any one have any knowledge of what a full load limit is for a hilux 3ltr sigle cab, please? Can't seem to find the info anywhere, or maybe I,m getting older and only had a man's look and not womans look. Have a tray on the back with canvas canopy etc...thanks Uther

uther, had three Hiluxes and they always were considered one tonners. I have had 1.2 tonnes on a steel tray quite a few times, they were great like that. The Rodeo we have to replace the last Hilux can't manage the one tonne as well.
Don't forget there is a difference in the steel and aluminium trays - so they could carry more with the lightweight trays......... Mind you I don't know about the rated capacity, just the limit! Was just about as much as bloke wanted to add.

The vehicle handbook, or sales brouchures, will tell you the GVM. Then run your vehicle over a weighbridge to find what it now weighs. The difference is the max legal load.
A local sand and gravel place near here has a drive through weighbridge. Very handy. My Mazda Bravo with a steel tray comes in at exactly 2.00 tonnes with 2 people in, rather more than I expected! Still allows 1 tonne load.

My Toy 4Runner 3L TD has a GVM of 2510 and and a kerb weight of 1900 if that's any help. Why is it not on the VIN plate under the hood? Should be smack bang in the middle of the bulkhead - causing you to climb all over the engine in order to read it!
