(08) 9752 4466 2 Artisan Street, Busselton WA 6280A Dobinsons GVM upgrade enhances your vehicle's legal weight-carrying capacity through the expert installation of a specially designed Dobinsons suspension kit. This kit, rigorously tested and approved in Australia by the Department of Infrastructure, replaces the factory springs, shock absorbers, and other standard suspension components. Additionally, tyre upgrades may be necessary. Unlike a standard aftermarket suspension kit, the Dobinsons GVM upgrade not only raises your vehicle's ride height from its original factory setting but also significantly boosts its payload capacity.
Check your manual or the placard on your vehicle for its GVM, then weigh your vehicle at a weighbridge loaded as you would normally drive it (caravan attached if you tow). If the total exceeds your GVM, you are overloaded. Visible rear suspension sag is another warning sign. Unsure? Our team is here to help.
