Very, very vaguely, they usually are around 2000kg for a SWB, 2300kg for a LWB. Quite a bit less for the engine options with the smaller gearbox, or autos.

These are just an average weight for the base models for all of these vehicles but you should be able to work out what you want from there. the only vehicle I could not obtain was a SWB GQ patrol. the previous MK Patrol was 1855kg for d, 1665kg for p & 1880 kg for td.

i hope this helps you.

I was thinking the 60series would have been lighter than quoted.......

I was pretty close quesing with the sizukis
I never thought it would be so similar (exluding the Zook and Jeep)

Ow and an 80series lighter than the Rangie.......wow

The wieghts quoted for the zooks Dosn't seem right mk , as they run 970kg on rego papers for the soft top swb , which would be your ute at 908,
unless mine still has the cocaine stashed in the doors :lol:

I was told at a weigh bridge that my 80 series weigh 2080 kg including b/bar, winch & rear Kamar bar/wheel carrier ect ect.

I honestly thought it would of weighed more than that, then again my alloy rims weigh about half of the original steel rims. :D

BTW- Why no weight references to the Hilux on this thread ?
Seems to me its a popular vehical.
GXL Turbo Diesel 80 series- 6" King springs + Rancho in-cab kit- 35" BFG Muds Twin ARB airlockers.

An 80 series is 2600 every day of the week, with dual tanks, and thats a fact. I used to drive one quite a bit and we have a weigh bridge here, calibrated monthly.

2080 is way too light. More like 2800 with what you have mentioned.

An FJ60 is very similar in weight to the diesel too, 300kilos lighter, for what? another cast iron 6 cylinder? PLEASE!!

Dozoor,

These weight came fromthe local RTA office tare weight sheets supplies to all the authorised examiners here in Canberra. The weghts are supplied by the manufacturer to DOTARS (Dept of Transport and Regional Services) which then supply them to the local registering authorities.
Im only going off that. Also there are that many different models & all the weights are fifferent depending on the spec level.
It wouldnt suprise me if the manufacturers supply an average weight to DOTARS & then supplies a more accurate weight in its owners manuals ( manufacturers do funny things sometimes)

Alternatively you can click here [www.//rvcs-prodweb.dot.gov.aul]

Once you open the page go to Vehicle/RVD search. the search will be more accurate if you have the approval number (CPA number) off your compliance plate.

This will only work for vehicles bult after 1/1/1989,

I hope this helps,

Not even a 100 series Cruiser weighs that much. I would say you would have a lot of options and tools when you weighed it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It had two tanks, both full, but i am sure that would be minimal, some tools on board, oh and nev, but yeah, was over 2500 everyt ime. bullbar, snorkel, sidesteps, side bars, but it was only a pov. pack. maybe like you said the average weight, this was defintiely what they weighed in at.
