Bet your dollar the JCB etc are being towed by RWD 350 /90/115/135s mate FWD aint really upto it TBH . Without the towing details from every van youre thinking of buying its guesswork mate
I think .... basically you deduct the gvm from the gtm and you get your braked towing capacity Why is it you are looking at FWD in particular?gvs wrote:right dont know which one is correct the readings from ford are
T280 MWB 115ps GROSS VEHICLE MASS (KG) 2800KG OR MAX GTM (KG) WITH QOTED AXLE RATIO 3500KG=700kg braked trailer
______________________________________________________________________________
T300 85PS MWB GROSS VEHICLE MASS 3000KG OR MAX GTM (KG) WITH QUOTED AXLE RATIO 4500KG=1500kg braked trailer
________________________________________________________________________________
T260 SWB 85PS GROSS VEHICLE MASS 2600KG OR MAX GTM WITH QUOTED AXLE RATIO 3500KG=900kg braked trailer
________________________________________________________________________________
T280 SWB 85PS GROSS VEHICLE MASS 2800KG OR MAX GTM WITH QUOTED AXLE RATIO 3500KG=700kg braked trailer
Anyone shed any light on this and what payload is available for towing ? ALL ARE FWD at moment
thanks

the 140 has a 6000 GTW = fully loaded van at 3500kgs and a trailer and goods upto 2500kgs
I would Never run at the limits or have a Tail wagging the Dog (heavier trailer than van).
