I'd play safe and c if you can borrow a roll bar.. It helps support the screen etc. you can run without the canvas. Over here in SA the things I had to have was reversing lights. Original belts were fine.

I`ve just got a new Chassis number plate to stamp up as mine was missing,
Does any one know what weights should be on it. GS.
Max Vehicle Laden Weight
Max Front Axle Wt
Max Rear Axle Wt
In the user handbook they are
3145kg
1645kg
1580kg
And yet photos of a plate on google show
3652kg
1846kg
1910kg
It seems odd that the handbook would show less weight for the rear than the front.
The early models got issued a revised weight placard which shows the heavier weights. I can flick you some pics when I get home.
Here's mine! :)

Now the proper one not a knockoff.
Notice the numbers are stamped on, not printed and the towing information at the bottom. But then we may not want the towing information visible if we want to tow more.

Thanks guys,
The plate I have got is like Garry's and needs stamping, except the 2 ton towing is printed unfortunately or it could have been 3 tons :)
cheers

Mask around the square that says '2' and using a scotchbrite pad or similar, buff out the 2. Mask with something stronger than masking tape. Do a trial sand on the back first to c how it goes! :)Quote:

I thought the reproduction plate was printed straight on the aluminium but on close inspection turns out it is just a sticker, so it's easy to cut out the towing weight and re stamp.
