Includes RIVAL FOG Lights (Set of 2)
Installation Manual
Weight: 42 kg
The Mitsubishi Triton MQ established itself as one of Australia's most popular value-for-money utes — a genuine all-rounder that handles muddy paddocks, city streets and outback highways with equal composure. The RIVAL Aluminium Front Bar gives your Triton the front-end protection it needs for the real world, from defending against kangaroo strikes on the Warrego Highway to navigating fallen timber on forestry tracks in the Otway Ranges. At just 42 kg, it adds serious armour without compromising the Triton's already impressive fuel efficiency.

Why Choose Aluminium Over Steel?
Reduced Front-End Weight
At 42 kg, this bar maintains the Triton's light front-end feel, preserving fuel economy that's essential for tradies watching running costs.
Superior Corrosion Resistance
Aluminium naturally resists rust — ideal for coastal tradies, farm use in wet regions, and vehicles exposed to salt and mud daily.
Engineered Energy Management
Aluminium construction deforms progressively under impact, assisting in controlled energy dispersion during a collision.
Optimised for Modern Vehicles
Supports correct airbag deployment and reduces front-axle loading, preserving the factory braking and handling balance.
