Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for achieving optimal ride quality, load capacity, and component longevity. Your spring rate choice should be based on your constant accessory load only — the weight permanently installed on your vehicle that's present for every journey, not occasional loads or towing weight.
Common Front Constant Loads: Steel bullbar, winch, driving lights, upgraded intercooler, long-range fuel tank (if front-mounted), aftermarket air conditioning, dual battery system (if engine bay mounted).
Common Rear Constant Loads: Aluminium or steel canopy, drawer systems, dual battery systems, long-range fuel tanks, upgraded exhaust systems, dual spare wheel carriers, permanently mounted recovery equipment, trade toolboxes.
Important: Do not overestimate your load requirements. Selecting springs that are too heavy for your actual constant load will result in harsh ride quality, reduced articulation, premature wear on bushings and shock absorbers, and an uncomfortably stiff daily driving experience. Occasional loads like camping gear, passengers, or towing are not considered constant loads and should not influence your spring rate selection.
Professional installation by a qualified suspension specialist or experienced 4WD mechanic is strongly recommended to ensure correct fitment, torque specifications, and initial setup. A full four-wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to restore factory steering geometry, prevent uneven tyre wear, and maintain safe handling characteristics. The adjustable front shock absorbers should be set to the mid-range adjustment position initially, then fine-tuned after the 500km break-in period based on your loaded driving conditions.
Allow a 500km settling period for springs to fully compress to their working height and for all components to bed in properly. During this break-in phase, avoid extreme off-road driving and heavy loads. After settling, ride height and shock absorber settings can be reassessed and adjusted as needed. For vehicles with significant lift or modified suspension geometry, consider pairing this kit with upgraded control arms to restore optimal camber angles and maximise component life.

Yes, this kit is specifically engineered for Mitsubishi Triton MQ (2015-2018) and MR (2019-2024) series models across all cab configurations including single cab, club cab, and dual cab variants. The kit includes all necessary components for a complete front and rear suspension upgrade with no modifications required. If you're unsure about your specific vehicle variant or have aftermarket modifications already installed, our suspension experts can verify fitment compatibility before you order.
This Dobinsons lift kit typically provides 35-50mm of lift at the front and 40-50mm at the rear, depending on your selected spring rates and constant accessory load. Actual lift height achieved will vary based on the weight of permanently installed accessories like bullbars, canopies, toolboxes, and winches. Vehicles with heavier constant loads will sit slightly lower than lightly accessorised vehicles, which is why selecting the correct spring rate for your specific setup is crucial for achieving optimal ride height and performance.
This comprehensive kit includes everything needed for a complete front and rear suspension upgrade: 2 x Dobinsons monotube adjustable front shock absorbers, 2 x front coil springs in your selected rate, 2 x monotube rear shock absorbers, 2 x raised rear leaf springs in your selected rate, 4 x U-bolts for leaf spring mounting, and 1 x complete polyurethane leaf spring bush kit. All mounting hardware and installation instructions are provided. The only additional items you may need are wheel alignment services and potentially upgraded control arms if lifting significantly beyond factory height.
Absolutely — this kit is excellent for towing applications thanks to the adjustable front shock absorbers and enhanced rear spring rates that reduce squat and maintain level ride height under load. The adjustable damping allows you to firm up the front suspension when towing to compensate for tongue weight and maintain optimal steering geometry. The upgraded rear leaf springs provide significantly improved load capacity compared to factory springs, reducing sag and improving stability when towing heavy caravans or trailers. Many Triton owners who regularly tow also pair this kit with airbag suspension for even greater load control and adjustability.
Control arm upgrades are not mandatory for the lift height provided by this kit, but they are recommended for optimal suspension geometry, component longevity, and improved off-road performance. Upgraded control arms restore correct camber angles after lifting, reduce stress on ball joints and bushings, and provide increased wheel travel for better articulation on challenging terrain. If you're planning aggressive off-road use, frequently carry heavy loads, or want to maximise the capability of your lifted Triton, adding upgraded control arms is a worthwhile investment that complements this lift kit perfectly.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing any suspension lift kit, including this Dobinsons system. Lifting your vehicle changes critical suspension geometry including camber, caster, and toe angles, which directly affects tyre wear, steering feel, and vehicle handling. A professional alignment ensures your Triton drives safely, handles predictably, and doesn't experience premature or uneven tyre wear. Most suspension installers include alignment in their fitting service, and skipping this step will void warranties and create unsafe driving conditions.
