I took it down the coast once for a few days without he front fridge, geni or a crap load of stuff in the front box. With the kitchen open I had to put my hi-lift under the back corner to stop it tipping as soon as lent on the bench  >:(

Hey Moggy,

OK, I went out and bought a ball weight thingy.

It only goes down to 100 then drops all the way to 0.

The first pic shows what I mean.



I then set it under as close as I could to the end of the Tregg hitch o get my reading and drew a pencil line on it.



This is the finished result and by using a ruler, I reckon its come in at about 65kg.



So, what ya reckon Fart-blossom?

We'll be away the week-end of the 10/11th and also have a bit on, but i'm sure we can get something worked out ok.
The Caddy is a few weeks away yet, so the camper can remain in the garage.
I hope you do buy it, I would like to see a swagger end up with it.

Cheers, Kev

Great bit of kit there Jeepers. You could put it to good use by offering to measure your customers ball weight for a fee when you are doing your rounds. Nothing like a bit of xtra cash on the side..Could go into the Caddy's fuel running account. ;D ;D ;D

You could have bought a few fish weighing scales and used them. Some cheap spring loaded ones are good for 20kg and only cost a few bucks each.
Then you could throw them on the giveaway post when you were finished.
Cheers

Knowing Jeepers, it's not likely...
