Larry,
That would be the front and rear axle weights, which are for a regular
Syncro 1200kg front and 1300kg rear for a total GVW of 2500kg

Subject: Actual Weight Distribution of loaded Vans

Volks,

I've noticed something intersting in the Vanagon Weigh Data I've been
collecting.

http://www.roadhaus.com/tires/load.html

If you look at the last column .. "Actual Weight Distribution Front/Rear"

You will see that 67% of the weighs show more weight on the front axle than
the rear.

Does anyone know of a spec for weight distrubtion for a vanagon?

This data would seem to indicated we might want to bias our front/back tire
 air pressures towards the front, if we feel our van is similary loaded.

What say you?

good tire,

larry chase
