My understanding of the limit is that it is due to the effect the weight will have on the COG and how that will affect the stability of the vehicle rather than any concerns about the strength of the roof. These are the same reasons why off road height is restricted to 50kmh.
Having seen a D3 with an extremely large tree on it's roof I believe the roof could handle a lot more than 80kg.
Spot on. [wink11]Quote:

Didn't they lift a building at Watpac with only minor damage to the vehicles roof[wink11][wink11][wink11][wink11][wink11]Quote:
