Just wondering if anyone on the West Coast has dealt with Malaga Suspensions for a GVM upgrade on a 150 Prado (or other vehicles for that matter)?
I got in contact with them after reading about some GVM work they did on an FJ, and was supprised to hear they are willing to offer a fully engineered and compliance plated upgrade to 3500kgs GVM for the 150 Prado. The upgrade uses Dobinsons springs and Bilstein shocks (although he did confirm they use the German imported shocks and not the Aus spec'ed ones) and can offer a lift of around 2.5" and hopefully sneak through with only a brake test and not requiring a full lane change test.
Still waiting for a final quote but it will be in the $3k ball park drive in drive out.
I didn't confirm with them, but fully expect this would be a WA only registration upgrade (we just moved back to WA after a few years on the East coast with no plans of doing it again!).
