After many years of tent camping we have moved over to the touring caravans.
At beginning of the year we purchased a cheap caravan to try it out, as with the eldest lad getting to that age of I not going on holiday with mom and dad, the packing up and setting up was beginning to become a task. Well to say the least all loved it and we have just upgraded the caravan not new but we like it. The first 2 jobs were to fit a motor mover and a new alko stabiliser hitch. Now I have got a little confused with regards to nose weights. I know the car has a max nose weight 100kg and the tow ball has a max weight of 130kg and reading up the new stabiliser hitch also has a nose weight of 130kgbut on the van recommendations the nose weight is 80kg but am I right in thinking that this was due to the old type hitch lock being fitted or do I still need to get the nose weight to 80kg
