Transit 350 double cab tipper

Postby colin richard » Fri Jun 15, 2012 9:04 pm

Hi all,
I am looking to buy a transit 350 double cab tipper,but have conflicting information on how much they can carry.Seen some advertised on Ebay that say they will carry 1784 kgs.But someone told me they can only carry less than a tonne.Can any one help.
many thanks colinrichard

depends as well on the tipper body..is it high side=less carry weight. steel body is heavier but longer lasting than alloy
A steel body tipper with high sides is probberbly only gonna carry a ton before its over weight,more so if you carry tools and a few extra people,Do you need a crew cab??

if you dont need a crew cab a single cab would take more weight
