rockafellqeinstien Member 325 Member For: 16y 4m 27d Posted 23/09/09 03:26 AM Share Posted 23/09/09 03:26 AM dug this picture up of me putting a water tank on the back of my FG - any one had anything larger on their?lets just say it was a slow trip home. Pulling it up a 20 meter cliff behind the shed was much harder - btw they bounce when droped from a height. (very stong though - dont break) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked real nice and low though, bump stops where pretty squashed too.Also had a tub load of melamine with a few 3m sheets sticking out the back. That was with the 19s on the back and it pretty much bottomed out everywhere. I love my ute! So versatile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time they delevered the load the whole back had twisted relative to the main cabin of the car.It was way over 1 tonne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the time they delevered the load the whole back had twisted relative to the main cabin of the car.It was way over 1 tonne.Best one with a weigh bridge ticket was 1350kg on beefed up xls springs.. fg xr8 on the stops but that only takes a tiny 400kg with stock springs not a 1300kg load but heavy none the lessfg dragginall it took to sink the shipplenty more overloaded picks tooits one of those things in the trade... if you aint getting the check til the rubbish goes then I'll figure a way of getting it on the ute somehowcheers utemad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
