Terrain Tamer now offers GVM Upgrade kits with Parabolic Leaf Springs for the Ford Ranger, adding to the already existing range of GVM Upgrade Kits for popular Toyota Hilux and Landcruiser models.
The Gross Vehicle Mass, or GVM, is a rating set by the original manufacturer, and refers to the legal maximum weight of the vehicle. This rating incorporates the wheels and the vehicle itself, as well as everything sitting atop. Built into the GVM is also the imparted Tow Ball Mass when towing, and a Rated Axle Capacity, a limit set for how much weight should be distributed to each axle.
Adding 180kg to the Ranger’s original GVM, the Terrain Tamer Parabolic GVM Upgrade Kits include Terrain Tamer Parabolic Springs and all required suspension components, including Smart Coils, where applicable, to provide both a safe and comfortable upgrade solution, with more flex, less shock and  exceptional load carrying ability for vehicles that are pushed to their GVM and axle loading limits when towing or loaded with essential gear.
Parabolic Spring GVM Upgrade Kits are also available for the Toyota Hilux GUN/KUN 125/126 and VDJ78/79 Land Cruiser models.
Along with the rest of the full range of kits, Terrain Tamer’s Parabolic GVM Upgrade Kits have been thoroughly tested and analysed by Multidrive Technology to reach Secondary Stage Manufacturers approval and can be installed either prior to registration or on existing registered vehicles at approved workshops.
