Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for achieving optimal ride height, comfort, and safety. Dobinsons coil springs are available in multiple load ratings to accommodate your vehicle's constant accessory load — this is the combined weight of all permanently installed accessories and equipment you carry every day, not occasional loads.
Front constant loads include: Steel or alloy bullbar, winch, long-range fuel tank, upgraded battery systems, roof racks with awnings, steel bonnet, aftermarket intercoolers, and underbody protection plates. A typical touring front-end setup with bullbar and winch adds 80-150kg.
Rear constant loads include: Drawer systems, dual battery setups, rear bars, spare wheel carriers (especially dual spares), water tanks, fixed toolboxes, canopy or hard lids, and long-range fuel tanks. A well-equipped touring rear end can add 150-300kg depending on configuration.
Important: Occasional loads such as passengers, camping gear, towing weight, and trip-specific equipment should NOT be factored into your spring rate selection. Overspringing your vehicle leads to harsh ride quality, premature wear on suspension bushings and suspension components, and reduced traction on corrugated surfaces. If you regularly tow heavy caravans or trailers, consider supplementing your suspension with airbag suspension for variable load support without compromising unladen ride quality.
This Dobinsons Nitro Gas Lift Kit is designed as a direct OE-replacement system and can be installed by experienced DIY enthusiasts with appropriate tools and mechanical knowledge, though professional installation by a qualified 4WD workshop is recommended to ensure correct torque specifications and safety. Installation time is typically 3-4 hours for a professional workshop or 6-8 hours for an experienced home mechanic.
Wheel alignment is mandatory after installing any lift kit to ensure correct camber, caster, and toe settings, prevent premature tyre wear, and maintain safe steering response. A full four-wheel alignment should be performed once the vehicle has settled under its normal constant load. Allow a 500km break-in period for springs to settle and shocks to bed-in before final ride height assessment — it's normal for coil springs to settle 5-10mm during this initial period.
For vehicles with heavy front-end loads or aggressive lift heights, we recommend pairing this kit with upgraded control arms to correct suspension geometry, maintain optimal CV angles, and restore factory-like handling characteristics. Upper control arms with additional caster adjustment are particularly beneficial for Everest models running 40mm+ lift and large wheel/tyre packages.
Dobinsons Spring & Suspension has been manufacturing premium suspension components for over 60 years from their Australian head office, exporting to more than 40 countries worldwide while maintaining their focus on Australian conditions and requirements. Every Dobinsons shock absorber is designed, tested, and validated using in-house engineering resources including proprietary dyno testing machines, custom durability testers that simulate millions of cycles, and extensive real-world validation across Australia's harshest environments — from the corrugated Outback tracks to subzero alpine conditions.
Dobinsons products are manufactured to TS16949 International Quality Assurance Systems with advanced processes including double-reinforced robotic welding, friction welding, CNC machining, and drop-forging of high-stress mounting components. This commitment to quality and Australian-focused engineering has made Dobinsons the trusted choice of touring enthusiasts, trade professionals, and off-road adventurers who demand reliability when they're hundreds of kilometres from the nearest town. All Dobinsons products are backed by comprehensive manufacturer warranty and local Australian support.

This Dobinsons Nitro Gas Lift Kit is the ideal choice for Ford Everest Next-Gen owners who demand a balanced upgrade that improves both on-road comfort and off-road capability without compromising daily drivability. It's perfectly suited to weekend tourers exploring Australia's national parks, grey nomads covering thousands of kilometres on mixed terrain, trade professionals carrying constant equipment loads, and families who need reliable towing capability for caravans or camper trailers.
If you're running heavy constant loads in the rear (drawer systems, dual batteries, water tanks) or frequently tow at or near your vehicle's maximum capacity, consider supplementing this coil spring kit with airbag suspension for the rear axle. Air bags provide on-demand load support that can be adjusted for different towing and loading scenarios while maintaining optimal unladen ride quality — the perfect companion for serious touring rigs and caravan towers.
This kit is also an excellent foundation for those planning to upgrade to larger all-terrain tyres (up to 32-33" depending on wheel offset and trimming), as the improved suspension travel and load capacity provide the clearance and control needed for bigger rubber without compromising safety or handling.

Yes, this kit is specifically engineered for the Ford Everest Next-Generation platform (2022-current models, also known as PXIII series). It's designed as a direct OE-replacement system that bolts into factory mounting points without modification, fitting all Next-Gen Everest variants including Trend, Sport, Platinum, and Wildtrak trim levels. The kit accommodates all available engine options including the 2.0L and 3.0L diesel variants. If you have an earlier model Everest (UA/UAII from 2015-2021), please contact us as different part numbers are required for those platforms.
