    with about a ton in the expert van, the steering felt very light and
    unstable.
    It improved some when I pumped the rear tyres up to 40 psi
    Is there anything else I can do to improve handling when fully laden?

  4. Just as a matter of interest - what is the maximum load these things are
    meant to carry?

    Just as a matter of interest - what is the maximum load these things are
    Two versions, one has 815Kg payload, the other 900Kg

    On that basis, a ton is overloaded. Especially if the weight distribution is
    poor.
