In particular the 110 Isuzu, which has the same engine, mostly the same transmission (except the Perentie has tapered rollers in the transfer) and the same diffs and can still tow 2.3tonne more than the Perentie!Quote:

Not that I'd want to tow anywhere near that with either.

The perenties are 110,s the defers came out later:)
From the 1986 110 Australian supplement owners handbook:-
Front axle max load
V8 1200 Isuzu 1300 6x6 1500
Rear axle(s) max load
County (wagon) 1750 Hardtop 1850 Cab/chassis 1900 6x6 4000
GVM County 2950 Hardtop 3050 Cab/chassis 3200 6x6 5500
GCM County 6950 Hardtop, cab/chassis, 6x6 7050
This shows that the maximum trailer mass for the County is 4000, but only 3850 for the cab/chassis and 1550 for the 6x6 assuming maximum GVM.
The owner's handbook (that this is a supplement to) shows maximum trailer mass of 4000 (fully braked), 3500 (overrun brakes) except for the 2.5 diesel, which was, of course, not sold in Australia.
From this I would expect that it should be fairly easy to get the towing weight increase approved. I assume the army towing masses are reduced for offroad use.

Yep, my head is around that.Quote:

Later Defenders with ABS can "only" tow 3500Kg.
