The Bilstein 2" Lift Kit for the Ford Everest UA1-UA2 (2015-ON) combines Bilstein monotube gas shock absorbers with King Springs coil springs to deliver a genuine 2" lift front and rear. This lift kit opens up clearance for larger tyres and sharper approach and departure angles without turning the Everest into a harsh daily drive. Monotube construction keeps oil and gas in separate chambers for consistent damping under sustained load, and King Springs are offered in standard or heavy-duty rates to suit bull bars, winches and canopies. Dispatched from Australian stock, backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty and fitment support from our team.

Choose your spring rate based on the constant accessory weight sitting on the vehicle, not just occasional cargo. Front rates should account for a bull bar, winch and driving lights; rear rates should account for a canopy, dual battery tray, water tank or drawer system. If you're unsure which rate suits your setup, our team can match a spring rate to your accessory list before you order.
Fitment should be carried out by an experienced 4WD suspension installer or a competent DIY mechanic with the correct tools. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting to bring camber, caster and toe back within spec at the new ride height. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for the springs and shocks to settle before fine-tuning tyre pressures or accessory loads. Many owners pair this kit with upgraded control arms to correct geometry and extend CV joint and bearing life.
Bilstein has manufactured monotube gas shock absorbers for decades and supplies OE and aftermarket suspension to manufacturers and 4WD owners worldwide. This kit is tuned for the Everest's factory geometry and pairs Bilstein's damping technology with King Springs coil springs made for Australian loads and roads. Backed by a manufacturer warranty and trusted by tourers and tradespeople alike, you can view the full Bilstein range to compare options for other vehicles.
This kit suits Everest owners who tour with a loaded roof rack and drawer system, tradespeople carrying tools and equipment daily, and families who tow a box trailer or small camper. If your accessory load is heavier and more constant, such as a slide-on canopy or long-range fuel tank, it's worth comparing this coil spring setup against airbag suspension for load-levelling assistance.

This Bilstein 2" Lift Kit is built for the Ford Everest UA1 and UA2 platform from 2015-ON, covering both 2.2L, 3.2L diesel and the later 2.0L Bi-Turbo variants. It's designed around the factory coil-over-shock front and coil-sprung rear setup used across these model years. If you're unsure of your exact build date or engine variant, check your compliance plate or use our parts finder for the Everest. Our team can confirm fitment against your VIN before you order.
This kit delivers a 2" lift at both the front and rear of the Everest, using Bilstein monotube shocks matched to 2" raised King Springs coil springs. The lift is measured at the industry-standard ride height increase, not a raw spring length figure. This is enough to clear larger tyres and improve departure angle without pushing the vehicle outside its factory geometry limits. Front and rear heights are matched so the Everest sits level once loaded with typical touring gear.
Please note that all assembled struts are dispatched at a height based on our experience and the manufacturer’s specifications for the advertised lift. Coil springs and leaf springs are also manufactured according to the advertised height and constant-load rating. Actual vehicle height may vary depending on the vehicle and the weight of fitted accessories. Further adjustment may therefore be required after installation. The installer may use coil spacers or adjust the struts at their discretion to achieve the desired height. We are not responsible for vehicle-specific height variations or any additional adjustments required after installation.
The kit includes 2 x Bilstein monotube front shock absorbers, 2 x Bilstein monotube rear shock absorbers, and matching King Springs coil springs front and rear at a 2" raised height. Mounting hardware and bushes needed for the shock and spring installation are included. Upper and lower control arms are not part of this kit and are sold separately if your setup needs them. Full fitment instructions and torque specifications are supplied with the kit.
Yes, this kit is a suitable base for Everest owners who tow a box trailer or small camper, provided the coil spring rate is matched to the actual tow ball and accessory load. King Springs are available in standard and heavy-duty rates, so select the rate that reflects your typical loaded weight rather than your unloaded vehicle weight. If your towing setup carries a constant heavy load, ask our team whether a heavier rear spring rate or airbag suspension assistance suits you better. Getting the spring rate right protects ride height and handling while towing.
Control arms aren't included in this kit, but many Everest owners fitting a 2" lift also upgrade their control arms to restore correct front-end geometry. Aftermarket control arms with adjustable length help bring camber and caster closer to factory specification at the raised ride height. Whether you need them depends on how the vehicle measures up on the alignment rack after fitting. Our fitment team can advise based on your specific Everest and intended use.
Yes, a wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this lift kit. Changing ride height alters camber, caster and toe, and running the vehicle without a post-fit alignment leads to uneven tyre wear and can affect steering feel. We recommend booking the alignment immediately after installation, before extended driving. This is a standard step with any 4WD suspension lift, not specific to this kit alone.
Yes, King Springs coil springs in this kit are available in different rates to suit light, medium or heavy constant accessory loads. Selecting the right rate depends on what's permanently fitted to your Everest, such as a bull bar and winch up front or a canopy and dual battery setup at the rear. Our team can help match a spring rate to your accessory list so the vehicle sits level and rides properly loaded, not just unloaded in the driveway. Getting this right avoids a kit that sags under real-world use or rides too firm when empty.
The 2" lift from this kit typically creates enough clearance for a modest tyre size increase over factory, commonly up to a 33-inch tyre depending on wheel offset and width. Actual clearance depends on your wheel diameter, offset and whether any bar work is fitted. We recommend confirming your intended tyre and wheel combination with our team before ordering to avoid rubbing on guards or upper control arms. Fender trimming or upper control arm changes are sometimes needed at the upper end of that range.
This kit is backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty on the shock absorbers, covering manufacturing defects under normal use. King Springs coil springs are also covered under their standard manufacturer warranty terms. Warranty claims are handled through our team as the Australian supplier, so you're not dealing with an overseas distributor directly. Keep your proof of purchase and installation date on file in case a claim is needed.
Yes, this kit is tuned to keep the Everest comfortable for daily and highway driving, not just off-road use. Bilstein's monotube shock tune is matched to the King Springs coil rate you select, so a correctly chosen spring rate rides properly whether the vehicle is empty or loaded with typical touring gear. Owners commuting daily and touring on weekends commonly run this kit without needing a stiffer aftermarket-only setup. Choosing the spring rate that matches your actual constant load is what keeps the daily ride comfortable.
