The Dobinsons Nitro Gas Front Lift Kit fits the Mitsubishi Triton ML-MN (2006-2015) and delivers a 1.5" front lift using twin-tube nitrogen gas shocks with a 35mm bore piston, double-chromed hardened rods and NOK multi-lip seals. Pre-assembled heavy-duty coil springs raise front ride height and add load carrying ability without altering factory geometry beyond a standard alignment reset. Pair it with upgraded control arms to correct caster and CV angles at the new ride height. Dispatched from Australian stock with manufacturer warranty and fitment support from our in-house suspension team.

Front spring rate should match the constant weight sitting on the front axle, not just the vehicle's kerb weight. A Triton fitted with a steel bull bar, winch and driving lights carries meaningfully more front-end weight than a stock vehicle, so heavier-rated coils help maintain the 1.5" lift height under that load. Common front accessories to account for include bull bars, winches, second batteries mounted forward and snorkels, though the last has negligible weight impact.
This kit is best fitted by an experienced 4WD suspension installer or a competent DIY mechanic with a hoist and basic hand tools. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting, as front ride height and castor angle both change once the new springs and shocks are installed. Allow a 500km bed-in period before final alignment if possible, as coil springs settle slightly under initial use. For vehicles carrying steering-sensitive accessories, pairing this kit with upgraded control arms helps correct geometry at the new ride height.
Dobinsons has supplied 4WD suspension componentry to the Australian market for decades, with shocks and springs assembled and valved specifically for local vehicle applications rather than generic overseas tunes. This Nitro Gas kit carries Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty and is stocked in Australia for fast dispatch. Tradespeople and remote-area tourers running the Triton ML-MN rely on Dobinsons componentry for consistent front-end support under load — view the full Dobinsons range for matching rear options.
This front lift kit suits Triton ML-MN owners running a bull bar, winch or driving lights who need the front end to sit correctly under that added weight. It also suits tourers wanting a 1.5" lift for larger tyre clearance without moving to a full remote-reservoir setup. For utes regularly loaded with canopies, tool boxes or camper trailers on the tow ball, our airbag suspension options can complement this kit at the rear.

Yes, this Dobinsons Nitro Gas kit is a direct-fit front lift for the Mitsubishi Triton ML (2006-2009) and MN (2009-2015) in both 2.5L and 3.2L turbo diesel variants. It uses vehicle-specific valving and coil rates matched to the Triton's front axle weight, not a universal shock tune. If you're fitting to a modified vehicle with a non-standard front end, contact our team to confirm compatibility before ordering.
This kit provides a 1.5" front lift measured at the pre-assembled coil spring height once fitted. Actual ride height gained can vary slightly depending on your Triton's current front-end load, such as a bull bar or winch already fitted. The rear of the vehicle is unaffected unless paired with a separate rear kit.
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 Dobinsons Nitro Gas twin-tube front shock absorbers with a 35mm bore piston, and 2 x pre-assembled heavy-duty front coil springs set at 1.5" raised height. Mounting hardware and bushes needed for the front shock installation are included, along with fitting instructions. Rear shocks, rear springs and upper control arms are sold separately.
This is a front lift kit, so it primarily affects front-end load carrying and ride height rather than tow ball weight, which is carried on the rear axle. If you tow regularly and need extra rear support, we recommend pairing this front kit with a rear leaf spring or coil upgrade, or adding airbag suspension for load-sensitive towing setups.
It's not mandatory, but recommended if your Triton runs larger tyres or you want fully corrected caster and CV joint angles at the 1.5" lift height. Standard control arms will function at this lift height, but geometry sits slightly outside factory spec. Upgraded control arms restore correct angles and reduce CV joint wear over time.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this kit. Front ride height and castor angle both change once the new coils and shocks are fitted, so an alignment is needed to bring the Triton back within factory tolerance. We suggest a 500km bed-in period before the final alignment, as new coil springs settle slightly under initial use.
This particular kit ships with a single pre-assembled coil rate suited to Triton ML-MN vehicles carrying typical front accessory weight such as a bull bar and winch. If your front-end load is significantly heavier or lighter than that, contact our team to discuss whether a different Dobinsons coil rate suits your setup better before ordering.
A 1.5" front lift typically provides enough clearance for a modest tyre size increase over factory diameter, though actual clearance depends on your wheel offset and width. We recommend checking your specific tyre and wheel combination against Triton ML-MN clearance data, or contacting our team, before purchasing larger rubber.
This Dobinsons Nitro Gas kit is covered by Dobinsons' manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Full warranty terms are confirmed at time of purchase and honoured through 4WD Suspension as your Australian supplier. Keep your invoice as proof of purchase for any warranty claim.
Yes, this kit is designed for Triton owners who daily drive their vehicle as well as tour or work with it. The nitrogen gas shock and matched coil spring combination is tuned to keep on-road comfort acceptable at the 1.5" lift height while still handling corrugated roads and load-carrying duties. It isn't a race or competition-specific setup — it's built for everyday Australian conditions.
