Product Info

Keep your Mitsubishi Triton MQ 2015-2018 tub clean and protected with the EGR Dust Defender, the ultimate solution for blocking dust, dirt, and water from entering through tailgate gaps. Designed specifically for MQ tubs, this robust and durable kit provides a tight seal, helping maintain a cleaner load area and protecting your ute from the elements. Made from high-quality materials and engineered for longevity, the EGR Dust Defender ensures your tub stays dry and dust-free, even during tough off-road or daily driving conditions.

Key Features:

Effective dust and water protection – Shields your tub from debris entering through tailgate gaps.

Durable construction – Built from hard-wearing materials to withstand daily use and harsh conditions.

Precision fit – Designed specifically for Mitsubishi Triton MQ 2015-2018, ensuring maximum coverage.

Maintains cleaner tubs – Reduces cleaning time and keeps your load area protected.

Installation notes – Requires trimming of tub liners for correct fitment. Spray-on liners may affect installation. Remove any top-mounted accessories such as Canopy, Hard Lid, or RollTrac before fitting for best results. Note: Currently suitable only for MQ tubs due to changes in tub floor ribbing for MR models.

The EGR Dust Defender is your go-to accessory for keeping your Triton MQ tub clean, dry, and ready for any adventure.

- NOTE -
  -> Requires trimming of Tub Liner for fitment.
  ->  Fitment with 'spray on' liners will affect fitment of this product. 
This product requires a metal to metal application (the kit against your tub).  Liners need to be trimmed back to allow this contact - and spray liners may not be able to easily be trimmed.

  -> Removal of other items fitted to the top of your tub is also recommended when fitting this product (remove Canopy/Hard Lid/Rollcover - fit the dust kit, then re-fit the Canopy/Hard Lid/EGR RollTrac - as it's easier to trim your ute liner by removing it completely, then re-fitting it inside your Tub)

*Mitsubishi changed the tub floor ribbing that lead to this item not fitting a level of MR tubs, so currently, this is only suitable for MQ floors.

FAQs

I am concerned that if I install an EGR Dust Defender that my fridge draw slide will no longer operate. Will this be an issue?

The EGR Dust Defender once installed is roughly 24.5mm high. This is normally lower than the ribs inside the tailgate which means the draw slide sits higher. If you are still concerned we recommend placing a thin rubber mat under your draw slider to raise the height by a few millimetres. This also gives an extra layer of protection for your vehicle's tub.

Since installing my EGR Dust Defender I have noticed my tailgate is harder to open and close. Is this normal?

Yes. In order to get the dust out the seal must have pressure up against the tailgate. This is to ensure the tightest seal is made to ensure minimal dust can get in.

I have a Tubliner, is the EGR Dust Defender compatible?

Yes, with conditions.

The EGR Dust Defender requires metal on metal contact in order for the seal to work. If you have a clip in a plastic Tub Liner it will require trimming (explains how with our fitting instructions). If you have a spray on Ute Liner you would need to remove the Tubliner in the areas required.

Will the EGR Dust Defender work if I do not modify the Tubliner?

The EGR Dust Defender is engineered to suit each vehicle tub based on no Tub Liner. If the Tubliner is not trimmed this can result in the parts not fitting correctly during installation. As the EGR Dust Defender also requires metal on metal contact to form the best seal it can. Tub Liners are a textured surface which has seam divots, meaning that seal will be less effective and this is not recommended.

Can I install a Dust Defender with existing draws or fridge?

If yoiu have existing draws, fridge or other accessory, this will need to be removed prior to fitting the Dust Defender. This is due to the angles being too tight to install. If you have questions about your particular tub setup, please let us know.
