Shop Talk #2 - Is Your Rig Too Heavy? - - Core Offroad

Is your pride and joy carrying around more weight than you think? Jimmy, Angelo and Brent sit down and go over all items and accessories that can go onto a 4WD build that you either aren't told or you don't know what they weigh.
You'd be surprised how quickly it all adds up.
They also go into a commonly unknown fact about GCM upgrades that everyone should know before buying a 4WD for towing.

763kg that is insane guys! Hands down the best 4x4 shop in aus! I wish you guys had a Qld shop!

Thanks for that @Starksideofthemoon

You guys know your stuff, I am in the process of outfitting my Ranger. I weigh everything or find out the spec’s and look for a lighter version if available. I have come up with a new idea for my slide out kitchen which doesn’t include using a drop down fridge slide. This will allow the sink and induction cooktop to be lowered to a more suitable height. My wife is only 5 feet tall and the Ranger canopy floor level is 1.250 m high so totally useless and unsafe for her. My system can lower to any level . I am in the process of building it now and I will send you some video when it’s done. Love your product.

Good stuff Rod, great to hear you're getting creative with your own fit out, well done. We would love to see the kitchen layout when it's finished.

Great episode boys. Really liked the tyre comparison. Had directional 33’s on the cruiser, so meant 6 tyres. Changed over now to non directional (still 35’s though, coz they look tuff 😂😂😂😂😂😂) Adds up quick

Thanks @Flying Clansman, it does add up doesn't it!

[@adventureawakened]

@@CoreOffRoad very true. I guess one way to really reduce weight would be to buy a core off-road kitchen to fit to my canopy 😉 Nudge nudge wink wink Oh wait, 😔
