Can anybody tell me the max braked towing limit for a 1990 Mav / GQ SWB and the downward weight on the ball limit as well if possible?

Legal or practical.

Have towed a LWB GQ on a rental trailer out from O'Tooles behind my old shorty.

ive towed an MQ shorty behind the SWB GQ TB42... did it ok about 2.5 tonne.

im pretty sure that LWB is 2500kgs and SWB is 2450kgs...

SWB Patrol seems to be 2500kg braked with a max of 100kg downward on the ball?

SWB is definatly less than LWB but its only by 50kgs.

so 2500 for LWB is 2450 for SWB as said above.

it might be 2400 for LWB and 50 less for SWB, im not hundred percent sure.

but its around teh 2400 - 2500 mark
