Just curious, as I am now heading to a different VASS engineer for the GVM upgrade and he hasn't mentioned this. my upgrade is to 3300, not 3500. I am after these values for a 1997 GQ patrol.
Usually you will find this data in the vehicle spec sheets online or in your vehicles user manual if you have it. http://www.nissan.com.au/~/media/Fil...ar%202016.ashx
The GU is rated standard at 1500Kg Front and 1800kg rear. (3300kg total)The engineer should only need an analysis if you are exceeding the factory limits. I'm not sure where you'll find the axle limits for the GQ, I know the GVM is on the vehicle plate, but not sure if the individual axle limits are? I've searched on the Road vehicle decriptor site http://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/rvd-pre1999/index.htm but it does not give the required details other than GVM is 2960kg http://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/rvd-pre199.../pdf/10083.pdf
