Sorry in the delay. But yes ALL XX7 sandman's were 2000kg in the later models. Cant remember the date change. Mid 78 I believe. I did a post on here a while back with a approx. date. The XX7 sandmans before the introduction of the 2000kg were all 1950kg.
XU4 was 1950kg. right through the HZ build.
XU3 was ALWAY 2200kg in HZ Sandmans. But also was used for ALL other HZ vans and utes that were not XX7 or XU4

I'd love to know the reason behind sandman being upped to 2000, yet other panelvans with passenger tyres staying at 1950. I wonder if the extra 50kg was to account for the quad light front and spoiler? I have no idea on HZ GTS sedans, but did they have a change in weight at the same time to their normal sedan counterparts?
No doubt it was to do with the extra weight of a few things. Front, Spoiler, stickers? Maybe the gts wheels are heavier than standard wheels?
