Thinking about a VicRoads GVM upgrade? Sensible—nothing says “grown-up” like legal payload. If it’s pre-registration, you’ll need a second-stage manufacturer (SSM) kit so the higher GVM is on the compliance plate from day one. If it’s post-registration, a VASS engineer inspects the hardware (suspension, sometimes brakes/tyres), issues a certificate, and you book VicRoads to update the rego to the new GVM—bring the paperwork and a recent weighbridge ticket.
Remember: payload goes up, but tow limits and GCM usually do not, so don’t assume the caravan just lost weight. Make sure tyres, rims, and insurance reflect the new ratings, and keep every receipt and certificate handy for roadside checks and resale. When in doubt, ask your VASS engineer and VicRoads—rules change faster than Melbourne’s weather.
