GU ute chassis issues??
Re: GU ute chassis issues??
If carrying a heavy load they seem to be breaking the rear coil mounts. They tear off the chassi. There are brace kits that seem to fix the problem.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY....
Re: GU ute chassis issues??
coils, ute nd wagon have problems with tearing off the rear coil mount. as said if you get it b4 it goes its an easy fix superiour sell a kit for them. The leaf springs dnt have a problem.

Steer clear of government/ mining/ fleet vehicles. I've been told the early utes with the big white 'Telstra' type box on the rear used to snap the chassis clean in half between the cab and the box. The later ones have extra plating around this section of the chassis.jezimp wrote:i am about to buy one and wodering wat i should steer clear from if any?
I'd avoid leaf springs with air bags too -see picts.
