Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for optimal ride quality and component longevity. Spring rates should be chosen based on your constant accessory load — the weight permanently fitted to your vehicle, not occasional cargo. Common front accessories include steel bullbars (30-60kg), winches (30-50kg), heavy-duty batteries, long-range fuel tanks, and upgraded steel bumpers. Rear constant loads include aluminium or steel canopies (70-150kg), drawer systems (50-100kg), dual spare wheel carriers (40-80kg), rear bars, and permanently mounted water tanks. Occasional loads such as camping gear, passengers, and towing are NOT considered constant load. Selecting a spring rate heavier than required will result in harsh ride quality and may cause premature wear to suspension components.
Professional installation by a qualified 4WD suspension specialist is strongly recommended to ensure correct fitment, torque specifications, and safety compliance. Experienced DIY installers with appropriate tools and workshop facilities may undertake installation following Bilstein's technical guidelines. A full four-wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to prevent premature tyre wear and ensure optimal handling characteristics. All springs require a 500km break-in period before settling to final ride height — some initial stiffness is normal during this period. For vehicles with significant front-end weight from heavy accessories, consider pairing this kit with upgraded control arms to optimize suspension geometry and maintain factory-like steering feel.
Bilstein has over 60 years of monotube shock absorber engineering excellence, with B6 Offroad series specifically developed for Australian 4WD conditions through extensive outback testing. The monotube design delivers superior heat dissipation and consistent damping compared to twin-tube alternatives, ensuring fade-free performance even during extended corrugated road sections. Bilstein's global OEM partnerships with premium automotive manufacturers demonstrate proven reliability and engineering quality trusted by Australian tourers, tradespeople and off-road enthusiasts. Explore the complete Bilstein suspension range for additional vehicle-specific applications and upgrade components.
This lift kit is engineered for Triton MQ-MR owners who demand reliable performance across diverse applications: grey nomads towing caravans around Australia, tradespeople carrying constant heavy loads, weekend off-roaders tackling Cape York or the Simpson Desert, and touring families needing increased payload capacity without sacrificing ride quality. If you regularly carry maximum loads or tow near GVM, consider supplementing this kit with airbag suspension for on-demand load support and the ability to level your vehicle when fully loaded or hitched to a caravan.

Yes, this kit is specifically engineered for all Mitsubishi Triton MQ (2015-2018) and MR (2019-2024) series vehicles regardless of trim level including GLX, GLS, GLX+, GLS Premium, Exceed, and GSR variants. The kit includes all necessary components for a complete bolt-on installation on both dual-cab and extra-cab configurations. If you've made significant modifications to your vehicle or are unsure about compatibility with aftermarket accessories already fitted, our technical team can verify fitment before you order. We maintain detailed fitment databases for all Australian-delivered Triton variants to ensure perfect compatibility.
This complete suspension kit delivers approximately 35mm (1.4 inches) of lift front and rear, measured at the wheel arch. This lift height is ideal for fitting tyres up to 265/70R17 or 265/65R18 without significant trimming, while improving approach and departure angles for off-road use. The actual lift height achieved may vary by 5-10mm depending on spring rate selection, constant accessory load, and whether your vehicle is unladen or carrying typical touring weight. All springs require a 500km settling period before final ride height is achieved, during which height may decrease slightly as components bed in.
This comprehensive kit includes everything needed for a complete front and rear suspension upgrade: 2 x Bilstein B6 Offroad front shock absorbers, 2 x King Springs front coil springs, 2 x Bilstein B6 Offroad rear shock absorbers, 2 x heavy-duty multi-leaf rear springs, 4 x heavy-duty U-bolts, 1 x polyurethane bush kit, and all necessary mounting hardware. You'll need to select appropriate spring rates for both front and rear during ordering based on your constant accessory load. Upper control arms, extended brake lines, and wheel alignment are not included but may be required depending on your vehicle's existing configuration and intended use.
Absolutely — this kit is engineered specifically for towing applications with upgraded leaf springs and B6 Offroad shocks that significantly reduce rear squat and sway when towing at or near your Triton's 3500kg towing capacity. The heavy-duty multi-leaf rear spring pack increases load capacity while the monotube shock design maintains consistent damping under the heat generated during extended towing. For maximum towing stability and the ability to level your vehicle when hitched, many customers pair this lift kit with supplementary airbag suspension which provides on-demand load support. Ensure you select the correct rear spring rate for your typical towing weight and constant rear accessories.
Control arm replacement is not mandatory for a 35mm lift on the Triton MQ-MR platform, as this moderate lift height keeps suspension geometry within acceptable tolerances. However, upgraded control arms can provide benefits including improved castor correction for better steering feel, reduced ball joint wear, and enhanced wheel travel for serious off-road use. If your Triton carries significant front-end weight from heavy bullbars and winches, or if you plan aggressive off-road driving, aftermarket upper control arms are recommended. Our suspension specialists can assess your specific setup and advise whether control arms would benefit your application during your build consultation.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any lift kit and is critical for vehicle safety, tyre longevity, and handling performance. The suspension modifications will alter your Triton's camber, castor, and toe settings beyond factory specifications, which will cause rapid and uneven tyre wear if not corrected. Have the alignment performed by a qualified technician familiar with 4WD suspension using a professional alignment rack that can accommodate lifted vehicles. Ensure alignment is performed after the vehicle has been driven 50-100km post-installation to allow components to settle, and re-check alignment after the 500km break-in period when springs reach their final settled height.
Spring rate selection must be based solely on your constant accessory load — the weight permanently fitted to your vehicle, not occasional cargo or passengers. For the front, add the weight of your bullbar, winch, upgraded batteries, driving lights, and any other permanently fitted accessories, then select the spring rate that matches this total weight range. For the rear, calculate the combined weight of your canopy or tub liner, drawer system, dual battery setup, water tanks, spare wheel carriers, and rear bar. Common mistake: do not factor in camping gear, tools, passengers, or towing weight as these are variable loads. When in doubt, it's better to select a lighter spring rate as oversized springs will result in harsh ride quality and potential component damage.
With 35mm of lift, most Triton MQ-MR owners can comfortably fit 265/70R17 tyres (approximately 31.6 inches diameter) or 265/65R18 tyres with minimal to no trimming of plastic wheel arch liners, depending on wheel offset. Some users have successfully fitted 275/70R17 tyres with minor trimming and aftermarket offset wheels, though this pushes the limits and may require additional work. Tyre fitment also depends on your wheel offset — more aggressive negative offset will increase scrubbing risk on full lock and compression. For larger tyre options, most installers recommend staying within 265 width to maintain clearance during full suspension articulation and steering lock without extensive modifications to body mounts or radius arm positions.
All Bilstein B6 Offroad shock absorbers in this kit are backed by Bilstein's comprehensive manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions. King Springs coil springs include the manufacturer's warranty against sagging and breakage when correctly rated for your application. Warranty coverage requires professional installation with correct torque specifications, appropriate spring rate selection for your actual constant load, and adherence to recommended service intervals. Warranty does not cover damage from incorrect installation, overloading beyond spring ratings, accident damage, or modifications. All warranty claims are assessed individually — retain your purchase receipt and installation records for warranty validation if required.
Yes, one of the key advantages of the Bilstein B6 Offroad series is maintaining excellent on-road comfort while dramatically improving off-road capability — unlike budget lift kits that compromise ride quality for lift height. The monotube design provides progressive damping that absorbs highway expansion joints and urban road imperfections smoothly, while King Springs' variable-rate coil technology delivers compliant ride quality when unladen. That said, ride firmness will depend heavily on spring rate selection — choosing springs correctly matched to your actual constant load ensures optimal comfort. Expect a slightly firmer feel than factory suspension (especially if upgrading from worn factory components), but this translates to superior control, reduced body roll, and vastly improved comfort over corrugated dirt roads and off-road terrain.