The lift height achieved with this Dobinsons Nitro Gas Lift Kit depends on your selected spring rate and current constant accessory load. Typically, this kit provides 25-40mm of front lift and 25-40mm of rear lift compared to worn factory suspension, though actual measurements vary based on the weight of your installed accessories and chosen spring rating. Vehicles with heavier constant loads (bullbar, winch, drawer systems) will sit slightly lower than unladen vehicles even with heavy-duty springs. Final ride height should be assessed after the 500km break-in period once springs have fully settled under your normal operating load.
This complete kit includes 2x Dobinsons Nitro Gas front shock absorbers (35mm bore, 60mm body), 2x Dobinsons front coil springs in your selected load rating, 2x Dobinsons Nitro Gas rear shock absorbers (32mm bore, 51mm body), and 2x Dobinsons rear coil springs in your selected load rating. All necessary mounting hardware, natural rubber bushings, and steel dust covers are included for a direct bolt-in installation. Please note that upper control arms, extended brake lines, diff drop kits, and other supplementary components are sold separately and may be required depending on your final lift height and vehicle configuration.
Absolutely. This Nitro Gas Lift Kit is an excellent choice for Ford Everest owners who regularly tow caravans, camper trailers, or box trailers, as the upgraded coil springs and vehicle-specific shock valving restore proper ride height under load and dramatically improve stability compared to worn factory suspension. The firmer damping controls body roll and pitch during braking and cornering with a trailer attached. For ultimate towing performance, especially if you frequently tow at or near your vehicle's maximum capacity (3,100-3,500kg depending on variant), consider supplementing this kit with rear airbags which provide on-demand load support that can be adjusted for different trailer weights without compromising unladen ride quality.
Control arm upgrades are not strictly required for this moderate lift kit on the Ford Everest Next-Gen, as the factory control arms can typically accommodate 25-40mm of lift without critical geometry issues. However, upper control arms with additional caster adjustment are highly recommended if you're running heavy front accessories (bullbar and winch), plan to fit larger tyres (32-33"), or want to optimise steering feel and handling after the lift. Upgraded upper control arms allow precise correction of caster angle which improves straight-line stability and on-centre steering response. They're particularly beneficial for vehicles that will spend significant time on highway speeds with the increased ride height.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any suspension lift kit, including this Dobinsons system. Changing your suspension height alters critical alignment angles including camber, caster, and toe settings, which directly affect tyre wear, steering response, and vehicle safety. We recommend having the alignment performed after the initial 500km break-in period once the coil springs have fully settled under your normal constant load. This ensures the alignment shop is working with your actual operating ride height rather than the initially higher position immediately after installation. Driving without proper alignment can cause rapid inside or outside edge tyre wear and compromised handling.
Yes, and in fact we strongly recommend selecting appropriate spring rates for both front and rear based on your specific constant accessory loads, as front and rear loads are typically quite different on a modified Everest. When ordering, you'll select front spring rates based on your front accessories (bullbar, winch, long-range tank) and rear spring rates based on your rear accessories (drawer systems, dual batteries, rear bar). It's critical to select rates based only on your permanent constant load, not occasional loads like passengers or camping gear. Selecting springs that are too heavy for your actual constant load results in harsh ride quality, reduced traction on corrugations, and premature wear on bushings and other suspension components.
With this Dobinsons Nitro Gas Lift Kit providing approximately 25-40mm of lift, you can typically fit 265/65R18 or 265/70R17 tyres (approximately 32" diameter) on the Ford Everest Next-Gen with standard offset wheels, though some minor trimming of plastic inner guards and mud flaps may be required at full lock and full compression. Fitment of 275 or wider tyres depends heavily on wheel offset, backspacing, and your willingness to perform additional trimming or body modifications. It's important to test-fit and check clearance at full steering lock and full suspension compression before committing to a tyre size. Running larger/heavier tyres also places additional stress on CV joints and may require recalibration of your speedometer and stability control systems.
This Dobinsons Nitro Gas Lift Kit is backed by Dobinsons' comprehensive manufacturer warranty, which covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions. Dobinsons has been manufacturing suspension components for over 60 years and stands behind their products with Australian-based warranty support and customer service. Warranty coverage requires that components are installed correctly according to manufacturer specifications, that the vehicle receives proper wheel alignment after installation, and that the suspension is not subjected to abuse or modified beyond recommended parameters. For specific warranty duration and terms, or to register your product after installation, please contact us or refer to the documentation included with your kit.
Yes, this Dobinsons Nitro Gas Lift Kit is specifically designed to deliver excellent on-road comfort and handling while also improving off-road capability — it's an ideal choice for Everest owners who primarily daily drive their vehicles but also enjoy weekend touring and beach driving. The twin-tube nitrogen gas shocks feature vehicle-specific valving that provides a firmer, more controlled ride than factory suspension without being harsh or uncomfortable for daily commuting. The balanced spring rates restore proper ride height without over-springing, maintaining good traction and compliance on sealed roads. Many Everest owners report improved high-speed stability, reduced body roll in corners, and better steering response after upgrading to this Dobinsons kit while still enjoying comfortable long-distance highway driving.
