Roof bar loading weights.

Snap on did one similar with an 8 wheeler on the tool boxes.

Isuzu used to have a pyramid that went from 2t down to an 8 wheeler that toured the county shows pre Rona.

@123hotchef you have never been to thailand? That is hardly worth a mention there!! Overloaded there is when the body fouls the wheels and you can’t actually move. Go big or go home

oh yes Bangkok was the worse!

I work for a timber company. Our forklift drivers are not allowed to load cars and vans directly, the customer must do their own loading.
Last year, a young guy turns up in a new BMW 3 series saloon with two of those blow up roof bar things on. He’d come to pick up some decking. The forklift drops the order beside the car and he proceeds to load it on the roof.
The manager comes out and tells him to stop putting it on, take some off and come back, you will need several trips! No, the guy puts more on, and the roof collapsed in!!

well he was mr bmw so he knows best

Maybe get a caravan instead?

Shouldn't the car be at the front?

They couldn't, the MOT on that Mondeo expired over six years ago.

Slightly worrying it took 17 previous attempts . . .

But look underneath the front. there is a lot of packing there.

I'd imagine the packing is because the front stabilisers are fitted to the floor not the chassis
