GVM Upgrades NZ - Increase Load Capacity & Safety

Not all vehicles are created equal in towing abilities, and sometimes even the big fellas need a hand with modifications to suit the weight of your load. Whether you’re towing a trailer, a boat, or a caravan, it is a driver’s responsibility to ensure you have the power and the means to stop, and sometimes the ability to change in between with an onboard controller for your brakes or throttle. And once safety is covered there’s also ride comfort to consider, which is where our range of airbag kits could assist.

ShockPro has a range of solutions no matter what you’re towing, and what you’re towing it with. Book in today and we’ll find the best option for you!

Why Consider a GVM Upgrade?

When you’re planning adventures off the beaten path, ensuring your 4×4 can handle the load safely is essential. A GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass) upgrade is more than just a technical specification. It’s a crucial enhancement to help you manage added weight from camping gear, tools, and modifications without compromising safety or performance. Without an upgrade, carrying heavy loads can lead to issues with braking, stability, and overall control, impacting both your vehicle’s lifespan and your off-road experience.

How It Works

A GVM upgrade involves enhancing components of your vehicle, primarily the suspension system, to handle increased weight. During the upgrade process we will assess and possibly recommend:

Strengthened Suspension: Upgraded springs, shocks, and suspension components to bear extra weight.

Certified Modifications: All modifications comply with engineering and regulatory standards to ensure safety and legality.

Improved Stability: GVM upgrades boost vehicle stability, helping you maintain better control on rugged terrains.

Benefits of Increasing Your Vehicle’s Load Capacity

Choosing GVM upgrades provides significant advantages:

Enhanced Safety: Safer brake and steering, improved stability, and less strain on vehicle components.

Extended Vehicle Lifespan: Less wear and tear on crucial parts, reducing the risk of breakdowns and repairs.

Increased Versatility: Carry heavier loads with peace of mind, knowing your vehicle is optimized for the extra weight.
