Reuben, great video mate and so glad we did the GVM+ after we built and added all the accessories to our 200 series purchased new via VEOP and DMW!
Wanting the GCM+ approved now once Qld and DMW can!
Cheers mate!
Sounds great! Thanks mate!
Thanks 👍
Thank you too @rider7324
Hey Rubin good video just an idea could you guys do a video series showing going in-depth showing what components and how you do it as there is so much misinformation in this subject
love the vidoes keep the good work 👍✔
Thanks for the idea and for following along :)
Nice work
Thank you! Cheers!
good work legend
Thank you so much @leecoates6524
Very informative video but I was wondering how rough the ride becomes after a GVM upgrade
So does this mean no more need for pre rego upgrades?
insane video you rnew editor is sick
Cheers @drcat7908. Thanks for watching! :)
Q: so when Toyota say, Your trans/engine/turbo ect ect blew up because of the additional weight that it wasn't designed for, who's paying then?
Good point, John Cadogan had a video this week where Mazda knocked back a claim for a cracked piston due to the BT50 owner having a throttle controller fitted.
2018 ex Nissan Navara owner that brought the vehicle ex demo (680km) that came with (and I quote from them) our factory fitted bullbar won't void any warranty.
Within 5 weeks the lights went nuts.
Oh, we can't do anything because it's an aftermarket bar.
Any and all excuse to get out of fixing their own f@#k up.
And that’s the crucial thing anything which maybe connected is now being used outside its design parameters- sure if the screen fails, nothing to do with GVM upgrade- but it’s a fair point to argue the engine will prematurely fail if it has to deal with a 1/3 increase in weight .
Been hearing alot of stories about both manufacturers and after market companies blaming each other and voiding the warranty. Customers stuck in the middle and the paying out of pocket. What happens then?
That’s FAAFO.
What sort of chassis extensions do you do for the 300 series and how does it affect your GVM/GCM
Hi @darrenlsagts996, for more details, please feel free to talk to our sales team on 07 46302369 to better answer your question and we'll be happy to assist. :) Thanks!
Just been talking to a Nissan dealer here in Vic, one of the biggest questions I have whilst looking for a dealer for my new Patrol is exactly what you mentioned "Warranty" Still is a grey area from what I have heard. Anyways onto the GVM Upgrade side. The dealer told me to get the Upgrade after rego which apparently in her words is the new law, and you can’t do them pre rego. do you have any comments on that? Also do you know anything about Luxury car taxes? She also told me not to get the towing pack until the first service because it would incur a Luxury car tax if I was to have it supplied as one of the extras. Crazy rules happening. Thanks for your vids and looking forward to any and all concerning this type of subject.
Hi @phillroo7871 , to better answer your questions and discuss the details please feel free to call DMW Office, our sales team would be happy to assist you.
Can't upgrade your GCM in WA. It's madness that there are not common national laws. A Qld regoed vehicle can be driving down a Perth street with a legal GCM upgrade whilst a WA regoed vehicle can't get one?
Stay tuned for future video about GCM upgrades Bill. Thanks for watching!
The madness is wa gone completely crazy
How much longer until gcm video? have patrol arriving in November and this will decided whether i do a pre or post gvm upgrade.
Thanks Trent
Not sure yet @trentneumann5788, but we'll post an update on our page when it drops. Thanks for tuning in!
I find it crazy that pay loads are so low for big 4x4. Put your family in and half of it’s gone. There’s no way you could load up and go on holiday let alone go camping.
Unfortunately many people don't realise how quickly the weight adds up and how little payload they have.
I think suspension isnt just the fix, brakes should be upgraded as well to match the new gvm upgraded, this hole gvm upgrade push yet no brakes or sensor calibration for new weights on the abs side is also a issue.
the brakes are good enough
Hi Reuben i have a 2022 Ram 1500 Limited with air suspension, are you looking at doing GVM upgrades on these any time in the near future as the payloads in these are ridiculous for something that is supposed to tow 4.5 t 🙄
Not certain yet @gordocampbell9254 .
@@dirtymuddyweekends I’ll keep my ears and eyes open and fingers crossed 👍
Hi Reuben, can you do gvm upgrades on a 2012 mitsubishi pajero?
Thanks for your interest, unfortunately no offer yet for the Pajero at this time.. Thank you for watching @brekyl1965
Hi Rueben,
Who do you guys use in Sydney?
Please contact DMW office for more details. Thanks @Tourn4x4
Do you guys do a GVM upgrade with parabolic springs at rear for 79 dual cab?
Hi, it would be best to speak with our sales team for more information. Please feel free to contact the DMW office on 07 46302369 to check on current options. We would be happy to go through your build options. Thank you. 🙂
How long does an upgrade on a 200 series usually take?
Lead time for GVM upgrades at the moment are 2-3 weeks. But please confirm with our sales team as there are other factors to consider as well. Thanks!
Can u upgrade a gq Nissan patrol with a Ls engine in it
We don't have any plans for a GQ GVM at this stage sorry wazza.
Ok thanks for the information dmw
anything for the RAM 1500 DS yet
None yet for the Ram at the moment @raybradshaw8792 .
I think the issue here is the GVM upgrade. DMW do the upgrade and that includes a 50mm lift. The diff has an issue. Nissan say “it’s because of the difference in angles of the cv joints”. DMW say “ it’s nothing to do with us, we didn’t touch the CV joints”. The owner pays $5000 for a new diff. We are still getting DMW to do our upgrade.
Hi Michael, often Dealerships themselves (or through affiliated shops) and every aftermarket brand in the industry will offer suspension lifts up to 50mm and wheel and tyre packages. It is common industry standard that on lifts up to 50mm, additional modifications are not required to be made for realignment of CV angles etc. The CV is built to go through a large range of motion inherently and a minor lift like this should not negatively effect that. However lifts higher than 50mm generally tend to require some further changes to make allowance for this e.g. adjustable upper control arms, diff drop kits etc. This is always a contentious point as some dealerships' knee-jerk reaction is "You've changed something on your car so no warranty" even though there are no legal bounds to do that.
DMW. No argument here. Just posting what happens
Do you know who can upgrade tritons?
Hi @jarradwhately2719 , Try Dobinsinsons Spring and Suspension if they already have an offering for the Triton. :) Thanks for watching! Cheers!
Don’t think that’s even possible
They can’t handle their factory gvm 😂😂😂
SSM pre rego on Jeeps
Standby 😉
Don’t bother 😂
post or pre rego--- what difference does it make--- ridiculous and gvm upgrades dont upgrade axle weights so they are a scam
Ruben.....your beard?!
You haven’t touched that component doesn’t mean you haven’t over loaded that component.
Don’t do a GVM upgrade, Buy a vehicle that will do what you want as standard vehicle ,ooooh and good luck with factory warranty after doing any modifications
