Subject:Vanagon Axle Weights
From:David Marshall
Date:Tue, 30 Mar 1999 17:13:24 -0800

Volks,

Today I stopped by the local truck scale and weighted my Syncro Double Cabs
front and rear axles.

FRONT:  1030kg  ~2260lbs
REAR:   840kg   ~1850lbs
--------------------------------------
TOTAL   1870kg  ~4100lbs

Is the 55/45 weight ratio the same on Vanagons and Westfalias?  Seems
awfully nose heavy to me.
