Ex Britz 313CDI Motorhome
Hi all, hope you are staying safe out there.
On our trip over Christmas I put my 2014 313 LWB over the weighbridge at Broadford Vic.
Fully loaded with bikes on the bike rack, fresh water, fuel, food, booze & 2 people we came in at 3840kg.
Legally we are allowed 3550kg.
Being an ex Britz motorhome its fairly well kitted out (shower/toilet, cooker/fridge etc) and the cabinetry is made with strong heavy material.
As the rear sags a little (no wonder), I was looking at upgrading to the ambulance rear twin leaf springs. At a few of the wreckers I found most of the ambulances have a compliance plate stating 3880kg.
I rang a VASS engineer friend of mine re doing a GVM upgrade using ambulance suspension, no problem he said, but it needs everything from the ambulance and I need to prove it's only suspension not brakes or diff etc.
Does anyone know exactly what components make it 3880?
Are there any 3880kg ambulances wrecking in Vic? Most I have enquired about the wrecker doesn't want to remove the suspension as then it doesn't roll.
Thanks Chris
