Late model 4wd’s are also particularly prone to ‘bent rear chassis’, partly due to the chassis size and thickness and the remarkably high advertised ‘rated’ towing and load capacities. Towing and carrying loads that are not ideally distributed can accelerate cracking and failure, which is made even worse when done over rough or rugged terrain.
Overloaded vehicles are dangerous and unroadworthy, heavy duty suspensions and load assist airbags will not solve the problem of overloading.
The Superior Engineering range of Weld-on chassis braces, dramatically increases the sectional strength of the chassis in key critical areas.
