Pedders Tow & Load Assessment

Ensure your vehicle is fit for towing heavy loads with an assessment from our mechanics. We use the Pedders Tow & Load Assessment to calculate your vehicle weight relevant to a range of likely driving scenarios.

Our team will first carry out a thorough brake, steering and suspension check. Then, we use the Weight Matrix Program to calculate the safety and performance of your vehicle when towing or load carrying different weights.

To ensure safety and reliable handling, it’s important to know your vehicle’s current weight, as well as what it will weigh when towing or load carrying. Talk to our team to book an assessment.
