Mitsubishi Triton 4WD (2016-18) MQ 1/2016-18 Tough Dog FS123L Tough Dog Rear Leaf Spring
TD-FS123L
Leaf springs represent one of the most enduring suspension designs in automotive history, maintaining their relevance particularly in commercial vehicles due to their exceptional load-bearing capabilities.
Engineered in Australia, Tough Dog progressive rate leaf springs incorporate both primary and secondary stage leaves, ensuring that the vehicle's ride quality remains uncompromised under varying load conditions. As the spring compresses, the secondary stage engages to mitigate excessive sag, providing a balanced ride.
The manufacturing process is meticulously designed to maximize durability, offering robust corrosion resistance and sag prevention. Tough Dog provides a selection of up to three spring rate options for most applications, allowing for tailored performance based on your vehicle's specific setup.
These leaf springs are precision mandrel and die-formed, oil quenched, hardened, and tempered to ensure longevity. A military wrap is standard across all part numbers, and each spring is accurately heat-treated to enhance performance. Constructed from high-grade spring steel, many applications feature anti-friction pads to reduce wear and improve efficiency.
Each spring is pre-stressed to maintain optimal ride height and is rigorously load rate tested to ensure reliability. If your vehicle is equipped with additional accessories, Tough Dog offers various spring rates to accommodate constant load scenarios.
Approximate raised height achieved with these springs is between 20-25mm, with specific models catering to different load capacities: FS123C for 0-300kg light load, FS123L for 300kg constant load, and FS123LL for 500kg constant load.
It is advisable to pair these raised springs with long travel shock absorbers to optimize performance. Constant load refers to weight that is permanently added to the vehicle, such as fixed accessories like canopies, steel trays, draw systems, fridges, toolboxes, rear bars, or spare wheel carriers.
Selecting the appropriate spring rate is crucial for achieving the best results in load carrying, ride quality, and overall ride height. Please note that images provided are for representation purposes only and may not depict the exact part number you are viewing.
