GVM upgrade kits most commonly consist of replacing the original suspension equipment with more capable equipment that is designed to carry greater weight. Replacing components such as springs and shock absorbers allows the vehicle to carry additional weight, without compromising on its handling, function and safety features. Of course, to ensure this is the case, all GVM upgrades are rigorously tested and approved by the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, Communications and Arts. During the GVM upgrade process, axle load limits are also commonly tested and validated to increase the permissible load over each axle.

A GVM upgrade, will commonly see your vehicle’s GVM and retrospectively your overall payload increase by up to 300kg!
