    Byron, there is a 2300kg towing pack available for our FG XR50T sedan which doesn't include rear springs, so would think the ute would be a similar proposition? A couple of things I would do with it though is the PBR upgrade on the brakes and a reputable brand tranny cooler (avoid the milkshake and yet not change the shift pattern/response).

    Oh, and a small tune... Well worth the dollars!

    Dave as above, you can get a 2300kg package on all of the Falcon utes. But they also have a specified GCM (Gross Combined Mass = vehicle + trailer + vehicle load (which includes towball load)). When you take the vehicles GVW + 2300kg + towball weight, I am left in some cases with not enough weight to carry me! With 3/4 tonne or 1-tonne suspension the GCM is increased.
