Selecting the correct spring rate is critical for optimal ride quality, load capacity and suspension longevity. Choose your spring rate based on the constant load your vehicle carries permanently - this includes accessories that are always fitted to your Triton.
Front accessories to consider: Steel bull bar or alloy bar, winch, driving lights, UHF aerial, roof rack with roof-top tent, steel tray or canopy, upgraded bash plates and diff guards. Calculate the combined weight of all permanently fitted accessories and select the spring rate that matches your constant load range.
Important: Do not select heavier spring rates based on occasional loads like camping gear or passengers - this will result in harsh ride quality when unloaded and may cause premature wear to other suspension components. For vehicles that regularly switch between light and heavy loads, consider airbag suspension as an adjustable alternative.
Professional installation by a qualified mechanic or experienced 4WD workshop is strongly recommended for coil spring replacement. Installation requires spring compressors and proper safety equipment - incorrect installation can result in serious injury. A full four-wheel alignment is mandatory after fitting to ensure correct steering geometry, tyre wear and vehicle handling characteristics.
Allow a 500km break-in period for springs to settle to their final ride height - some initial settling is normal with new coil springs. During this period, avoid maximum loads and extreme off-road use. For vehicles with 20mm+ lift, consider upgrading to extended ball joint control arms to maintain optimal suspension geometry and prevent premature wear on ball joints and CV joints.

These front coil springs are ideal for Mitsubishi Triton MQ-MR owners who have fitted heavy front accessories like steel bull bars and winches, or who need improved ground clearance for off-road touring and beach driving. They're equally suited to tradespeople carrying constant tool loads, farmers navigating rough property tracks, and touring families who've added permanent weight with roof racks and upgraded protection equipment.
If you regularly tow caravans or trailers and experience front-end rise or poor steering feel, these springs restore proper ride height and handling balance. For maximum load versatility and the ability to adjust for varying loads, consider pairing your spring upgrade with adjustable airbag suspension for rear load support.

These Toughdog front coil springs are specifically engineered for Mitsubishi Triton MQ series (2015-2018) and MR series (2019-current) models with the 2.4L turbo diesel engine. They fit all cab configurations including single cab, club cab and dual cab variants. If you have an earlier Triton model (ML, MN) or the petrol engine variant, different part numbers are required. Check your vehicle's compliance plate to confirm your series code, or contact our team with your VIN number for confirmation.
These Toughdog front coil springs provide approximately 20mm of lift over standard factory ride height when installed on a Mitsubishi Triton MQ-MR. Actual lift height may vary by 5-10mm depending on your vehicle's current condition, constant accessory load, and the specific spring rate selected. The 20mm lift is measured at final settled height after the recommended 500km break-in period. This moderate lift height improves ground clearance and approach angles while maintaining safe steering geometry and ride quality for daily driving.
This kit includes a pair (2 springs) of Toughdog front coil springs specifically rated for your Mitsubishi Triton MQ-MR. The springs are supplied ready to install with protective coating applied. This kit does not include shock absorbers, spring isolators, bump stops or installation hardware - these components are typically reused from your existing suspension if in good condition. We recommend inspecting all suspension components during installation and replacing worn items. Shock absorbers and other suspension components are available separately to create a complete upgrade package.
Yes, these Toughdog front coil springs are excellent for Triton owners who regularly tow caravans, camper trailers or boat trailers. The increased spring rate options available help support the additional front-end weight from tow ball download, preventing excessive front-end sag that can compromise steering feel and headlight aim. When towing heavy loads, proper weight distribution is critical - ensure your trailer has correct ball weight (typically 10% of trailer weight) and consider rear airbags or upgraded rear springs to maintain level ride height. Always stay within your vehicle's GVM and towing capacity ratings.
For a 20mm front lift, upgraded control arms are not strictly mandatory but are recommended for optimal suspension geometry and longevity. The factory control arms will still function with this modest lift height, but extended ball joint control arms help maintain correct camber angles and reduce stress on ball joints and CV joints. If you're also installing a rear lift or planning to fit larger tyres (32-33 inches), upgraded control arms become more important to prevent premature wear. Many Triton owners install springs first and add control arms later if needed, or choose to upgrade everything together for best results.
Yes, a full four-wheel alignment is absolutely mandatory after installing new front coil springs on your Mitsubishi Triton. Changing your vehicle's ride height alters suspension geometry including camber, caster and toe angles, which directly affects tyre wear, steering feel and vehicle handling. The alignment should be performed after the springs have settled (ideally after 500km of normal driving) to ensure adjustments are made at the final ride height. Choose an alignment shop experienced with lifted 4WDs who can adjust to specifications appropriate for your new ride height and intended use.
Select your spring rate based on the constant load your Triton carries permanently - not occasional camping gear or passengers. Calculate the total weight of permanently fitted accessories including bull bar, winch, driving lights, roof racks, roof-top tent, canopy or tray, bash plates and any other fixed equipment. Choose the spring rate that matches this constant front-end load. Selecting springs that are too heavy for your actual load will result in harsh ride quality and reduced comfort. If your load varies significantly, consider adjustable airbags as an alternative to provide load-levelling capability without compromising unladen ride quality.
The 20mm front lift from these Toughdog coil springs provides some additional clearance for slightly larger tyres, but is considered a modest lift height. Most Triton MQ-MR owners can fit 265/70R17 or 265/65R18 tyres (approximately 31.5-32 inches) with minimal or no trimming when combined with appropriate wheel offset. For 33-inch tyres, you'll likely need additional lift at the rear, body trimming, and possibly upgraded upper control arms to maximise articulation clearance. Tyre fitment also depends on wheel offset, suspension compression under load, and your specific driving style - test clearance at full lock and full compression before committing to larger tyres.
Toughdog coil springs are backed by the manufacturer's comprehensive warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal operating conditions. Warranty terms typically include replacement or repair of faulty components when installed and maintained according to manufacturer specifications. To maintain warranty validity, springs must be installed by a qualified mechanic, used within the vehicle's GVM and payload ratings, and matched to the correct spring rate for your constant load. Keep your proof of purchase and installation records. Contact us for specific warranty duration and terms, as these may vary by product line and application.
Absolutely - these Toughdog front coil springs are engineered to deliver excellent ride quality for daily driving, highway cruising and city commuting while also providing enhanced capability for off-road touring and load carrying. The 20mm lift height is conservative enough to maintain comfortable on-road manners without the harsh ride associated with extreme lift kits. When properly matched to your constant load with the correct spring rate, you'll experience improved handling stability, reduced body roll and maintained comfort for long-distance touring. Toughdog's progressive spring rate design ensures the springs work effectively across the full range of loads from unladen to maximum payload capacity.
