Understanding GVM and GCM
A common question we get at ARB revolves around the difference between GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass) And GCM (Gross Combinational Mass).
In Australia, the GVM of a 4WD vehicle is the manufacturers maximum net weight of the vehicle. This figure includes the total weight of the car whilst empty, ball load of any trailer being towed, people, fuel, accessories and luggage.
In contrast to this, the GCM accounts for the maximum combined weight of both the vehicle, and the trailer mass.
here is an equation to help better understand if you need a GVM Upgrade for you vehicle
Firstly find out your Factory Payload Capacity:
Manufacturer’s GVM _____kg
LESS the Kerb weight of Vehicle _____kg
= Factory Payload capacity _____kg
Lastly find out how much payload you actually have
Payload _____kg
LESS Weight of passengers & driver _____kg
LESS Additional liquids _____kg (Eg: extra fuel if fitted with long range tank, water, etc.)
LESS Accessories _____kg
LESS Luggage _____ kg
LESS Trailer ball load _____kg
= Actual Payload
If you finish on a negative number, you’ll be over your Factory GVM.
OME offers multiple Federally approved Pre-Registration GVM Upgrades for a variety of vehicles. To find out more about the OME GVM Upgrades please Click here.
At ARB We are frequently asked why we don’t do GCM Upgrades.
As it stands, there is no federal approved legislation in Australia for an increase in GCM to a light vehicle. As a company, ARB is stringent in only offering Federally approved upgrades that are relevant for all states of Australia. The case for ARB to begin offering GCM upgrades relies on the legislation of Australia. GCM upgrades will be considered for development by ARB only in the case that changes are made, and if it is safe, reliable and federally approved.

ARB Celebrates 40 Years
This year at ARB, we’re celebrating our 40th anniversary and we have some big plans in store, with a special new project called Off Road Icons.
In 1975, Anthony Ronald Brown created the first ever ARB bull bar in his back shed. At the time, no one could have predicted how significant that project was, nor the 4WD accessories movement he would set into motion.
40 years on and ARB is undoubtedly an off road icon. To celebrate, we’re selecting four of the most iconic 4WDs of the last four decades, restoring them to their former glory and pitting them up against one of Australia’s most iconic 4WD destinations… the Simpson Desert.
To have your say and help us select the four most iconic 4WDs since 1975, visit our Off Road Icons website and tell us in 25 words or less, which vehicle you think deserves a guernsey and why.
One lucky entrant will win a 47L ARB Fridge Freezer, transit bag and wireless fridge monitor valued at over $1500.
Once you’ve submitted your entry, keep an eye on the web page and our social media channels for tonnes of updates regarding the final vehicle selection, restoration progress and trip preparation.
Introducing our first off road icon
We asked you to help us choose four of the most iconic 4WDs from the last four decades as part of our Off Road Icons project. We couldn’t be more pleased to announce the first Off Road Icons vehicle – the Toyota LandCruiser 40 Series.
The Toyota LandCruiser 40 Series was Toyota’s best selling vehicle in the 60’s and maintained a healthy 24-year lifespan on the market. More than one million were sold around the world with 121,000 sold in Australia. The reason for its popularity was clear; it was the first four wheel drive designed with the everyday family in mind. Its durability stands the test of time with many seen on the roads today. In a testament to its popularity, in 2006 Toyota developed the FJ Cruiser, a modern version of its old counterpart.
The Toyota LandCruiser 40 Series, Australia’s first standard family wagon, known for its versatility and reliability, it’s no wonder it was voted in as one of Australia’s most iconic 4WDs.
Key Stats:
- 24 years in production, from 1960 – 1984
- The most versatile vehicle of its era
- One million sold around the world (121,000 in Australia)
- Short (FJ40), middle (FJ43) and long (FJ45) wheelbase variants
- Used by farmers, rural drivers and everyday Australian families
Unique Features:
- Removable doors, roof, and windshield
- Folding jump seats allowed for two more passengers and maximum cargo space
- Compatible with GM’s small block engines
