The Challenge of Keeping Your 4WD Under GVM || Where Does the Payload Disappear?

[@garysheppard4028]

Great advice. I got a GVM upgrade on my MR Triton but that only brings the GVM up from 2900 to 3200. I have done a similar setup to yours and I was thinking I'd breeze thru on my GVM limit. Now I'm having definite 2nd thoughts. I'm going to load it up and get it weighed.

My car was heavier than I thought it would be when I bought it. For me if I didn't get the sound deadening or the drawer table I'd have saved a heap, but I love the drawer table and wouldn't get rid of it now.

@@TheBrowneTown I didn't do the sound deadening. Didn't even know it was a thing actually. But I got the drawers. A double on the drivers side and a single with drawer table on the passenger side. You are right. That drawer table is the best. I built them myself to fit the space exactly (going from a youtube video where a guy copies Drifta drawers). I used 12 and 15mm marine ply and they are solid as. But now I'm consider the weight. It's going to be interesting to get it weighed. Going to Tassie in February so gotta get it all OK'd before that. My build is very similar to yours so thanks for the inspiration and ideas!

No problems at all, let me know what it weighs when you get yours done, will be interested to know.

How easy it to is go over gvm? The thumbnail is kinda strange…

Yeah, it is. I thought that when I did it I was wondering if people would follow the text colours.
