    Correct, 2500kg max.
    There is a mechanical override drum brake system available rated to 3500kg. Same as on Ifor Willams trailers & the likes. Meets EU regs to 3500kg so applicable here in NZ too.

    Which is crazy. Disk brakes are so more effective than drums. They dispate heat so much better. Drums bloody overheat. Useless bloody things
