Gvm Upgrades — Brad’s All Mechanical Repairs is the local specialist for gvm upgrades, trusted by drivers across Adelaide’s south for honest advice and quality workmanship.
Gvm Upgrades You Can Trust
If you are serious about touring, towing or camping, a GVM upgrade lets your 4WD legally carry the extra weight of bullbars, canopies, water and camping gear. Our GVM upgrades include engineer-certified suspension upgrades, load-rated components and full compliance paperwork, so your vehicle stays safe, stable and legal at its new higher weight rating.
Signs You Need Gvm Upgrades
- Your 4WD sits low at the rear when loaded with gear
- You are planning to fit a canopy, bullbar or camper trailer
- You regularly tow near your vehicle’s legal weight limit
- Handling feels soft or unstable when fully loaded
- You want to legally carry more touring and camping equipment
GVM Upgrades for Touring & Heavy-Load 4WDs
Heading off-road with a full canopy, fridge, water tanks and recovery gear? A factory GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass) rating often can’t legally carry the load a well-set-up tourer needs. Brad’s All Mechanical Repairs fits engineer-certified GVM upgrades so your 4WD is legal, safe and properly set up for the Fleurieu Peninsula’s dirt roads and beyond.
What’s involved
A GVM upgrade typically includes upgraded suspension (springs, shocks and in some cases upgraded control arms), and in many cases upgraded brakes to safely handle the extra weight. Every upgrade we fit comes with the compliance paperwork needed to keep your vehicle registered and legal.
