Hi, need to pull my camper up a slight incline with no room to get a tow vehicle in front. Planning to use a ratchet type pulley but need a rough idea of the weight to buy the right one. its a 73 bay with all the normal camper interior parts.
In Kg if possible.
Cheers Karl

1640 front axle 1860 lbs rear
744 kg 844 kg
hope that helps. I have used a high lift jack to winch my bay out of things before, 6k lbs pulling power, never needed it all. otherwise what kind of shape is your rear bump/frame in? can you just nugdge it along with some wood and a blanket to protect the paint and a second car?

give a man a watch and he'll allways know what time it is. give him two and he can never be sure again.
Things are rarely just crazy enough to work, but they're frequently just crazy enough to fail hilariously.

I've used an old, beat 1500lb come-along to pull both my 79 Bus and 70 Westy up on to trailers, the Westy with flat tires.

Re: How much does a camper weigh?
Hi, thanks guys, I think that sorts out my problem, I was planning on a 1250kg ratchet puller so I think I've got it covered.
Thanks again Karl.
