Too slow. Unless you bank with Nedbank than you bet me to it
reflecting.
rechardt 2015/06/26, 10:59 AM
This is going to be a good exercise. I think to many people take the load
capacity of there vehicles and offroad trailers for granted and the
subsequent overloading contributing to excessive tyre wear and fuel
consumption.

Agree. Taking mine along packed as if I was going on a long trip. Drawer
System, RTT ect.
rechardt 2015/06/26, 12:19 PM
Its interesting because if you have a trailer with a 150l water tank.
Which is roughly 150 kilos if its filled at point of departure its an extra
150kg one forgets about. So maybe a good idea to fill those as well
before weighing in.
JurgenH 2015/06/26, 12:28 PM
I'd like to know what mine weighs. Payment made, FNB to Nedbank, so
not sure when it'll reflect.

Jurgen that's true. Like your Jeep. After market front..rear bumpers and
a bulky spare wheel carriers does change the Tare weight. ..plus a few
extra kilos with that winch an all those light bars..

I think if you own a 4x4 a caravan should be allowed. If the caravan is

what you use when you go to GTG's

This is the 4x4 Action Group on the 4X4 Community Forum.

Caravans can't go off-road.;D
Besides, they are too low & slow & will delay the process.
Real men use Off-Road trailers.:)
Obviously caravans like the Conqueror Commander & Jurgen Xcape are
OK.
But we don't need some oke pitching with his 9m long, 7 sleeper Sprite...

incident happens

Is there a winning biscuit for the vehicle (excluding trailer/caravan) that

weighs the most? I'm thinking % over TARE or something like that?

Will it have any consequences with your insurance if you are over your
vehicle's legal weight specifications.

YES, JMPD will be there. You will be rewarded appropriately.
Not quite sure which flavor biscuits they issue. IIRC they are either Pink
or White.

Looking at my TARE vs GVM today I realised I'm only legally allowed to

pack around 470kg into (and on top of) my Disco 4. Seems way too low
for a 7 seater. 7x70kg adults and there no remaining weight for their
luggage.
With my current setup, I expecting to way overloaded.

I need to go first and as you come through the weighbridge you will be
handed your gift and certificate, that way we don't clutter the DROS and
have some control over the process ;D

Am following this thread with interest.

Raymond, if the men are willing, please let them also write down their
list of things loaded into their 4x4's or trailers and post it here on this
thread. It is going to be interesting to compare with my result from the
weigh bridge day last year.

Oldtimer 2015/08/01, 01:38 PM
Well done to all involved. I did not weigh as I am busy with my Puma's
mods.....
Was good meeting Raymond and seeing some old friends again.
I had to leave for Nigel and HenriS's place to pick up the bending brake I
bought from him. I had to travel past Qualter's place......jis I was scared
then, did not want to stop at the robots for fear my tyres may get
stolen.
But then, I had to run the gauntlet through Brakpan's central district......I
was even more scared........jis you okes stay in wild country down
there......
Crips 2015/08/01, 01:48 PM
A BIG thank you to Tuffstuff who made all of this possible.

Had a great breakfast and hot chocolate and a beer afterwards.
Got a awesome fire extinguisher and a certificate and a 4x4 Action Group
cap.
A big thanks to all who attended, without you non of this would have
been possible.

Thanks Raymond and Tuffstuff for an awesome experience, breakfast

and the drinks after were excellent. #thumbsup
Mad Manny 2015/08/01, 02:28 PM

A VERY successful event. Thank you Raymond & the Tuff Stuff team.
I got, for my R100.00:
Coffee (2 cups).
Breakfast.
A Key Holder.
A Fire Extinguisher (lik e I drive a D3 )
My Fortuner weighed.
My Conqueror weighed.
A Certificate with the weights.
A 4x4 Action Group Cap.
Two beers.
But, most importantly, awareness of how easily mods on a vehicle & a

loaded trailer can be an overweight problem...
Spook's rig won the day = Ford F250 & Conqueror Commander tipping
the scales at 6 tons!

Those Disco's were heavy.

Not Land Cruiser heavy.
Not F250 heavy.
But heavy.
The Hummer H3 is nearly a ton lighter than a D4?
Spook 2015/08/01, 02:49 PM
A big thank you to Raymond, Tuff Stuff and all involved in today's weigh
in.
It's highly appreciated.
For us it's back to the drawing board - Both the F250 and the
Commander will be put on a very strick diet
Got to shed quite a few kilo's :eek:
Thanks again guys!!

My tanks we're full. However to compensate for the empty trailer;D
Oosies 2015/08/01, 08:17 PM
Thanks Raymond. Was a great eye opener and realisation that I am in

trouble the next time I pack to go away. Tip: avoid weighbridges :D
Jeep with no spare tyre, no winch, with all accessories removed except
steal bumper came in at 2480 when max GMV is 2540.
Jurgen XT which is relatively empty that I had to fill water tanks to get
some weight was 1060.
Going forward, I will travel in convoy and evenly distribute my gear

between fellow forumites...

Do what Kingsley Colgate does and convert your water tanks to beer
kegs (he does Rum though) so you can make use of them...

thank you Tuffstuff, D4 and I, need a small diet. But my metalian can

Good to know where we stand with our vehicle weights, also good news

Actually, the Pajero has a GVM of 3030kg with a TARE of 2275kg. Based
on my weights yesterday, SWAMBO is able to pack 950kg in the car and

Raymond. Thank you for an Awsome morning. The Landy tipped in at

2750kg
300kg short of the gvm. Still need to load full tanks of diesel, full freezer,
clothes, booze, water tank on roof and SWAMBO 😉 And I thought my
packing was slim and trim. Don't know where to start..

Mad Manny was packed, or so he claims. Yet we weighed the same to

Mmmmmm soming fishy here, maybe even me..!! So no finger pointing
and or blame..
The big question now... are we all going to give up 4x4 and camping due
to weight problems..?? Are we going to sell our rooftop tents and sleep
in the car..?? Are we going to reduce our water tanks to 5 litres only,
stop boozing and poach animal for the braais..??
Some decisions needs to be taken..??
