This high-pressure kit is engineered for vehicles carrying constant heavy loads or towing regularly. Start with 10-15 PSI for light loads (weekend camping gear), increase to 20-30 PSI for medium loads (roof top tent and touring setup), and inflate to 35-50 PSI for maximum loads (full caravan towing or heavy trade equipment). Always inflate to achieve level stance while staying within manufacturer's maximum PSI rating. Common rear load accessories include dual battery systems, drawer storage units, fridges, water tanks, recovery boards, roof top tents, awnings, and rear bar accessories which can add 200-400kg to your Everest's rear axle.
This Easy Fit Kit is designed for straightforward installation by experienced DIY enthusiasts or professional workshops, with an estimated fitment time of approximately 120 minutes using common hand tools. No drilling or modification to factory coil springs required - air bags mount using vehicle-specific brackets between the chassis and rear axle assembly. While wheel alignment is not mandatory for air bag installation (unlike lift kits), we recommend checking your vehicle's alignment if you're also upgrading other suspension components. After installation, cycle through various pressure settings over the first few drives to familiarize yourself with the handling characteristics at different inflation levels for optimal performance.

This kit (CR5139HP) is specifically engineered for Ford Everest Next-Gen P704 models from 2022 to 2024, fitting both 4x4 and 4x2 variants with factory coil spring rear suspension. It's designed to work with the Next-Gen platform's updated chassis and suspension geometry. If you have a previous generation Everest (PXIII or earlier), you'll need a different kit designed for that platform. Our team can confirm exact fitment based on your VIN number if you're unsure of your specific model generation.
While air bags don't technically increase your vehicle's legal GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass), they restore your suspension's ability to support loads up to the manufacturer's rated capacity without sagging. This high-pressure kit can support several hundred kilograms of additional rear load, effectively preventing the suspension compression that occurs when you load up with camping gear, tow a caravan, or carry trade equipment. The adjustable pressure range lets you fine-tune support from light loads (10-15 PSI) to maximum capacity (40-50 PSI). Always ensure your total vehicle weight stays within Ford's specified GVM limits regardless of air bag pressure.
This Easy Fit Kit includes everything needed for installation: two high-pressure air bags designed for coil spring applications, vehicle-specific mounting brackets and hardware, UV-resistant nylon air line tubing, all necessary fittings and connectors, easily accessible Schrader-type inflation valves, and comprehensive fitting instructions with QR code access to online guides. The only item not included is an air compressor for inflation - you can use any service station air hose, a portable 12V compressor, or even a bicycle pump in an emergency. All fasteners, clips, and mounting hardware are included so you won't need to source additional parts.
Absolutely - this high-pressure air helper kit is specifically designed for towing applications and is ideal for caravan, camper trailer, and boat trailer use. By inflating the air bags to match your tow ball download (typically 200-350kg for caravans), you maintain a level vehicle stance, prevent rear sag, reduce body roll in corners, and keep your headlights properly aimed. This dramatically improves towing stability, steering response, and overall safety, especially on long highway runs or corrugated outback tracks. Many experienced tourers consider air bags essential equipment for extended caravan touring across Australia.
No, air helper bags are designed to work with your existing factory suspension components including coil springs, shock absorbers, and control arms - no other upgrades are mandatory. However, many Everest owners choose to upgrade shock absorbers for improved ride quality and control, especially when carrying heavy loads or towing regularly. If you're planning significant suspension modifications like a lift kit, you may want to consider upgraded control arms at the same time. The beauty of air bags is they're a standalone upgrade that enhances your existing suspension rather than replacing it, so you can add them now and consider other upgrades later.
No, wheel alignment is not required after installing air helper bags, as they don't alter your vehicle's suspension geometry or ride height in the way that lift kits or heavy-duty springs do. Air bags mount between the chassis and axle to provide additional support, but don't change control arm angles or camber settings. That said, if your vehicle hasn't had an alignment check recently, or if you're experiencing uneven tyre wear, it's always good practice to have your alignment inspected. If you're installing air bags alongside other suspension modifications like lift kits or control arms, then alignment becomes essential.
