Re: Advice on A/Ts
The reason I went all terrains is I get twice the kms out of them with good load rating and the truck there on 99% of the time is used on tarmac,construction sites and gravel roads
So no point fitting mud terrains even though they might be cheaper

Re: 185 surf airbag removal
Pretty positive it's what manufacturer says gvm is not what it weighs once you added all your mods
So all lvvta will do is check what's details are on rego which would be what's on car jam

Re: 185 surf airbag removal
Sorry just double checked
This is for MC class vehicle
Frontal impact threshold
GVM 2500kg or more
Manufactured before 2003
So if your surf has a gvm of 2500kg or more in theory you don't have to comply with frontal impact

From memory pre frontal impact for MC class is 2003
Mine is a 97 so 96 is sweet and this is what should get you through cert
It is a grey area though but I stood my ground
