Good morning all!
Seeing a fair wack of misinformation starting to creep in regarding GVM and axle ratings to the Grenadier. Unfortunately, a lot appears to be originating at dealers.
There are two common methods for changes made to vehicles in Australia.
Post-Registration modifications will differ state to state, and it is recommended to liaise directly with your local State certifier regarding legalities. State Modifications only apply to vehicles registered in that State and do not apply for any changes made Pre-Registration. State specific modification codes and pathways can also not be used Pre-Registration.
Pre-Registration Second Stage Manufacture is available through means of a current Federal Type Approval and is Australia wide. These are modifications done before the vehicle is first registered and are not impacted by State Modification limits.
JRace Industries in North QLD currently hold a Federal Type Approval for the INEOS range. Their approval is for a GVM Increase to 4000kg and a Rear Axle Increase to 2333kg to suit all INEOS variants including the Quartermaster.
This can be carried out Pre-Registration or Post-Registration. Post-Registration currently available in QLD & VIC with NSW coming soon.