One of the major advantages of this air bag system is infinite adjustability - you can change the air pressure anytime to match your current load. When driving unloaded or with light cargo, deflate to 5-10 PSI for comfortable ride quality that's close to factory. When you load up for a touring trip, inflate to 20-30 PSI. When towing your caravan, inflate to 35-50 PSI for maximum support. The Schrader-type valves are easily accessible, so you can adjust pressure at any service station or using a portable compressor in just a few minutes. This flexibility makes air bags far more versatile than fixed-rate upgraded springs.
This air bag helper kit is designed for load support and levelling rather than providing suspension lift for larger tyres. While inflating the air bags to high pressure will raise the rear of your vehicle slightly (typically 20-30mm), this creates an unlevel stance and isn't the intended purpose. If you want to fit larger tyres to your Everest Next-Gen, you'll need a proper suspension lift kit that raises both front and rear suspension together, maintaining proper geometry and providing clearance for bigger rubber. Air bags are perfect for complementing a lift kit by providing adjustable load support once you've already installed larger tyres and added weight with accessories.
AIRBAG MAN products are backed by the manufacturer's comprehensive warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. With over 25 years in the Australian market, AIRBAG MAN stands behind their products with confidence. Warranty terms apply when the kit is installed according to the provided instructions and used within the specified pressure and load limits. The air bags themselves are constructed from heavy-duty reinforced rubber designed for long service life under harsh Australian conditions. Keep your proof of purchase and installation records, and contact us immediately if you experience any issues - we'll work with AIRBAG MAN to resolve warranty claims quickly.
Yes, this kit is perfectly suitable for daily driving - in fact, that's one of its major benefits. When you're not carrying heavy loads or towing, simply deflate the air bags to low pressure (5-10 PSI) and your Everest will ride almost exactly like factory specification for comfortable commuting and around-town driving. When the weekend arrives and you load up for a camping trip or hook up the caravan, inflate to the required pressure for load support. This adjustability means you don't have to compromise daily ride comfort for occasional load-carrying capability the way you might with heavy-duty fixed-rate springs. It's the best of both worlds for vehicles that do dual duty as family transport and touring rigs.
Perfect for Our Loaded Family Camping Trips
These airbag helpers have been a game-changer for our monthly camping runs down to the coast. The Everest was sagging pretty badly with the roof tent, fridge and all the kids' gear, but now it sits level and handles so much better on the highway. Installation was straightforward enough for a weekend job, and the ride quality is noticeably smoother even when we're loaded to the gills. Well worth the investment for anyone who regularly loads up their rig.(5)
Perfect for Family Camping Trips Down South
Fitted these airbag helpers to our Everest before our last trip to Wilson's Prom and what a difference they made with the camper trailer and all the kids' gear loaded up. The rear end sat level the whole way and handling was noticeably better on the winding roads. Really impressed with how easy they were to adjust for different loads, and the ride quality is still comfortable when we're just running around town empty.(5)
Perfect for Loading Up the Work Ute
Been running this airbag helper kit on my Everest for about three months now and it's been brilliant for hauling tools and materials to job sites. The difference when fully loaded is night and day - no more sagging rear end when I've got a tonne of gear in the back. Installation was straightforward enough and the ride quality stays comfortable even when I'm running empty, which was my main concern before buying.(5)
Perfect for our loaded Everest camping trips
Finally sorted the rear sag when we load up the Everest with camping gear, water tanks and the kids' bikes for our monthly trips down the coast. The Airbag Man helper kit made a massive difference to how level the car sits, and the ride quality is actually better now even when we're running empty. Installation was straightforward enough, and being able to adjust the pressure for different loads is brilliant.(5)
