I have just purchased a 2004 Freelander which has a noseweight allowance of 140KG, my 1994 Elddis XL Typhoon has an Alko 3004 Stabilising head on it, does the A frame of my caravan have a weight limit if so how do I find this out?

The Alko stabiliser hitches have a max noseweight of 100kg, you can probably confirm this on the Alko website.

Hope this helps.

Most vans use ALko chassis and I think they have 100 kg limit but someone may be more precise later.in relation to your own caravan.The tow bar should also have a figure on the visible struts.

Thanks everyone I think for safety I will stick to just under 100KG, which is much better than the 75KG I was allowed with the mondeo
