Pre Reg 4499kg GVM Upgrade to Greg’s Y62 Patrol Series 5

[@bavan]

I'm so impressed with this build! It's amazing to see a pre-reg 4499 gvm upgrade come to life! Great job DASH OffRoad!

[@DASHOffRoad]

Thanks 🙏

[@tonyf7997]

Exactly same as my LC200 done through VEOP in Brisbane - full DMW Build and engineering although DMW inspect and sign off! Now waiting for the new LS16 revision to get it to the 7990 GCM - happy days!

[@MickWhite-b8p]

Always impressed with your work Dash

[@iiankirk2661]

👏👏👏 nice job yet again, 4 weeks to go for mine to be done… be interesting how the post rego goes with it. Just for info from a gvm upgrade regarding insurance, spoke to my insurance company, all they require is the sign off from Regency Park / engineering certificate and they will then include the modifications upgrade to my insurance to cover the car.

[@DASHOffRoad]

Great news

[@brettleonard8602]

My only concern with a GVM upgrade is the the roof is a R.O.P.S roll over protective structure. Is that roof designed to take an extra tonne in the advent of a roll over? If not and I doubt it would it will just pancake crushing everyone inside. I have never seen this issue raised. If you could provide an answer that would be really appreciated. Awesome rig btw👌

[@shanenorwell8580]

I think you’ll find any standard vehicle doesn’t have any sort of “rops” rating and in a roll over the roof just squash’s anyway.

[@brettleonard8602]

@@shanenorwell8580 whatever protection it may provide is certainly diminished if not nullified by adding another tonne.

Would love to see a follow up video on the warranty side. Cheers all the vids are 👍 Great

[@DASHOffRoad]

Please explain the follow up vid that you are wanting to see, I’m not sure if I understand 🤷‍♂️

When are you coming to Sydney?

Interesting that you can fit 295s to ROH Vapours with a +40 offset, (same as standard offset) and not need flares

Will Nissan stand by their warranty after that work?

[@Southern_Cross_Adventures]

I am curious about what if you are doing PREreg interstate?

[@DASHOffRoad]

Yes, we do this all the time. Just give 4x4DNA a call 📞

[@Parks4x4]

Looks great. What is the total height of the patrol to the top of the roof rack? Looking do the same upgrade and wanted to see if it fits into the garage. Thanks

[@DASHOffRoad]

I reckon it would be around 2.1m

Hey guys great video are you going to look at doing post reg GVM and GCM upgrades?

Yes sure 👊

[@iiankirk2661]

@@adamsurf76 I am getting the DMW 4499kg gvm upgrade, it gives you the 7999kg GCM but your still can only tow 3500kg. But in saying so with the new changes to GCM and gvm upgrades in QLD that will flow to the other states it sets us up to for a overall GCM change.

Hi, good info thanks. Seeking feedback relative to front radar. I’ve had my car GVM upgrade SSM by another company. Very happy so far with results. So no drama there. I am having trouble though with my front radar. Partial obstruction warning keeps coming up randomly. No particular pattern as to why. I have taken to Nissan dealer who gave feedback that it’s because the car has been lifted. (Therefor not giving any assistance) Tough dog springs so quite typical height. 40mm. Do you guys encounter the front radar partial obstruction issue at all due to lifts?? If so do you have a work around or just live with it.

[@DASHOffRoad]

Lift hasn’t got anything to do with it.

[@peterstone5356]

@@DASHOffRoad an uneven lift will have everything to do with it, the forward looking radar needs to be at the exact same angle as when the vehicle was at OEM specs, this should be measured and adjusted after the lift is fitted. Usually this is 0deg on a flat surface, some adjust to -1deg to -2deg to account for fuel and passenger loading

Where can buy the suspension ?

What licence is required to drive that? Standard?

@@DASHOffRoad I have purchased a SuperPro bush set for all arms, but unfortunately, I havent thought of the ball joints. Now, if I decide to buy the OEM arms, these bushes will be wasted, unfortunately.

Another great video, showing your awesome work. Are the pre-rego upgrades available in NSW, or can you do/organise NSW pre -rego? Had a mate get his done at a Dash Agent/Stockist post registration here in NSW on his 62. Is there a benefit or advantage in having it done pre-rego?

[@DASHOffRoad]

Yes sure, we probably do a NSW pre Reg every week. Just give us a buzz and can organise for you 👌

[@JovyFuch]

What black rims do you recommend for the ti patrol

[@DASHOffRoad]

That’s a very subjective question

[@80sShred]

I have been told by my dealer in caloundra that they won't allow a pre rego gvm, as Nissan has told dealers it is not legal any more and can't be done.

[@DASHOffRoad]

We do it every week, it can most certainly be done

[@80sShred]

@DASHOffRoad it can be done, but they (NISSAN) are stopping it.

[@andrewbrown596]

I am so jealous I live in Dubai I have a Y62. I love them.However we don’t have anything close to your set up here. The best we can do is simple mods. We can’t get the bumbers
