The most I have carried is approx 950kg, which is just under the 110's capacity. Anything heavier goes in a trailer.

Carefully stacked bricks in the back of the 110 van stacked up to about 9 inches above the bulkhead right the way to the back door plus on the passenger seat / footwell.
Had to replace the wheel bearings shortly after

Lol! 70 slabs must weigh a fair bit!
Nope - you can't play this game if it doesn't wear an LR badge!
Were they engineering bricks or solid ones?
6.5 something bricks to a block, so effectively you had less volume - not that you're allowed to play this game of course!
This was a good load of soil and see is sitting lower here than with the blocks yesterday

Yikes - that would have been heavy!!
Now were they solid old fashioned bricks or light (ish) engineering ones?

I put 2t of quarry dust in my 109 pick up. Talk about power steering, lol. Came to the first corner and I near had an even bigger load on the drivers seat, I don't think the springs ever went back up the rite way,
2 ton!
I drive like a granny with big loads on the bed - you just can't take anything for granted!
What do you think the chassis (no rot!) would take before it failed some where?

Old fashioned heavy bricks from a wall I demolished - and it did affect the handling somewhat!

I put a pack of blocks in the back of my 90 once, was quite a bouncy ride. Wont be doing that again.
I put 50 blocks in the back of a Kangoo van once and smashed the gearbox to bits:doh:
