The Bilstein Lift Kit for the Mitsubishi Triton MQ-MR (2015-on) pairs Bilstein B6 Offroad monotube shock absorbers with King Springs coil springs and heavy-duty leaf springs to deliver a 1.5" lift front and rear. This combination adds clearance for touring tracks and rougher roads while keeping the Triton settled under a bull bar, winch or canopy. Every component carries manufacturer warranty and ships from Australian stock, and our team can confirm fitment for your Triton before you order.

Choosing the right spring rate comes down to what you're carrying day to day, not just what fits in the tray occasionally. Front accessories like a steel bull bar, winch and driving lights add constant weight over the front axle, while rear accessories such as a canopy, dual battery tray, water tank or full-time caravan hitch load up the rear leaf springs. Tell our team your typical accessory and touring load and we'll help match the coil and leaf spring rate before you order.
This kit is best fitted by an experienced 4WD workshop or a competent DIY installer with a hoist and spring compressor, given the leaf spring and shock swap involved. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting to bring caster, camber and toe back within specification at the new 1.5" ride height. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for the leaf springs and shocks to settle before fine-tuning alignment or tyre pressures. If you're running larger tyres or a heavier front bar, pair this kit with upgraded control arm upgrades to restore correct front geometry.
Bilstein has built monotube shock absorbers for road and off-road applications for decades, and the B6 Offroad range is calibrated specifically for lifted 4WDs carrying touring and trade loads. Each kit is backed by manufacturer warranty and supplied through 4WD Suspension's Australian stock, so you're not waiting on overseas freight for a warranty claim. Tourers and tradespeople running Tritons daily choose Bilstein for the shock's ability to hold damping performance under repeated heat cycling on gravel and corrugations — view the full Bilstein range for other applications.
This kit suits Triton MQ-MR owners running a bull bar, winch, canopy or camper trailer who need the ride height and spring rate to match that load. It's also a fit for tradies carrying tool boxes and equipment daily, and tourers doing regular corrugated or unsealed touring routes. If your load varies significantly — for example an empty tray most days and a full canopy on trips — ask us about pairing this kit with airbag suspension for adjustable extra support.
This Bilstein Triton MQ-MR kit is in stock in Australia and dispatched from local warehouses, with our team available to confirm fitment and spring rate before you buy. Browse our full lift kit range or get in touch if you need help matching this kit to your accessories and towing setup.

Yes, this kit is built specifically for the Mitsubishi Triton MQ-MR, covering the MQ series (2015-2018) and MR series (2019-on) fitted with the 2.4L 4N15 turbo diesel engine. It uses vehicle-specific Bilstein B6 Offroad shocks, King Springs coils and heavy-duty leaf springs matched to this chassis. If you're unsure of your exact series or build date, our team can confirm fitment before you order using your rego or VIN details.
This kit delivers a 1.5" lift front and rear on the Triton MQ-MR. The lift comes from the combination of the King Springs coil springs at the front and the heavy-duty leaf spring pack at the rear, working together with the Bilstein B6 Offroad shocks. This is enough clearance for larger tyres and rougher tracks without pushing the vehicle into extreme geometry that requires major driveline changes.
Please note that all assembled struts are dispatched at a height based on our experience and the manufacturer’s specifications for the advertised lift. Coil springs and leaf springs are also manufactured according to the advertised height and constant-load rating. Actual vehicle height may vary depending on the vehicle and the weight of fitted accessories. Further adjustment may therefore be required after installation. The installer may use coil spacers or adjust the struts at their discretion to achieve the desired height. We are not responsible for vehicle-specific height variations or any additional adjustments required after installation.
The kit includes 2 x Bilstein B6 Offroad front shocks, 2 x Bilstein B6 Offroad rear shocks, 2 x King Springs front coil springs, 2 x heavy-duty rear leaf springs, plus U-bolts, centre bolts, spring bushes and front bump stop spacers. Fitting instructions are included. Upper and lower control arms are not part of this kit and are sold separately if you need them for corrected front geometry.
Yes, the heavy-duty rear leaf springs in this kit are designed to support constant rear loads such as a canopy, tool boxes or a loaded tow ball, which makes it suitable for regular towing work. The Bilstein B6 Offroad shocks are calibrated to control that additional spring load rather than just soften the ride. For heavier or variable towing loads, ask our team about matching leaf spring rates or adding airbag suspension as extra rear support.
Control arms aren't mandatory at a 1.5" lift on the Triton MQ-MR, since the lift height stays within a range the factory geometry can generally handle. However, upgraded control arms are worth considering if you're running larger tyres or want to fully correct caster and camber at ride height. Our team can advise whether your specific setup benefits from a control arm upgrade.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting this kit. The 1.5" change in ride height alters caster, camber and toe, and running the vehicle without realignment leads to uneven tyre wear and can affect steering feel. We recommend a 500km bedding-in period first, then a final alignment once the leaf springs and shocks have settled.
King Springs and the heavy-duty leaf springs in this kit are supplied to suit typical accessory loads like a bull bar, winch and canopy, but spring rate can be discussed with our team before you order. Tell us your front accessories (bull bar, winch, driving lights) and rear load (canopy, dual battery, water tank, tow ball weight) and we'll confirm the best matched spring rate for your Triton. This avoids under- or over-springing the vehicle for your actual use.
The 1.5" lift from this kit typically opens up clearance for a modest tyre size increase over standard on the Triton MQ-MR, depending on your current wheel offset and tray or tub fitment. Exact clearance depends on tyre width and rim offset, so check with our team on your specific tyre size before purchasing. Larger tyre and wheel combinations may also benefit from the control arm upgrades mentioned above.
This kit is covered by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty on the B6 Offroad shock absorbers, with King Springs' standard warranty applying to the coil and leaf springs. Warranty claims are handled through 4WD Suspension Australia, so you're dealing with a local team rather than an overseas supplier. Keep your invoice as proof of purchase for any warranty claim.
Yes, this kit is designed to retain the Triton's on-road ride quality at the raised 1.5" height, not just off-road performance. The Bilstein B6 Offroad monotube shocks are tuned to control body movement on sealed roads as well as corrugated tracks, so the vehicle remains comfortable for daily commuting, school runs and highway towing between trips.
