4WD Suspension & GVM Upgrade FAQs

A suspension upgrade is completed to improve the handling, clearance and off road performance of your vehicle. If you want a smoother ride, better performance and improved handling, including reducing body roll, then a suspension upgrade may be just what your vehicle needs.

Upgrading your vehicle suspension is a great investment as it can significantly enhance the comfort and handling of your car. By upgrading the suspension you will enjoy a smoother ride with less bumps on the road and improved handling for the driver. 
A GVM upgrade increases the legal Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) of your vehicle and means that you can carry a larger load without affecting the performance, handling and safety of your vehicle. It doesn’t take long to go over the legal maximum weight (GVM) of your vehicle by the time you add some accessories, and passengers in your vehicle. 
 
 
A GVM upgrade and a lift kit are two very different upgrades you can do to your vehicle. A GVM upgrade increases the allowable or legal weight that your vehicle can carry and tow, whereas a lift kit simply raises the vehicle’s suspension, giving you greater clearance.
