These shocks are designed to work with your existing rear spring rate, so if you're carrying a canopy, tray, water tank or towing regularly, match your rear coil springs to that constant load before fitting new shocks. Common accessories that add constant rear load on an Everest include dual battery setups, water tanks, drawer systems, bull bars and caravan tow ball weight. Getting the spring rate right first means the shock only has to manage movement, not carry static load it wasn't designed for.
Fitment is a direct bolt-on job using factory mounting points, and while an experienced DIY installer with the right tools can complete it, we recommend a qualified suspension fitter for correct torque and bush seating. A wheel alignment is mandatory after any suspension component change, including a shock absorber swap, to keep tyre wear even. Allow a 500km bed-in period for new bushes to settle before final alignment checks. If you're upgrading further, consider pairing this with upgraded control arms to correct rear geometry at a raised height.
Bilstein has built monotube gas-pressure shocks for decades and supplies OE fitment to several 4WD and SUV manufacturers, which is a good indicator of build consistency. Every pair sold through us comes from Australian stock with a full manufacturer warranty and fitment guidance from our in-house team. You can view the full Bilstein range if you're also considering front shocks or a matched set for your Everest.
This pair suits Everest owners who tow a caravan or trailer regularly, tradespeople running a tray back with tools and equipment, and weekend tourers who want steadier rear-end control on dirt roads. If you're carrying constant heavy loads rather than towing, it's also worth looking at airbag suspension to support the rear coils under sustained weight.
This Bilstein rear pair is in stock in Australia and ready for fast dispatch, with our team on hand to confirm fitment for your Everest build. Browse our full lift kit range if you're planning a complete suspension upgrade rather than a shock-only replacement.

Yes, this Bilstein rear shock pair (SKU WC1460) is a direct-fit application for the Ford Everest UA and UA II built from 2015 onward, covering both the 2.2L and 3.2L Duratorq diesel variants. It bolts onto factory mounting points with no drilling or modification. If you're unsure about your build date or trim, our team can confirm fitment before you order.
This is a shock absorber pair, not a lift kit, so it does not raise ride height on its own. It's designed to suit vehicles at factory ride height or those already fitted with up to a 2" rear lift. If you want to raise the rear as well, pair it with raised rear coil springs or a full lift kit.
You get two Bilstein rear shock absorbers — one for each side — built with monotube gas-pressure technology and factory-style mounting bushes. Rear coil springs, control arms and U-bolts are not included, as this listing is shocks only. Everything needed to bolt the shocks onto the factory mounting points is fitted to the units.
Yes, monotube gas-pressure shocks are well suited to towing because the gas and oil separation reduces foaming and fade when the rear end is working harder under a tow ball load. They improve rebound and compression control so the rear doesn't float or wallow behind a van or trailer. For heavier constant loads, check your rear spring rate is matched to the accessory weight you're carrying.
Not for a shock-only fitment at factory ride height — the rear shocks bolt straight onto existing mounting points. If you later raise the vehicle with a lift kit, upgrading the rear control arms can help correct axle geometry and driveline angles at the new height. Our team can advise whether that applies to your specific setup.
Yes, a wheel alignment is recommended any time a suspension component is replaced, including a shock absorber swap. While shocks don't directly change alignment angles the way springs do, checking the alignment confirms bushes have seated correctly and rules out any pre-existing wear. We suggest booking this in after the 500km bed-in period.
This shock pair doesn't include springs, so spring rate selection is handled separately through our rear coil spring range. Choose a spring rate based on your constant accessory load — canopy, tray, water tank, drawers or tow ball weight all factor into that decision. Our team can help match spring rate to your specific Everest build.
Since this is a shock-only fitment at standard ride height, tyre clearance won't change unless you're also fitting raised springs or a lift kit. If you're planning larger tyres, let us know your target size and we'll confirm what lift height and spring combination is needed alongside these shocks.
This Bilstein rear shock pair carries the manufacturer's standard warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. It's supplied from Australian stock, so any warranty claim is handled locally through our team rather than an overseas process. Keep your purchase receipt as proof of fitment date for any future claim.
Yes, these shocks are designed to balance on-road comfort with off-road control, so they work well as a daily driver upgrade as well as for weekend touring or towing. Monotube gas-pressure valving is tuned to avoid the harsh, jarring ride associated with over-firm aftermarket shocks. Most Everest owners fit these to improve everyday ride quality while also gaining better control when loaded or towing.
