Hey guys had a quick look through the Hilux bible and in google but cant seem to find the towing capacity for my Hilux. Its a 1986 YN67 Dual Cab with Hayman Reece setup on it. Would anybody have any ideas even roughly what it would be?

luxs are rated to 1800kg but most hitches fitted to them are only 1600kg.
I reguarly cart hay 800kg on the back and 3000kg-3500kg in tow, besids being slow it handels quite well.

My old Hayman bar was rated 1500kg tow and 150kg vertical. My lux is a LN106R, 9/91model.

Cheers guys, its main duty is to tow a racecar atm, so need to try to keep combo around the 1400 1500kg mark it seems. Ive towed car trailer (rental around 8--kg) and race car (around 1200kg) and it towed fine.