Select spring rates based exclusively on your constant accessory load — the permanent weight installed on your vehicle at all times, not occasional loads or towing weight. Calculate front constant load by weighing items like bullbars, winches, upgraded intercoolers, and driving lights. Calculate rear constant load including canopies, drawer systems, dual batteries, long-range tanks, and permanent toolboxes. Do not overestimate — selecting springs that are too heavy for your actual load results in harsh ride quality and reduced component life. If you're between weight categories, choose the lighter spring rate for better daily comfort. Our team can help you calculate your specific loads and recommend appropriate spring rates.
This lift kit typically allows fitment of 31-32 inch tyres (approximately 265/70R17 to 285/70R17) with minimal to no trimming required, depending on your wheel offset and specific tyre brand. More aggressive tyre sizes may require minor trimming of plastic liner tabs or mud flaps, particularly during full suspension compression and steering lock. Actual tyre clearance depends on several factors including wheel offset, backspacing, and suspension travel under load. We recommend test-fitting your intended tyre and wheel combination after installation and checking clearance at full lock and full compression before committing to your final setup.
Dobinsons provides comprehensive manufacturer warranty coverage on all components in this kit, with shock absorbers typically covered for 12 months or 20,000km (whichever occurs first) and springs covered against manufacturing defects and breakage. Warranty coverage requires professional installation, proper spring rate selection for your vehicle's actual load, and adherence to recommended service intervals including the mandatory 500km check and retorque. Warranty claims are processed through 4WD Suspension Australia with full local support, and Dobinsons has an excellent reputation for standing behind their products throughout Australia's 4WD community.
Yes, this Dobinsons kit is specifically engineered to deliver excellent daily driving comfort while providing enhanced off-road capability when needed. The adjustable front shock absorbers allow you to dial in your preferred ride quality — softer settings for unladen highway cruising and daily commuting, firmer settings when loaded or tackling challenging terrain. The monotube shock design provides consistent, fade-free damping that feels composed and controlled on sealed roads while absorbing corrugations and rough tracks with confidence. When matched to appropriate spring rates for your constant load, this kit maintains a comfortable, compliant ride that's suitable for everything from city commuting to remote touring adventures.
Perfect Upgrade for Our Family Camping Rig
Finally got around to fitting this Dobinsons lift kit to our MQ Triton and couldn't be happier with the results. The adjustable monotube shocks handle corrugated dirt roads so much better than stock, and the kids in the back aren't complaining about being bounced around anymore. We've done a couple of trips down to the High Country since installation and the ride quality loaded up with camping gear is genuinely impressive. Well worth the investment for anyone doing regular touring.(5)
Perfect Setup for Work and Weekend Trips
Had this Dobinsons lift kit fitted to my MQ Triton about six months ago and it's been brilliant for daily work duties and the occasional beach run down the coast. The adjustable shocks make a huge difference when I'm loaded up with tools and materials during the week - rides much better than the factory setup ever did. Mate who fitted them reckoned the quality was top notch and everything bolted up perfectly without dramas.(5)
Solid Kit for Serious Outback Work
Been running this Dobinsons monotube kit on my MR for about 8 months now, covering everything from the Canning Stock Route to Cape York's rougher sections. The adjustability is genuinely useful when switching between loaded touring and day-to-day driving, and the damping stays consistent even in 40+ degree heat. Build quality is proper Australian-spec, which matters when you're 500km from the nearest workshop.(5)
Perfect Upgrade for Our Family Tourer
After fitting this Dobinsons adjustable lift kit to our MR Triton, the difference on corrugated dirt roads has been night and day. We've done three camping trips up through the High Country since installation and the ride quality is significantly better, especially when loaded up with all the family gear and water. The adjustability means I could fine-tune it perfectly for our typical setup. Well worth the investment for anyone doing regular touring with the family.(5)
Best upgrade I've done to the Triton
Been running this Dobinsons lift kit on my MQ for about 6 months now, daily drive to sites and weekend trips down the coast. The adjustable shocks are brilliant - dialled them in for when I'm loaded up with tools and gear during the week, and the ride quality is leagues better than the factory setup. Fitment was spot on and they've handled some pretty rough tracks without any dramas.(5)
