The G30 uses the same parts as a G20, except for a stronger rear axle and stiffer front and rear springs with 8-bolt wheels (not 6 bolt).

The G-30 sits higher than a G20 and has a MUCH stiffer ride. Also, it's tough to get nice-looking 8-bolt rims that will fit.

How much weight are you intending to carry? A G20 may suit your needs without the punishing G30 ride.
Thanks for the info.
I'm guessing cargo isn't going to complain about the ride comfort, perhaps that's why the G30 is so stiff. It can handle the weight easily.

My question is, will the upgraded G20, have the ability to handle that kind of load (same as 1 Ton G30) and still give a comfy ride to the rear passengers?
