Load increase to 3.5 tons
Upgrading the vehicle to 3.5 tons offers great advantages in everyday life and when traveling. Many modern base vehicles with upscale equipment and a high basic weight no longer offer the customer sufficient reserves in the load. If a living cabin or other heavy equipment for vacation or everyday work is then added, the permissible total weight of the vehicle is quickly exhausted and often even significantly exceeded.
In addition to the resulting safety risk of being on the road with an unstable and overloaded suspension, drivers face hefty fines in Germany and abroad if they are thrown into the balance. The increase in the permissible total weight to 3.5 tons provides clarity and safety here. This is where the strength of the Ironman4x4 suspension comes into play!
Without complicated or vulnerable additional solutions such as air springs with extra compressor systems, the axle loads on a conventional Ironman4x4 suspension can be adjusted and entered in the registration papers without any further conversion with an additionally available expert opinion on the uplift.
Here, the uplift of the Australian suspension specialists offers another major advantage: Many uplifts are only possible in conjunction with the hardest available leaf and coil springs - Ironman4x4 suspensions can already be used for an uplift from the performance variant onwards. This means that even vehicles with a nominally more comfortable suspension can already benefit from the 3.5-tonne approval. When equipping a pickup with cabs or other superstructures, it is essential to pay attention to the permissible total weight, because excess weight is not only illegal and leads to fines, but is also dangerous in road traffic.
Original vehicle suspensions are not designed to support a high weight over a long period of time, so replacement with a reinforced suspension is always advisable. By upgrading to 3.5 tons, Genesis Import proves that Ironman4x4 suspensions are up to these demanding tasks, exceeding the standard permissible total weight, as certified by TÜV. This is therefore a certificate that the maximum total load of 3.5 tons for passenger cars can be properly entered in the vehicle documents in accordance with the ABE for the suspension.
