I found that both of my caravans were heavier than I expected them to be when I got them weighed. The first van needed some mods for an ATM increase and a new compliance plate. I also found that I was almost at my Ranger’s GCM with no passengers and the tub almost empty. When we emptied the van to sell it there was a lot of stuff that we didn’t need and this didn’t go into the new van. I now have an Isuzu NPS and with a van that weighs 3.6T I have capacity to spare. However when I weighed it the van was still several hundred kg more than I expected it would be. I think a professional weigh service is great - particularly if you are close to the limit or don’t know what the numbers mean. However, don’t let the cost be an excuse not to get your setup weighed. There are plenty of free or low cost weighbridges available. My local concrete recyclers will weigh you for free and many public weighbridge only charge a small amount - I was weighed in one place for $10.

Hi guys, we enjoyed your episode. We are currently in the process of getting a Lovell's suspension upgrade, we have just bought a new Ford Ranger Platinum, which will give us 4 tonne and we're also getting a BTC upgrade by Lovell's with a Brake towing capacity of 4 tonne. Our combined GCM will be 8 tonne which was originally 6400. Our caravan will be an Urban Xtreme which will be about the same size and possible around the same weight as yours. We are getting built, so we don't have it yet. We are putting a Concept Canopy of the back of the Ranger as well. Just thought we'd share 😄 Happy travelling, Happy Campers xx

Since we commented previously, we have had our car at Lovell's for over a month now waiting for the newest of upgrades, unfortunately for us they have had a few more issues with the new 4000t GVM (something to do with tyre testing) so it won't be available until Feb, a bit too long for us to wait so we went ahead and this is what we ended up getting .. ​@happycampersaustralia
