The Tough Dog Complete Lift Kit for Mitsubishi Triton ML, MN, MQ and MR (2006-ON) delivers a 2" lift front and rear using foam cell strut technology, progressive rate coil springs and heavy-duty multi-leaf rear springs. Spring rates are selectable to match your exact constant load, so a tourer running a canopy and fridge gets the same flat ride as a tradie hauling tools. This 4WD lift kit adds real ground clearance and payload margin while keeping the factory steering geometry workable. Backed by Toughdog's Australian warranty and in stock for fast dispatch nationwide.

Choose your rear leaf spring rate based on what stays on the tray or in the canopy day to day, not your peak load. A tray back with a steel canopy, drawers, water tank and dual battery setup needs a heavier constant load rating than a tub used for weekend trips only. Tell us your fitted accessories — bull bar, winch, canopy, drawers, long range tank — and we'll help match front coil and rear leaf rates before you order.
This kit suits an experienced DIY installer with a workshop press for the front struts, but most customers have it professionally fitted in a day. Wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting since ride height and castor angle change with a 2" lift. Allow a 500km settling period for the leaf springs and shocks before final alignment checks. If you're running the lift regularly loaded or off camber, pair it with upgraded control arm upgrades to correct suspension geometry and restore CV joint angles.
Toughdog has built 4WD suspension in Australia for decades, tuning foam cell shocks and springs specifically for local roads, loads and climate rather than importing a generic overseas spec. Every kit is backed by a manufacturer warranty and the parts are sold and supported directly by our Australian team. See the full Toughdog range for matching shocks, springs and componentry across other 4WD platforms.
This kit suits Triton owners running a canopy and tools for work, tourers adding a rooftop tent and drawers, or anyone towing a van who needs the rear end to sit level under load. If you're carrying variable loads — empty one trip, fully loaded the next — talk to us about airbag suspension as a load-levelling add-on to this kit.
In stock in Australia and ready for fast dispatch, with our team on hand for fitment advice before and after you order. Browse our full lift kit range to compare options for your Triton.

This Tough Dog kit is built for Mitsubishi Triton ML, MN, MQ and MR models, covering 2006 through to current MR production. Front and rear components are matched to this chassis, so it isn't a universal fit for other Triton generations like the MK or MJ. If you're unsure which series you have, check your compliance plate or use our Triton parts finder. Our team can also confirm fitment from your rego or VIN.
This kit delivers a 2" lift at both the front and rear over standard ride height. The lift comes from foam cell front struts on progressive rate coils plus heavy-duty multi-leaf rear springs, not spacers. Actual ride height will vary slightly depending on the constant load rating you select for the rear leaf springs. This is a genuine suspension lift, not a cosmetic block 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 front foam cell strut assemblies, progressive rate front coil springs, rear foam cell shock absorbers and heavy-duty multi-leaf rear springs. U-bolt kits and greasable shackle pin kits are included for the rear leaf spring installation. Upper control arms and steering dampers are not included and are sold separately if needed. Full fitting instructions are supplied with the kit.
Yes, this kit is a common choice for Triton owners towing vans or trailers regularly. The rear multi-leaf springs are available in constant load ratings, so you can select a heavier rating to keep the rear end level when towing with a loaded canopy or tray. The foam cell rear shocks are matched to the leaf spring rate to control rebound under tow load. Tell us your tow ball weight and typical accessory load so we can recommend the right rear spring rate.
A 2" lift on the Triton can be run on factory control arms in most cases, but geometry correction improves handling and reduces CV angle wear. If you're regularly off-road or running larger tyres, upgraded control arms are worth adding at the same time as the lift kit. Our team can advise whether your driving and tyre choice warrants the upgrade. Control arms are sold separately from this kit.
Yes, wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this kit. Ride height and castor angle both change with a 2" lift, which affects tyre wear and steering feel if left unaligned. We recommend an alignment immediately after fitting and a follow-up check after the 500km settling period. Skipping alignment will accelerate tyre wear regardless of how well the kit itself is fitted.
Yes, the rear multi-leaf springs in this kit are available in different constant load ratings to suit your typical accessory load. A Triton running a steel canopy, drawers and water tank needs a heavier rating than one used unladen for weekend trips. Front progressive rate coils are matched to suit a bull bar and winch setup. Let us know your fitted accessories when ordering so we can confirm the right combination.
A 2" lift on the Triton typically clears a modest tyre size increase over standard, though exact clearance depends on wheel offset and tyre profile. Rubbing points are usually at the front guard liner and rear leaf spring pack under full articulation. We recommend confirming your intended tyre and wheel combination with our team before ordering so we can flag any trimming that may be needed. This kit is designed as a suspension upgrade first, with tyre clearance as a secondary benefit.
This kit is covered by Toughdog's manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Warranty terms are handled directly through 4WD Suspension as your Australian supplier, so you're not dealing with an overseas claims process. Keep your proof of purchase and fitment date for any warranty claim. Contact our team directly if you have a concern with the kit's performance after installation.
Yes, the progressive rate front coils and foam cell shocks are tuned to keep the ride comfortable unladen, not just under full touring or towing load. Many Triton owners run this kit as their daily setup and only notice the firmer rate when the tray or canopy is loaded up. On-road manners are close to standard height once the correct spring rate is matched to your typical load. If your Triton sits empty most of the week, tell us this when selecting your rear spring rate.
