Hey Al! Langley is about an hour east of Vancouver. I have weighed the van per axle as well.. here's the info from my 2 lighter weighs. The van is '90 Syncro Westfalia: 1160 kg - 2557 lb front 1130 kg - 2491 lb rear 2290 kg - 5048 lb total weight 1200 kg - 2645 lb front 1120 kg - 2469 lb rear 2310 kg - 5092 lb total weight These weights are with 2 adults up front, loaded water, propane, fuel @ approx 83% full, and loaded for a weekend of camping. Hope this info helps. That's why I run Yokohama's with 1710 lb load rating, and 8 plies (D rating) on our van. Take care, Harry. > And where is Langley?
