To find the towing weight of any vehicle,look for the vehicles specification plate which is usually under the bonnet or sometimes inside the cab.Normally ,it will show four weights.Max.front axle weight,Max. rear axle weight,max total vehicle weight and maximum total vehicle and trailer combined weight.All these weights are for the vehicle in a LOADED state and none of the four individually must be exceeded.Max.vehicle weight is often referred to as GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) and max.weight combined with loaded trailer is GTW (Gross Train Weight).In theory,if you take GTW - GVW,you arrive at the total max.weight for your trailer with its load.Remember,however,that trailers too have maximum design weights too,so look also for your spec.plate on your trailer.Also be aware that trailers may or may not have a braking system of their own which again alters their potential weight carrying ability.In summary,If the plate on the Transit were to say GVW 3500kgs and GTW 5000Kgs,then max.loaded trailer weight which should be towed must not weigh over 1500kgs.Hope this is helpful,John.P.S.Also check that towbar fitted is designed for desired weight to be towed !!!
