Stability: Improved stability for daily driving, off-roading, and touring.
- Reduced Steering Correction: No more constant steering adjustments or fighting lane assist features.
- Less Driver Fatigue: A more relaxed driving experience and reduced risk of accidents.
- Reduced Tyre Wear: Better tyre contact with the road, increasing tyre life.
Why the Isuzu D-Max, MU-X & Mazda BT-50 Need This Product
These vehicles experience chronic bump steer, which leads to significant tyre wear. This issue is apparent in both standard-height and lifted versions, but becomes more severe with lift modifications.
The 459152 steering knuckle provides a direct replacement, replicating all original features and mounting provisions. Made from hot-forged 4140 AISI steel, it's heat-treated and finished with black e-coat for optimal corrosion resistance.
Pairing 459152 steering knuckles with 459185 upper control arms resolves premature tyre wear, improves alignment, and restores proper handling.
Can Regular Wheel Alignments Fix the Issue?
No. While wheel alignments may temporarily reduce tyre wear, they don't fix the underlying problem. Alignments are a band-aid solution, not a permanent fix.
Alternative Fixes to Steering Knuckle
After extensive testing, we've learned that while an upper control arm may slightly improve bump steer, it doesn't provide a full solution. Adjusting the steering rack pickup point is necessary to properly address bump steer. Using an upper control arm to fix bump steer would cause other issues, such as tyre clearance problems.
The Nolathane steering knuckle is engineered to correct bump steer without introducing new complications.
What is Bump Steer?
Bump steer refers to changes in the vehicle's toe as its ride height changes, especially when driving over bumps. This is particularly problematic when towing, carrying heavy loads, or using a suspension lift. Excessive bump steer causes premature tyre wear, as demonstrated in real-world field tests and R&D.
How Does the Nolathane Steering Knuckle Help?
The Nolathane steering knuckle relocates the tie-rod pickup point to optimize the steering geometry and reduce bump steer across different ride heights. Testing shows a 75% reduction in bump steer when these knuckles are installed in lifted vehicles. When installed in standard-height vehicles, bump steer is reduced to nearly zero.
Combining the 459152 knuckles with 459185 offset upper control arms can reduce bump steer by an additional 10-15%.
