The towbar on my mk5 transit (SWB minibus) is rated at 1200/1800kg un/braked.
Is this all a transit can pull? Seems a bit light to me. Am thinking of using it to pull a car transporter for a lightweight race car; the overall weight would still be under 1800kg but I don't feel comfortable getting too close to the limit.
I spoke to the fabricators I use about strengthening the bar - they said it's no problem, but I'm trying to find out what the max towing capacity of the vehicle (not the towbar) is?
