The Toyota Hilux N80 GUN Series is one of Australia's most capable working and touring 4WDs — but its factory GVM fills up fast once you start adding bull bars, drawers, rooftop tents, and a full load of passengers and gear. BAW Automotive offers five certified GVM upgrade options for the Hilux, ranging from the entry-level Tough Dog kit through to the full Superior Outback Explorer coil conversion — so whether you want compliance on a budget or a complete suspension transformation, there's a stage for you.
 
Factory GVM: 3,050kg. Upgraded GVM: up to 3,670kg (Lovells) or 3,560kg (Superior). Lovells Stage 2 also upgrades GCM to 6,550kg for serious towing rigs.
 
Professionally installed by BAW Automotive in Brisbane. Wheel alignment included on all stages.
 
SUIT MODELS: Toyota Hilux N80 GUN Series — 2015 onwards (Dual Cab). Stage 4 (Rogue/GR Sport) suits Wide Track models 2022 onwards only.
 
PLEASE NOTE: Pricing does not include load-rated wheels and tyres, and does not include engineering certification for post-registration installation. Superior Outback Explorer kits are pre-registration only.
