Tough Dog Mitsubishi Triton MQ/MR (2018+) Complete 40mm Suspension Lift Kit

The Tough Dog Mitsubishi Triton (2018+) 40mm Suspension Kit is engineered to transform the “raked” look and unbalanced factory ride of the MQ and MR series into a level, capable, and confidence-inspiring machine. Designed specifically for the Triton’s unique front-end geometry, this kit increases wheel travel, improves stability under heavy loads, and delivers the off-road performance the Triton’s platform is truly capable of.

Utilising 41mm Bore Foam Cell Shock technology, this system is built to survive the heat of the African bush — ensuring your suspension never “fades” on long, punishing corrugated dirt roads, whether you’re loaded or running empty.

🚗 Why Upgrade Your Triton MQ/MR?

The Mitsubishi Triton is known for its agility and compact capability — but the factory rear leaf springs are notoriously “skittish” when the tray is empty and prone to sagging under the weight of a canopy, tow ball load, or camping gear. The Tough Dog kit solves both extremes with progressive spring rates that smooth out the empty ride while delivering the heavy-duty support needed for your next adventure.

  • 40mm lift — corrects factory rake and adds meaningful ground clearance
  • Increased wheel travel — improved articulation for technical off-road terrain
  • Progressive rear spring rates — comfortable when empty, composed and stable when loaded
  • Foam Cell shock technology — fade-free performance in the heat of the African bush
  • Load-rated spring options — Comfort, 300kg, or 500kg Constant to match your canopy, tow, or touring setup
  • Optional 9-stage adjustable shocks — tune your ride for any terrain or load condition
  • Optional greasable shackles — extended service life for high-use and remote touring applications

Note: A Centre Bearing Spacer Kit may be required on some Triton models to prevent driveline vibration after lift. Contact us to confirm whether this applies to your specific vehicle configuration.
