Maximum towing capacity for 80 series ?

Same as all Nissans Nige

Max towing capacity = All weights of bogged/broken down toyotas

Hi Nige,
Until recently I had a Sept 96 DX Cruiser onto which I fitted a H/Reece HD towbar. The towbar was rated to 2500kg capacity with only 125kg ball weight. I then found out that Toyota had re-rated the 80 series to 250kg ball weight so I spoke to Hayman Reece who then supplied me with the appropriate re-rated max capacity plate for the towbar.
I also recall hearing that all 80 series manufactured after Sept 96 (I believe they were beefed up around this time) should be rated at 3500kg & 350kg ball weight to match the 100 series.
I think if you call Hayman Reece they should be able to confirm this.

Goes by law in each state.
Victoria is 1.5 times the vehicle weight with appropriate breaking system.

I believe it is 1.5 times GVM with braked trailer OR max rated weight on the towbar which ever is less. Some manufacturers state 4000kg for the max load (Disco)
