Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for optimal ride quality and component longevity. Choose your spring rate based on constant accessory load only — this means permanent accessories fitted to your vehicle, not occasional loads or towing equipment. Common front accessories include bull bars (25-40kg), winches (30-50kg), steel replacement bumpers, driving lights, UHF aerials, and roof racks with permanent loads. Occasional loads such as camping gear, passengers, or towing do not constitute constant load. Selecting springs that are too heavy for your actual constant load will result in a harsh ride and may cause premature wear to other suspension components.
This kit requires professional installation or experienced DIY fitting with appropriate spring compressor tools and safety equipment. Pre-assembled struts significantly simplify the installation process compared to separate shock and spring kits. A professional wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to ensure correct steering geometry, prevent premature tyre wear, and maintain vehicle stability. Allow a 500km break-in period for springs to settle and suspension components to bed in — you may notice spring rates softening slightly during this period. For maximum performance and safety, consider upgrading to heavy-duty control arms which correct ball joint angles and improve suspension geometry at lifted ride heights.
Dobinsons Spring & Suspension has been manufacturing premium 4WD suspension in Australia for over 60 years, with in-house engineering teams designing and testing every component to withstand the harshest conditions across Australian terrain. Every Dobinsons shock absorber undergoes dyno testing to verify valve forces, durability testing exceeding millions of cycles at temperatures over 100°C, and real-world vehicle testing across corrugations, sand, rock, and extreme loads. Trusted by serious tourers, tradespeople, and off-road enthusiasts nationwide, the full Dobinsons suspension range is backed by comprehensive warranty and decades of proven Australian performance.
This 50mm front lift kit suits Ford Everest Next-Gen owners who have added front accessories like bull bars and winches, need clearance for larger all-terrain tyres, or want improved off-road capability without sacrificing highway comfort. Perfect for weekend tourers, families heading remote, and tradies carrying equipment daily. If you're planning to carry heavy rear loads or tow caravans regularly, consider pairing this front kit with airbag suspension at the rear for adjustable load support and level vehicle stance under all conditions.

Yes, this Dobinsons 50mm front lift kit is specifically engineered for Ford Everest Next-Gen models from 2022 onwards. It's a direct bolt-in OE replacement design that fits all Next-Gen Everest variants regardless of engine option. The pre-assembled strut design ensures correct fitment without modification. If you have an earlier Everest model (PXIII, PXII, or PX), you'll need a different kit — please check our parts finder or contact our team to confirm the correct kit for your exact model year and series.
This kit provides 50mm (approximately 2 inches) of front lift for your Ford Everest Next-Gen. This is a front-only kit designed to level your vehicle or work in combination with a rear lift kit to achieve an overall vehicle lift. The 50mm front lift accommodates bull bars, winches, and other front accessories while providing clearance for larger tyres up to 32 inches. For a complete vehicle lift, you'll need to pair this with an appropriate rear lift kit matched to your rear load requirements and desired overall stance.
This complete front lift kit includes 2 x Dobinsons Nitro Gas front shock absorbers that come pre-assembled with Dobinsons coil springs, plus 2 x heavy-duty reinforced strut top mounts. The pre-assembled design means the springs are already fitted to the shocks at the factory, significantly reducing installation time and eliminating the need for dangerous spring compression during fitting. This is a front-only kit — rear suspension components including rear shocks and springs are sold separately and should be selected based on your rear accessory load and towing requirements.
This front lift kit is designed to handle the additional front weight from bull bars, winches, and other front accessories, and the upgraded shock absorbers provide improved front-end control while towing. However, towing primarily affects rear suspension, so you'll need an appropriate rear suspension upgrade to properly support towing loads. For frequent towing of caravans or heavy trailers, we recommend pairing this front kit with upgraded rear shocks and either heavy-duty rear springs or airbag suspension for the rear. Contact our team to discuss a complete front and rear suspension package matched to your specific towing needs.
At 50mm of lift, upgraded control arms are not strictly mandatory but are highly recommended for optimal suspension geometry and performance. The factory control arms will still function, but aftermarket heavy-duty control arms correct ball joint angles at the new ride height, improve steering response, reduce tyre wear, and provide additional strength for off-road use. If you're planning serious off-road touring or want the best possible handling and component longevity, upgrading to heavy-duty control arms is a worthwhile investment. Our suspension specialists can advise on the best control arm options for your specific Everest setup and intended use.
Yes, a professional wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any lift kit. Changing your vehicle's ride height alters suspension geometry and steering angles, which affects toe, camber, and caster settings. Without proper alignment, you'll experience uneven tyre wear, poor steering response, vehicle pull to one side, and potentially unsafe handling characteristics. Take your Everest to a reputable alignment shop that has experience with 4WDs and lifted vehicles. Mention that you've installed a 50mm front lift kit so they can adjust all angles correctly and ensure your vehicle tracks straight and handles predictably both on and off-road.
Yes, Dobinsons offers this kit with different front spring rates to match your specific constant accessory load. When ordering, you must select the spring rate based only on permanent accessories fitted to your vehicle — such as bull bars, winches, steel bumpers, and roof racks with constant loads. Do not select spring rates based on occasional loads like camping gear or towing, as this will result in overly stiff springs and a harsh ride. If you're unsure which spring rate to choose, contact our team with a list of your front accessories and their approximate weights, and we'll recommend the correct spring rate for optimal ride comfort and load support.
The 50mm front lift (when paired with an appropriate rear lift for level stance) typically allows you to fit tyres up to 32 inches in diameter on your Ford Everest Next-Gen without major rubbing issues. However, final tyre clearance depends on several factors including tyre width, wheel offset, suspension compression under load, and steering lock angle. Some minor trimming of plastic guards may be required for larger tyres at full lock or during suspension compression. For the best tyre and wheel combination advice specific to your Everest setup, contact our team who can recommend appropriate sizes based on your lift height, wheel choice, and intended use.
This Dobinsons Nitro Gas front lift kit is backed by Dobinsons' comprehensive manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.

Absolutely — this Dobinsons kit is engineered to provide excellent ride quality for daily driving while also delivering superior off-road capability when needed. The twin-tube Nitro Gas shock absorbers feature vehicle-specific valving tuned for Ford Everest Next-Gen, providing balanced damping that's comfortable on highways and city streets while still controlling the vehicle under load and across rough terrain. Many Everest owners use this kit as their everyday suspension for the improved stance, tyre clearance, and ability to handle both the school run and weekend touring adventures. The quality components and proper spring rate selection ensure you won't sacrifice daily comfort for off-road performance.
Perfect Lift for Our Next-Gen Everest
Finally got the Dobinsons 50mm lift kit fitted to our new Everest and couldn't be happier with the results. Took the family up to the High Country last month and the ride quality was noticeably better than stock, especially when loaded up with camping gear and the roof tent. The fitment was spot-on and our local mechanic had no dramas with the install. Well worth the investment for anyone doing regular touring with the family.(5)
