Technical Step too far

I am filling in a form to have the weight of my Broadway FB increased. Don't know and have struggled to find out answers to the following questions Axle 1 and Axle 2 Disk or Drum Brake? Suspension Type front and rear leaf/strut/air.  Any help will be appreciated

Based on the questions you ask, you need to employ http://www.svtech.co.uk/vehicles/motorhomes/ or a similar company.

Hi
    Surely these questions should be on the Technical spec some where as in most cases it is a paper exercise only a lot of MH's are upgraded from 3500kgs to 3800kgs without any mods You could try another owner who has upgraded and copy his data plates

For axle weights look at your Certificate of Conformity. Para 16.2 gives them, front and back. A quick glance under your van will indicate whether the brakes are disc or drum, and whether the suspension is strut front and leaf rear or whatever.

I think, based on the questions asked in the first post, Tiggs needs expert support. What seems obvious to one person can be a complete unknown to another.

What seems obvious to one person can be a complete unknown to another is certainly the case in this instance. I am a researcher with a PhD but have struggled to find answers to the questions I asked. I need the information to fill in the SVTech form. I am unable to speak to them to have their advice as they are closed for Christmas. But I am happy to wait until they return.

Your weight plate on the door surround -cab door, passenger side -  will show the axle weights on the last 2 lines. Line 3 the front and line 4 the rear.

Peugeot Boxer Front brakes are going to be Disc brakes, rear brakes would of thought are drum brakes but you should check. Front suspension will be strut & rear suspension will be leaf. You should be able to confirm this by looking at brakes through holes in wheels & suspension by looking under. Cheers.

Look through the front wheels to see what looks like a bright steel record, probably even with fine lines like the track. That is the "disc" of disk brakes. One section of the disk will covered by a heavy steel casting which is the caliper.

If you can see the same through the rear wheels then you have rear disk brakes. A torch helps because of the High reflection. Drums are almost always black.

The front suspension will be struts, between the left and right wheels at the back will be a bar. If that bar is bolted to a flat strip going front to rear on both sides and curved like a bow then that is a leaf spring.

Air springs look rubber doughnuts between the cross bar and the chassis rail but you would have some valves similar to tyre valves to recharge the air springs.
