Rhys was totally professional and explained the total process, totally recommend RhysPosted on Google Tim Maywald18/06/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Reece is an absolute legend! Anyone towing a heavy load that doesn’t go to Weigh My Ride before making any vehicle modifications is absolutely crazy. Reece has plenty of experience and qualifications in mechanics, suspension and towing, as well as the right gear to make a proper assessment of how to get the safest and most comfortable set up. And best of all, he gives you all the options, his honest opinion, and isn’t pushy. I knew I was going to be on the limit for my tow ball weight and possibly have other issues with my 24ft SRC behind the D Max, so was expecting major suspension mods and an expensive upgrade. Instead I came away spending less than a a quarter of what I thought I’d have to, and all the weight distribution numbers are now excellent. And best of all, the van has gone from being a bit of a pig to being awesome to tow. I can’t recommend him highly enough and was the best money I’ve ever spent.Posted on Google Bluey Wood14/06/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Why do I Need to Weigh my Trailer?
Safety First
Incorrect weight distribution or overloading can lead to trailer sway, reduced braking performance, poor steering control and suspension issues.
Weighing ensures your setup is stable and safe on the road.
Stay Legal
Authorities across Victoria regularly conduct roadside checks. If your setup exceeds legal limits, you could face fines and penalties, defect notices and insurance complications.
A professional weighing ensures you remain compliant.

Excess weight puts stress on critical components, suspension, brakes and tyres.
Regular weighing helps prevent costly damage and extends the life of your trailer.
