Choosing the correct spring rate is critical for ride quality and component longevity. Spring rates should be selected based on your constant accessory load only — not occasional loads like camping gear or towing. Common front accessories that affect spring selection include steel bullbars (25-40kg), winches (30-45kg), and heavy-duty batteries or dual battery systems (15-25kg). Occasional loads such as camping equipment, passengers, or towing a trailer should not be factored into spring rate selection, as oversized springs will result in harsh ride quality and potential damage to other suspension components. When ordering, accurately assess only the permanent weight additions to your Triton ML-MN's front end.
This front lift kit is designed for professional installation or experienced DIY mechanics with appropriate workshop equipment including spring compressors and torque wrenches. A full wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to reset caster, camber, and toe settings to manufacturer specifications and prevent premature tyre wear. A 500km break-in period is recommended to allow springs to settle and bushings to seat properly — ride height may drop 5-10mm during this period. For maximum suspension performance and geometry correction on lifted Triton ML-MN models, consider pairing this kit with upgraded control arms to restore castor angles and improve steering feel.
Dobinsons Spring & Suspension has been engineering and manufacturing premium 4WD suspension components for over 60 years from their Australian headquarters, exporting to more than 40 countries worldwide. Every Dobinsons shock absorber undergoes rigorous in-house dyno testing and custom durability testing that simulates millions of cycles under extreme Australian outback conditions including corrugations, dust, and temperatures exceeding 100°C. Backed by comprehensive manufacturer warranty and trusted by touring enthusiasts, tradespeople, and commercial fleet operators across Australia, the full Dobinsons suspension range represents proven quality and real-world reliability.
This 35mm front lift kit is ideal for Mitsubishi Triton ML-MN owners who have added heavy front accessories like steel bullbars and winches, causing front-end sag and reduced headlight aim. It's equally suited to recreational four-wheel drivers seeking improved ground clearance for track work, tradespeople requiring enhanced payload capacity for tools and equipment, and touring enthusiasts preparing for long-distance outback adventures. If you regularly carry heavy rear loads or tow caravans, consider adding airbag suspension to the rear for adjustable load support and level vehicle stance under all conditions.

Yes, this Dobinsons Nitro Gas 35mm Front Lift Kit is specifically engineered for Mitsubishi Triton ML series (2006-2009) and MN series (2009-2015) models. It provides direct bolt-in fitment to factory mounting points without any chassis modifications required. The kit suits both 2.5L diesel and 3.5L petrol engine variants across these model years. If you're unsure about your exact series or want to confirm compatibility with specific variants, our suspension experts can verify fitment using your VIN number.
This kit delivers 35mm (approximately 1.4 inches) of front lift height for your Mitsubishi Triton ML-MN. This lift amount is specifically designed to level the front end after adding heavy accessories like steel bullbars, winches, and upgraded batteries that typically cause front-end sag. The 35mm lift also provides improved ground clearance for off-road driving and allows fitment of slightly larger tyres. Actual installed height may vary slightly depending on your vehicle's existing accessory weight and can settle 5-10mm during the initial 500km break-in period.
This complete front lift kit includes 2 pre-assembled Dobinsons Nitro Gas shock absorbers with matched heavy-duty coil springs already installed, plus all necessary mounting hardware and natural rubber bushings. The pre-assembled design means the springs are already compressed and secured to the shock absorbers, eliminating the need for spring compressors during installation and ensuring perfect spring-shock compatibility. The kit does not include upper control arms, brake line extensions, or rear suspension components, which may need to be purchased separately depending on your vehicle's configuration and intended use.
Yes, this front lift kit is suitable for Triton ML-MN vehicles used for towing, as it helps maintain proper vehicle stance and prevents excessive front-end dive under braking when towing heavy loads. However, the spring rate should be selected based only on your constant front accessory load (bullbar, winch, etc.), not your towing weight. For the rear of your vehicle when towing, we strongly recommend adding airbag suspension or upgraded rear springs to handle tongue weight and maintain level vehicle attitude. The improved damping performance of these Dobinsons shocks also enhances stability and control when towing on both highways and corrugated tracks.
While not mandatory for a 35mm front lift, upgraded control arms are highly recommended to restore correct caster angles and maintain optimal steering geometry after lifting your Triton ML-MN. Factory control arms will still function with this lift height, but extended or adjustable control arms improve steering feel, reduce tyre wear, and enhance on-road handling by correcting suspension geometry altered by the lift. Many Triton owners choose to install upgraded control arms at the same time as their lift kit to maximize performance benefits. Our suspension experts can recommend the best control arm options based on your specific driving requirements and budget.
Yes, a professional four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing this or any lift kit on your Mitsubishi Triton ML-MN. Lifting the front suspension alters camber, caster, and toe angles from factory specifications, which can cause premature and uneven tyre wear, poor handling, and wandering steering if not corrected. The alignment should be performed after installation and again after the 500km break-in period once springs have fully settled. Always use a qualified workshop with laser alignment equipment and ensure they have access to correct Triton ML-MN alignment specifications for lifted vehicles.
Spring rate selection should be based exclusively on your constant front accessory load — the permanent weight you carry such as steel bullbars, winches, dual batteries, and heavy-duty bars. When ordering, accurately calculate only these permanent additions and select the appropriate spring rate accordingly. Do not factor in occasional loads like camping gear, extra passengers, or towing loads, as selecting overly stiff springs will result in harsh ride quality and may cause stress to other suspension components. Our team can help you calculate your constant load and recommend the correct spring rate for optimal comfort and performance on your Triton ML-MN.
The 35mm front lift will provide additional clearance for moderately larger tyres on your Mitsubishi Triton ML-MN, though exact fitment depends on your wheel offset, tyre width, and suspension articulation. Generally, this lift allows for tyres approximately 10-20mm larger in diameter than factory fitment without major rubbing issues, though minor trimming of plastic guards may be required in some cases. It's important to note this is a front-only kit, so you'll need matching rear lift or suspension to maintain vehicle balance and maximize tyre clearance all around. Always test-fit new tyres with full steering lock and suspension compression before committing to ensure clearance under all conditions.

Absolutely — this Dobinsons Nitro Gas lift kit is engineered to deliver excellent on-road comfort and handling for daily commuting and highway driving while also providing enhanced off-road capability when needed.

Perfect Upgrade for My Work Triton
Had the Dobinsons 35mm front lift kit fitted to my MN Triton a few months back and it's been brilliant for carrying all my tools and gear without the front sagging. Ride quality is actually smoother than the stock setup, even when loaded up heading to job sites. Takes the occasional beach or dirt track run on weekends without any dramas too.(5)
Perfect Upgrade for Our Family Triton
Had this Dobinsons front lift kit fitted to our MN Triton about three months ago and it's transformed how the ute handles when loaded up for camping trips. The ride quality is noticeably smoother on corrugated dirt roads compared to the factory setup, and the kids reckon the trip to our favourite spot in the High Country was way more comfortable. Really happy with how level the front sits now with the bull bar and winch, and the fitment was spot on according to my mechanic.(5)
